Anonymous asked: Part 1 labels: I ask you this because I have known gay people who found that one person who is opposite gender who they wanted to marry and be with but still see themselves as gay because all others of the opposite gender still are not even remotely attractive to them. They don't feel like their really bi they still feel pretty gay.
Anonymous asked: Part 1 Labels: How do you feel about people who want to label themselves how they feel they are? I think it's great and totally support it. I have gay friends who see the opposite gender as attractive but they just don't want to date them (they may even have a few celeb crushes that they would go for but nothing more than that). Same with straight and bi friends. I just wanted to know...
Anonymous asked: What does bisexual mean for you? I know many girls who say they are only gay until sober then laugh about it. They like to get drunk and make out with girls but if they were sober they wouldn't do ANYTHING. I find it pretty offensive to all queer ID women, no matter where we are on that spectrum. Now if a woman can have real sexual attraction to women sober and drunk, I believe it &...

Anonymous asked: Where can I get support? Where can I find people? I really wish to talk
Anonymous asked: Adrienne, I love this website, It looks like a framework for women and men to express sexual preferance nomenclature non-discrimnantly -- promoting the seemingly unnormative bisexual label. Perhaps, I'm wrong in my assessment and I apologize if I self-attributed too much on what this Tumblr looks to mean. But, regardless, it makes me happy to know that a person like you, and perhaps several...
Anonymous asked: I have been told that bisexual is a sin but I have been thinking about weman for as long as 40 years, I have been bi all my life but I have never been able to find a bi woman to talk to about this. So can any one help me out.
Anonymous asked: Dear Adrienne This is just an idea that I've had. There are flowers which are called bisexual flowers which contain both male and female components and fertilize themselves. Examples include lilies, roses and most plants with large showy flowers. Another way for bisexuals to become visible would be for all bi's wear a rose in their lapel, or pinned on their clothing. Whether real or...

As excitment goes and folks have Googled you anyway. They wanted to see all my sites, have all my emails, pictures etc. So I...

Anonymous asked: I think I'm bisexual. I'm in love with my boyfriend, but I've always had crushes on women. Now, all of a sudden, I have fallen for this woman whom I was sure was gay (and my boyfriend gave me the green light to experiment), only to learn that she's straight...or at least, closeted. I can't stop thinking about her, and I'm pissed at her for leading me on. But I'm...

Bisexualist Rant: Study Trying to Erasure the Bi...
Where do I begin, Should I be outraged that a bi study yet again, has not talked about bisexual men and women together? Should I be enraged that media like Your Tango is reporting that bisexuals would be better off not identifying themselves at all; because of mental health stresses, or just the overall sadness of bi people wanting to hide in the shadows?
From what I can tell, using terms like...

Anonymous asked: It took me a long time to realize and accept that I am not straight, or gay but pan/bi. I'm truly in love with a man now but am having a hard time feeling comfortable with my identity. I am just confessing my inner turmoil. I love my boyfriend and don't want to leave him, but I feel like I live in a very straight world. Like I am no longer a part of the LGBT community. A community I feel...
