    When I was still firmly in the closet I would scower the forums looking to see peoples opinions on Bisexual men from the perspective of gay guys and straight women. I must say most of the responses didnt exactly boost my confidence. There was alot of "Ewww gross" and "Bisexuality doesnt exist!".

    I was just wondering what you guys thought on the subject and also what you would think on dating someone who is trans. For instance would a Lesbian feel comfortable dating a Transwoman.

    My opinion is that it would be hard for me to give a single fuck about the gender identity or sexuality of the person I am with based on the fact that I swing both ways anyway. If you are nice you will suffice!

    I think it would be quite hypocritical of me to refuse to date a bi person purely because of them being bi :grin:
    Trans* people are just as human as anyone else, no matter what some people would like to say. Again, why refuse to date someone simply because they're trans*?

    I wouldn't date someone because they had a personality trait I didn't like, or I didn't click with them, not because they're bi or trans* or any other orientation or gender.

    Yes.

    And that is more or less the only answer I would hope to see here.

    I personally find nothing at all wrong with dating bi or trans*people. In the end they're just people and if I'm attracted to them, who cares about the technicalities?

    My sexual attraction has been largely geared toward women but, in the end, I feel like attraction should be decided based on the individual, not their genitalia.

    No -- just to spite Aussie792.



















    LOL!

    But seriously, this isn't that big of a deal. If I click with you, and you click with me too, that's all we need. So, yes, I would date them.

    LOL if I turn someone down because they're bisexual then I would be the biggest hypocrit alive.

    It'd be awful hypocritical of me not to date someone who is bi. I've heard a lot of that myself, though not personally because I'm not out. As for someone who is trans*, if I'm attracted to them then yes I would.

    Bisexual? That's a definite yes. I just don't get the confusion over it.

    Trans? I'd like to say yes there, but I'm a bit apprehensive if I'm honest. It'd take some effort not to give in to internalized biases, but I'd do my best to give it a fair shake. It is possible I'm just overthinking it, but it feels like I'm in that area where I know that feeling isn't rational, but I'm not confident I could overcome immediately when faced with it.

    I'm trans myself, so it's weird and horribly hypocritical to say this, but oh well.


    So, I'm a very sexual person... I would like to be sexually active with my partner.
    And I'm admittedly like one of those gay guys who go "ewwww vagina, gross~"

    So anyone with a vagina is out of the question. Sorry.
    If he had a phalloplasty, I'd probably date a fellow trans if he was my type


    As for bi, hell yes
    I would date a guy who's bisexual in a heartbeat. To be honest, I don't care what sexuality you label yourself with, as long as you are attracted to me, being that I am what I am.

    I was in a long distance relationship with a trans woman,plus I had long distance relationships with a few bisexual women. So yes I would date a bisexual and trans person.
    Funny thing was my trans girlfriend was bisexual and trans.:grin:

    I think I would but it's in theory because the case never presented itself in the past.

    While the starters of these threads are (usually) well-meaning (as is certainly the case here), I always hate how this even needs to be asked.


    Absolutely, and of course, to both.

    I agree with the whole "if you are nice, you will suffice" thing.

    I am bisexual, and yes, I would date a bi girl/boy, I would probably be a bit more comfortable dating a bi guy rather than a straight one as he would understand the whole "bisexual" thing that so few people understand if they aren't bi themselves. I would also date a transwoman or transguy. :slight_smile:
