I've been reading a variety of threads on the notice board and it seems to me that Bi.s' are the escape goat of the sexual world, hell people in the 'scene' are more often likely to accept a Transexual than a Bi. I work in an organisation where I get hit on by both sides and your often left feeling vunerable and exposed. So just for the record lets set something straight, if you'll forgive the pun. Bi's don't just jump anyones bones, if anything we are the purest form of new age thinking because we don't descern between the physical state to dictate our loves and needs. We challenge on a daily basis the prejedice of gays and straights and unlike either we are not political. Next time you want to deride someone elses sexuality please remember it wasn't that long ago that you would have been subject to the same level of ignorance and exclusion and I hope you that which need not be said unsaid.
I will be most interested to hear all colors of opinion and actively encourage those who disagree to add their opinions, because everyones opinon counts, having said that be prepared to defend it!
Regards to you all.

hi hun no one's attacked on this site all women, no matter the sexuality,. have an equal voice here
for some people, being bi, is about just sex, they want a conventional relationship, but same sex experience. while for others, it's about being with the person they love, if they are same sex. or different sex, doesn't matter to them |

Hi Chimera Hmm.... is there something wrong with being transsexual then? Are we lesser beings? I don't think there is any problem with someone being bisexual but obviously individuals make choices about who they might wish to have a relationship with. My ex used to be bi and is a single parent but she's been strictly lesbian since before I met her. Freud felt that being bi was a natural state but that what he called the 'sexual object' could vary during a person's life. For myself, I've only ever been attracted to women but that obviously isn't the case for all. I believe we have quite a few bi members but so far as I'm aware nobody here discriminates against them. Take care Louise |

No one is a lesser being than anyone else. As for the "scene" maybe its the scene your in ... as you have posted you work for an organisation where I get hit on by both sides ... well thats nothing to do with this site is it ? As for political ??? im not political neither are a lot of straight people ... you are entitled to vote and free think what you want to along with everyone else in the free world. I`d like to know what posts you reguard as attacking Bi`s ?? It`s all about what you want out of life ... if you want to have relationships with men and women then good for you. Just dont lump everyone into the same boat, you have obviously experienced some form of preduice.... thing is you are posting as attacking all lesbians and transexual people ,,,, so the question here is who is attacking who now ? |

I'm so sorry if the readers' assume I'm attacking anyone that is just not the case. My whole point was to 1) Stimulate a debate; 2) Encourage others' to join in with their opinions and 3) Test a theory, that being that everyone who ever they are will seek to find their own kind. Ultimately I was saying "Hey get over it,live and let live and be done with it"! Ultimately we should all be valued for something greater than our sexual drives and feelings and that means everyone. No one can deny surely that for the longest time Bi's were not invited in to the fold of gay world but sidelined. The message here is all that aside we should all shades of sexuality seek to strive together for some greater good, 'United we stand, divided we fall'. To those who have offered their opinions I would like to thank you. |

To Louise, I would simply say this, far from deriding ir degrading transgender people I actually hold them in very high esteem. How difficult and brave, yes BRAVE they must be to fly in the face of almost overwhelming opinon to just be themselves and dress and act as they wish and not as some socitey dictates. I think their inspirational because when I see someone defying the rules I think if that was me could I do? I openly praise and respect those individuals who's daily struggles make my own pale in comparision. I hope this clarified my position. I would like to thank you for your efforts in adding to the debate Louis and have taken on board your opinon. Chimera |

1. Debate is good and healthy ... just remember that in such a diverse world as ours that many people reguardless of what sex or who they sleep with have many many different points of views. Just because we either like / love men or women it does NOT mean we share the same point of view. 2. I have lots of opinions ... ... whats the next topic ? 3. I agree with your number 3 ... people will find who they are comftable with ... i was married for 9 years , 3 children before i finally decided that men was not my way to go in life , I fell in love with a woman not because she was a woman but because of who she was inside... i fell in love with the person not the gender of them. |

Thanks for the positive feed back.
There's a humorous look at being bi on the same board, hope it gives you a smile.
If you want a more serious debate then here's one for you: Q. Can war ever be justified?
Too compicated for a yes no answer I think you will agree. Good luck with your new life. I wish you long life good health and happiness always. Regards Chimera |
