So, people…

I have a question for you. Ask your friends…

Do you think that everyone has bisexual tendencies, or thoughts or desires?
Or rather – do you think that everyone has had them at some point?

Just curious. My buddy and I had differing opinions on this topic last night, and she believes I’m nuts. I won’t tell you what I think until I get some responses.

I think, if people are truly honest with themselves, they’ll see that they’ve found people of both sexes attractive. Do all people get heavy on it and fantasize about it? No. But they’ve felt it at one time or another.

I don’t think everyone does, but I think quite a few people do. There are soooo many barriers to sexual experimentation, but I know a lot of women who have gone from -curious to plain ol bi- very quickly once they break past the first internal block (fear, repression, oppression, I don’t know what to do, but I’m a married mother of two, whatever it is for them.)

I heart the curious. A few will break your heart, but mostly it’s a good bet.

I believe ALL women are bi. Whether they choose to accept that fact and/or act on it is a totally different question.

I think there is a huge difference between finding someone of the same gender attractive and being bisexual.

I can think of many women whom I think are incredibly beautiful. But I’ve never fantasized about them or anything else that would make me think it’s anything other than just thinking a woman is beautiful.

So, no, I do not think everyone has bisexual tendencies.

I’m with Jenni. I have no problem in saying some women are beautiful, but have I ever had a fantasy about a member of the same sex? No.

I’ve never felt sexually attracted to a woman. I’m sure that I could feel sexual pleasure with a woman if I chose to (I mean, push the right buttons and I’ll go off no matter who you are), but I don’t have a desire to do so, so no, I don’t believe everyone is bisexual.

I think we all have bi-sexual tendencies… It’s natural in my opinion. Do we all act on them? No. Do we all admit it? No. Do we even know what we are feeling or reacting to at the time? Absolutely not. But I believe it’s there.

I think everyone has had ‘em at some point, but people’s awareness of their own bisexual tendencies depends on their openness to considering them. I also firmly believe that some people (like myself) make a commitment to a single person for life, and cease all desire for others – gender-irrespective.

Are you still not blogging due to computer malfeasance? E-mail me…you know how to reach me.

I miss you and your pithy comments,

As to your question, I think we all could lean bisually. I mean sex is sex. You take a guy..tie him naked and spread eagle, completely immobilized and blindfolded. Have another walk up and start fellating him and the subject will still get aroused. It’s it’s all about finding the other person alluring or attractive and that (I think) is where it all stops and starts. I mean most of us embarked on the good ship, “Curiousity” when we were kids and of course, all fetuses are anatomically female before a hormone triggers the descent of testicles.

That actually had nothing to do with any of this, I just wanted to appear pretentious.

I could totally do a girl. What I couldn’t do is cuddle afterwards. So I understand the sexual side of the curiosity, it’s the relationship part that turns me off. Maybe I’m just a repressed lesbian who happens to be an asshole though.

Honestly, I’ve pondered that question at length in my own head on a few separate occasions, and all I can really come up with is maybe.

We already had this discussion. But I’m with a few others. No, I don’t think we all do but I can still find a woman beautiful but not want to start licking on her!

Thanks to those who have donated to Maria! To those who haven’t, fork it over. $5..$10..whatever!

I think we all have that tendency, but I think it may be stronger for some. Not everyone will admit or even act on it.

Great topic, btw! I would totally donate but I’m broke :(

I would say everyone has seen someone of the same sex that they find attractive. And by attractive I mean someone they so wanna get it on with.

I think women=yes; not necessarily because of the sex itself, but because women tend to feel so much more openly and lovingly, and how is it that we are taught to express that? Sexually. So for women, the leap to a sexual realtionship or experiment with another woman is natural. For men? no clue. And I don’t CARE to know, because frankly, while I don’t care in a general sense and think hey, to each his own, I would never be with a guy who has fucked another guy. Period.

I think everyone has had AT LEAST a thought at one time. Your buddy is deluding herself. She probably just doesn’t want to admit she’s fantasized about you. I mean, who hasn’t, right?

I agree with AFF and Jenni. I often point out beautiful women to my hubby. I have no problem talking about another woman’s beauty. But I have never had a fantasy about another woman. It does not interest me in the least. Thinking about making out or having sex with a woman is actually not appealing to me at all. So no, I don’t think everyone is bisexual.

I think the answer is impossible to knoiw for sure because we live in a society where so many of our basic biological urges are repressesd by the social norms or environment we are raised in.

Tendencies? Absolutely. Flat out desires? No. But I think that is culturally programmed into us. I think if we all grew up with out tv and religion, we’d all make out a lot more.

Nope, I don’t buy it.

The thought of another man’s spotty arse is just a big no no.

It would make life a lot bloody easier, but nope.

I think everyone has the thoughts, not the tendencies.

I’ve been attracted to women. The thought of actually having sex with one of them turns me OFF, though.

Yeah, I can think a chick is hot or whatever but I don’t want to dine at the Y, you know?! In fact, that really kinda grosses me out. But I’ve made out with a girl before, so who knows.
I’ve been gone for a while – sorry to hear about yer computer issues!!!
I’d donate but we’re going through our own hell here now.

Anyone who claims they’ve never had bisexual thoughts at some point simply hasn’t seen me naked. I can turn straight men gay and women off men for life! It’s a gift.

Nah. I mean, most of us have eyes (and emotions) so I think we’re capable of feeling things toward people of the sam sex (whether it be physical or more)… but I don’t think that makes us bisexual.

I’d let anyone go down on me. Woman, man, goat. Whatever.
