If he's truly sexually attracted to women he's not gay.
I'm not sure why the reason can't just be that that a person wants a partner with the same sexuality - hetero or homosexual. Bisexuals can date each other.
I don't appreciate being lied to, and have been by people pretending to be straight. Not boyfriends, but girl friends who weren't kidding with their "lesbian" jokes. More like they were testing the waters. Straight girls can see each other naked or be touchy and affectionate without it being weird. Both these women got married to men, and one has had many male partners and is still looking for Mr. Right, but also likes women so they are bi.
I’ve met several gay male couples in their 60s and 70s. All were married to women and had a bunch of kids before it was accepted to be gay. I’m very sorry for their wives, who probably could have been happier without husbands who were living a lie, and who divorced them after the kids were out of the nest.
I didn’t use the words “bottom” or “top” or “ancient Rome” because I was referring to male bisexuality in general, not the mechanics therein. Women generally don’t like it, and for many of the reasons (along with some of Sonic’s) that I said.
Men, on the other hand, tend to be much less bothered by it. Many even fantasy about it or the possibility of them joining in. That’s why if you ask men about being with bi-women, most won’t say “nope!” “Eww” or “no way”. Men and Women see it differently is all I’m saying.
It's been my experience that men are much more open sexually.

They can only fake it for so long.
That was then, now there's no excuse for lying about sexuality. There's something for everyone and that is celebrated. There are about a hundred different sexualities recognized. There will always be some people who are unaccepting, but it is much easier to make it out in the world being honest than in past generations.

I get that. I still would not touch a man who was bi. I think that women are a different story.
I can't see why not. I'm baffled as to why this is considered an issue. Why would being bi make someone more likely to have an affair? What a bizarre stereotype.

I think we have everything is an excuse people come up with to justify some insecurities. If you're with a man in your own in the rain is also attracted to other men you could see why someone would be insecure about that.
Listen to much bigger deal for men than it is for women. I haven't seen too many complaints from lesbians about getting bisexual women and haven't seen much from men dating bisexual women.
I am watching the Michael Peterson documentary on Netflix and was wondering would you start dating someone you knew was actively bisexual?
Thinking about this answer some more, yes I have dated women in the past who were bisexual (or maybe a lesbian) but they were in the closet to me at the time I was interested in them. But I have never intentionally sought out to date a woman who I knew was bisexual at the time I asked her out either.
I think the big reason I wouldn't intentionally date some woman that I knew was bisexual is that it seems to be adding more drama to my life without any benefit to me for doing so. I am not someone really looking for a threesome. So there is no real benefit to me from dating some woman who is bisexual. I would just take a pass. There are plenty of women who aren't bisexaul to date.
I don't mind dating people who are bisexual. I've actually dated quite a few women who were bisexual, and that can add variety and spice to your private life.
Gay men would probably be the best source here but I suspect that there are probably as many men who are bi or homoflexible as women, but just in the closet about it. But given how frequent women are not fully straight, I suspect there are a lot of women who have boyfriends/husbands who are open to men as well.
Yup. Most bisexual men end up in straight relationships because it's the easy, "default" setting and they don't have to give up their social status in the reproductive pecking order. Coming out as bi still carries a huge social risk and changes the way many people perceive you (just read some of the responses in this thread). Screwing around with other men here and there behind closed doors is okay, but being openly, romantically involved with them changes the whole game and is a huge no-no.
It's a very outdated, homophobic concept of masculinity that some women are just as guilty of perpetuating as the men they like to blame. I hope I live to see the day where men liberate themselves from these ridiculous gender roles and are allowed to be their full, authentic selves, but I'm not holding my breath.
