Asexual means you do not need a mate to reproduce. You have therefore disqualified yourdelf from our phylum and have been tossed into phylum ciliterata (spelling?) or annelida (once again, spelling?). Your choice. One is segmented worms, the other has hollow body cavities like the hydra organism.

Yes I know.

I work like a sponge

I am surprised I never saw this thread before... Oh well.

Anyway, I'm a straight girl, albeit an unsuccessful straight girl. And no, I'm not referring to "unsuccessful" as still being a virgin, just that all the boys I know would rather be my friend than my partner. I guess that's not such a bad thing, actually, but eh. Kinda' nulls the "sexual" factor, all of them being platonic and such. *shrugs*

I've thought that girls I have seen before were beautiful, and I have probably flirted with a girl or two, but I see those more as open friendships than romantic pursuits, because I personally can't imagine being with a female myself. Not out of fear or taboo, just doesn't float my boat.

Not that we aren't very nice, and soft, and smell good, and adorable and all.

That wasn't one of the choices Spoony.

Aww, gives spidey some ice cream to make her feel better. Wait, who am I kidding? I'm just as unsuccessful myself!

I'll just stick with my vote of straight, really

I thought this was interesting

An article about bi-chic girls

Very interesting. I heard something much like that too, where girls fake bisexuality for attention since it seems to be some sort of "turn-on" for guys. I don't see it as a bad thing to experiment, I mean people are welcome to do what they want, but to fake your orientation to attract a guy or something.... That's not right, IMHO. Another aspect the article brought up was the difference between woman's being either bisexual or homosexual and a man's being homosexual / bisexual etc. -- it's much more accepted for *women* rather then men, in my opinion, because of the gender role the media has portrayed as being "right". Men are supposed to be all manly and take care of the women and kids, have a good job etc. etc. etc. Women, not so much so. Sure, they're supposed to take care of the children and do housework, and yes, they could have a job, but the "being womanly" part is less pressured than the man's being "manly". Another thing I was thinking of bringing up was the topic of metrosexuality.... Anyone want to take a stab at it before I do?

For those that may not know, a definition: http://www.wordspy.com/words/metrosexual.asp

One theory comes from bisexuals being more craving of sev, and by going both ways they double the odds. Personally, I do not see this to be the case in the majority and do not support it, but something to think about.

Metrosexual.

I consider myself one.

But, my definition is; A guy that can embrace the feminine side and not care what those around him say.

I don't go painting my nails, or wear sarongs and drink umbrella cocktails.

But, I do agree on the urban part. I am so urban if i ever had to live anywear near fresh air and noisefree, I had to stand behind a tractor and suck exhaust fumes to avoid passing out.

Seriously. It's a guy that has the traits usually associated only with gay guys. But, is straight. Of course, the sexuality is irrelevent.

It can be a straight jock, and dress as a cheerleader.

You get the idea. Of course it can get tricky with straight acting gay guys. <frown>

But, the term is mostly asssociated with urban heterosexuals.

For me, being bi is about not being able to score with just one sex so tries with both. Doubles my chances but 2 times 0 is still 0...

Nah, I voted Bi. I didn't know you could be attracted to both sexs for many years, no one told me. No people coming into schools saying its okay. That was a very confusing set of school years, but I am now comfortable with my sexuality...huzzah!

They should give out Bi Pride badges in schools at early ages and encourage people to take the day off for the Bi Parades.

...

It's already becoming "trendy" enough as it is...much to my annoyance (since some people think because a lot of girls do it to be trendy, we all must be being trendy and it isn't real. Morons). Schools shouldn't support any one sexuality above the others. Allowing people to take the day off for pride parades is one thing...but encouraging them to take the day off and handing out badges? No.

Its not trendy in my area, and especially not trendy to be a bisexual guy.

That doesn't mean it's okay for schools to promote bisexuality. They should remain neutral, as candice said.

I don't think it's really all that trendy anywhere to be a bisexual guy. I didn't mention guys in my post. I specifically said girls. And girls being bisexual is sadly becoming rather trendy in a lot of places...as is shown in that link that Sammi put up. Even where I live, which is not tolerant at all, it's somewhat trendy.

Nevertheless, I still stick by my opinion that a school should not promote any one sexual preference...any more than they should promote religious preferences. To hand out Bi Pride badges at early ages would just be ridiculous. To me, that'd be the equivalent of them trying to hand out crosses.

Maybe badges were an extreme idea, but it really would have helped me and a few others I know to have infomation at a younger age. They do it now, drugs and safe sex are top of the priority list for many schools but when I was 12-13 I was really clueless to the world.

I can't say I know any girls that are definatly bi, appart from my girlfriend, but I can definatly see how it can be seen as trendy. But I do know of some very straight girls who pull eachother to get guys, sad but true.

I just got a little excited, having little contact to the 'two wayers' and then suddenly finding a forum where 30% of the voters consider their sexuality to match my own is a new experience.

I find it interesting how there are more bisexuals than gays people here.

That's what I meant by trendy.

Not genuinely bisexual girls...but girls who do it just for the attention. That's what is becoming a trend.

Yeah, and I bet most of them would run away screaming if they were actually propositioned by a woman who wanted to sleep with them!!!!! This current trend really annoys me, as I freely admit that I sleep with girls as well as men, yet most of the "bi" people I know will only kiss and cuddle. That to me isn't true bisexuality, just experimentation...

Yup! I don't think one has to sleep with members of the same sex to know they are bi...but if you'd run at the opportunity, then you're probably just being trendy, I'd think. It's one thing if you're involved with someone and being faithful to them...but if you're single...one has to wonder...
