    Umm...I have never really had one of these before.
    But I did today, and I have no idea why today.
    I am bisexual.
    There I said it!

    Oh, but you get *so* much more than mere knowledge that you're bisexual! Yes! You get to enter into the queer community, which is about the most awesome friggin' place, among the best and coolest people in the whole world!

    I'm being rather serious there...but even more seriously, congratulations! Have any questions or need support or help thinking through issues, you know we're here for you. *warm hug*

    It's really odd actually...I know labels are unhelpful to many, it has helped me no end.
    Just for myself really, I feel I have something I can identify with and strangely I have been looking back over much of my life and lots of things now make sense and lots of experiences I had blocked out came back to me regarding my sexuality. I can't believe I have just seen the light here, I think I had actually convinced myself I was straight and the most frustrating part of all is that I think I have led a straight life because it was expected...and also because I was never super feminine so I think I felt I was proving people wrong by being straight...
    I hope any of this makes sense?!

    Congratulations for being honest with yourself. The toughest one to be honest with.
