    Hey there, welcome to EC.

    And it would be called bi :lol: Being bi doesn't necessarily mean your attraction to both genders is equal :slight_smile:

    There are two types of pictures, avatar and profile. Your profile picture is showing up, but you probably want the avatar picture.

    Your profile picture is the bigger picture that shows up on your wall where people can message you, and the avatar picture shows up by your name when you post on threads :slight_smile:

    Hey,

    Welcome to EC!

    Don't worry too much about labels. But, if you want to use one, you could simply say that you are Bi, or that you are "Bi leaning gay", as you said. Or you could use the Kinsey scale.

    Just remember that words are made to serve us, not the contrary, so remember there is no need to complicate things too much. Just pick the label you feel more confortable with :slight_smile:

    Myself, i'm bi with a preference (70%?) for men, but i still call myself just "bisexual". You don't need to be 50/50 to be considered bisexual.

    Hugs (*hug*)
