I have always been chiefly attracted to girls, and that's pretty much the only sex I cared about throughout most of school.
However, when I was around 18-20 (about 10-12 years ago) I started to feel a certain special attraction for some men as well.
BUT - it has to be one very specific type of men.
The man has to be a great deal taller than I am, preferably somewhere around 8 inches or so (I am 6'0 myself though, so that doesn't happen too often) and he has to be both visibly and technically much stronger than myself, because I love feeling tiny and delicate around a much larger and more powerful man.
And he also has to have a good balance between kindness and strictness - definitely not a pushover, but at the same time a warm and romantic personality.
For some reason I have always felt extremely drawn to men with these qualities - but of course, finding a man with all of these specific traits is really hard, but I know that when I do meet a man like this and actually have a sexual interaction with him for the first time in my life, it will be extremely pleasant.

This is the ONLY type of men that I am actually attracted to, and like I said, I have had these kinds of feelings for men like this for roughly a decade - is this enough to count as typically "bisexual", or is it just some "bicurious" thing?

<strokes chin>hmmm... vary interesing ja, und vat do you sink Mr.Markus? Could ziss haf somethink to do viss your childhood, hmmm? Serously, wth? Why are you asking? Just don't get married or shack up or otherwise set some woman up to think you are going to be there for her forever. Your Adonis may actually lock eyes with you across the free weights section of L.A. Fitness and you clearly have never experienced the wisdom that "hell hath no fury like a woman scorned". Be careful out there...

Sexuality is fluid. You might try an encounter you are sure will be so pleasant, hate it, and decide never to do it again. You may not even have any such desires afterward. Do you really need to label yourself?

I don't feel that I have to label myself, but I feel it's a bit interesting, since it occurred to me quite recently that this might actually count as bisexuality, and I haven't really thought of myself as bisexual before.

I am pretty sure that I would enjoy an experience like this though, because I tend to feel a massive excitement when I stand close to a guy who is a lot taller and more muscular than I am.

IMO, I think this 'counts' in points towards bisexuality as well...who's keeping track of the points though, and what will you do with the results? Is it going to change any of the ways you live your life or present yourself? This meeting you envision is a positive experience and you feel a "massive excitement", I'm assuming you mean in the sexual sense?

I have a couple of very attractive friends. I find myself attracted to attractive women. I don't feel a sexual attraction to them though, I never picture a physical relationship with them, that doesn't appeal to me. I just like being around them, like one would be attracted to pretty things. My experience is different from yours though, I wouldn't even consider myself bisexual, because it isn't sexual.

^This


Call it whatever you like. I've had a few male friends who call themselves bisexual - but they are only attracted to the other gender sexually, not romantically, and only with a narrow set of criteria. They won't do certain sexual things with one but they will with the other gender.


Hook up with a man you attracted to and see how it goes. You are a person, not a sexuality really.

How could anyone else say what you can consider yourself?

Too many labels!

If you are attracted to a guy, go for it, and don't worry about tagging yourself. Have fun and be safe.

I believe that the next generation will be far less stringent about binary sexuality boundaries.
