analass said: That was pretty much my thinking before I realised I was bi. I only ever used to date girls but I always craved sexual contact with guys. Once I tried it, it opened up (literally!) so many other opportunities and experiences that I never again considered myself straight. I say, if you get the chance you should go for it, but make sure you have the mind-set of being open to changing your sexual orientation. It's worth it though!
This is really the sentiment behind my argument over terminology. Being bisexual to some degree is, I suspect, WAY more common than is presently admitted. By claiming to be straight when you're really bi/bi-curious keeps it in the closet. Being straight is acceptable, being gay is becoming acceptable, but being bisexual still causes confusion and accusations of "being gay but in denial". If those amongst us who are are bi could be open about it, it would make life easier. Maybe in another 50 yrs! Meanwhile, have great sex with whoever gives you the best orgasms!
