Hello... I am a bisexual female... well actualy i dont consider myself bi I love people bodies sex ect.... anyway in high school i noticed a lot of girls considered them sleves bi but they actully were not bi they were not even attracted to other girls they were just claiming to be to be "cool" it was just a "phase" i was wondering when being bisexual or homosexual became cool... i mean since when is it a fad.. is this everywhere or just in my little town.?
no it's everywhere. everyone seems to be claiming to be bisexual coz it's 'cool' for some reason. i'm bi, but i don't see the cool factor of it and i never have. most girls and boys claiming to be bi get over it in a few years. it is just a phase for them...but it's pathetic and quite annoying. i couldn't trust a bisexual girl at this age, which is a shame, because there are some of us who ar actually genuine x
Why is it important to make the distinction? Whether they are just experimenting and it is a one time thing or they are bi for life, what does it matter? I believe that we are all a little bit bi, whether we will admit it or not.
I have noticed that either climing to be bisexual or actually being bisexual is becoming rather chic among young people, especially girls. To this old "Stonewall Generation" bi guy (who came out bi after years of being exclusively gay), I don't quite know what to make of it. On the one hand, I'd like to think of it as a direct result of 35 years of queer liberation; it's certainly easier for young people today to come out that it was for my generation. I'd also like to think of young people coming out bi as an ackowledgement that our sexuality is more fluid than many are willing to admit -- especially when we're young -- and that for some of us, our sexual orientation does indeed change as we grow older. On the other hand, the fact that more young people are coming out as bi instead of as gay or lesbian is an unfortunate testament to the power of the anti-gay Religious Right in this country and a lack of willingness to "fight the powers that be." This is especially true of boys; it's no secret that homophobia falls down much harder on males than on females -- and the situation for bi and gay boys (and men) is likely to get only worse in the wake of the sex-abuse scandal that has rocked the Roman Catholic preisthood in the U.S. and the Michael Jackson child-molestation case. Homophobia is a primarily male problem. -- Skeeter
Im straight. I dont think being bi is cool, and its not that way at my school, but if p0eople say theyre bi just to look cool i might jack them in the face. I know a few bi people, and its cool with me if theyre like that, it doesnt affect what I think about them. and most homophobes are actually gay.
i have noticed this trend in my town too...i don't know about you but i live in a very WASPy area and i would geuss that being "bi" (quotes symbolize the fake bi) allows for a person (aspecially a teenager) to feel oppressed by the man when they otherwise would not be. it is a rebellion because at least i know that being gay is the worst type if subculture in our religious right america. in the end i guess this person will wise up to their self...but there is nothing wrong with exploring...
a lot of the girls at my school have one lesbian experience then decide that theyre bi. and theyre never quiet about it-belive me. one chick i know hooked up with a girl for the first time and flipped out afterwards. she kept washing her hands because she didnt feel clean. she still tells people shes bi though.
WRONG. There are two kinds of people who don't like gays: 1) Those who are simply following their religious beliefs (Most don't know anyone personally who is gay) and 2) Extremists such as Fred Phelps and Paul Cameron, who are so consumed with fear and loathing over homosexuality that they spend every waking minute of their lives bashing those of us who are quite comfortable with being gay or bi and are out of the closet. Their extremism is a dead giveaway that they are paranoid that someone will find out they have homoerotic feelings of their own. In fact, Cameron was ultimately "outed" by a Boston gay newspaper in 1999 after it became clear that his overtly graphic descriptions of male-on-male sex were such that only someone with first-hand experience in male-on-male sex himself could describe it in such graphically accurate detail. That's the REAL definition of homophobia: An irrational fear of one's OWN homoeroticism. This is why those who oppose gay rights on religious grounds go apeshit when you accuse them of being homophobic. It's akin to opponents of affirmative action going ballistic when you accuse them of being racist. And by the way, just what do you mean by saying that "If people say they're bi just to be cool, I might jack them in the face?" Wouldn't a simple "Oh, yeah? Prove it!" suffice? -- Skeeter
i recon a lot of people are saying tehre bi to be cool but think about it if thats what they percieve as cool atleast were not being gay bashed you know? maybe its good for this generation to have that kind of acceptance which will hopefully be ingrained in them now. peace
SO true. And people have a hard time distinguishing between love and infatuation, or just a plain hormone rush (those don't last very long). I think people need to SLOW DOWN with this whole "I just KNOW I love him/her!" thing.
I don't see how my being attracted to guys as well as girls is a lack of willingness to fight the powers that be... I actually think it would be easier being gay, and I have told my friends that I am gay, because I'm sure that otherwise it will be seen as just trying to be cool or a passing phase that will blow over. In response to the OP, I haven't really seen it around here but I have heard many reports of bisexuality being 'cool', so I guess it is a widespread thing.
