    I don't like telling people I'm bisexual because often, people will assume I must fancy them!

    I don't just mean women, but men too - as soon as they know you fancy one guy, or one girl, they act as if maybe I will fancy them too...? It gets really embarrassing because I only fancy a few people, not many. I feel like saying "No, I don't fancy him because he's a man, I fancy him because he's my type.." But they may not understand that. I don't feel as if my mind divides people into male or female, but into androgynous (in looks OR personality) or non androgynous... Does anyone else feel like this too? :icon_redf

    When I come out as gay to close male friends, "Oh, so do you fancy me?" is almost always the response. They're half joking and half serious - I'm never sure what to say! Do they want to know if I fancy them (I've certainly fancied a few).

    On a more related note, my bi friend says everyone seems to think she wants to have sex with anything that moves. She's lost a friend or two by coming out sadly.
