Fantastic blog you have here - it’s reassuring to read so much on your blog that sounds so familiar: Fluctuating preferences, a desire for monogamy, etc. I’ve always known I’m not the only one, but it still feels good to confirm my bi feelings by reading from others.

I’m going through a gay period at the moment, but I can relate you your straight streak. Fluctuations like these have made it difficult to even understand my sexuality, let alone come out to other people about it. Nevertheless, I’m clearly bisexual. Despite my occasional straight/gay streaks, I usually feel attracted to both.

I don’t know why so many of us bi’s focus on the question of which gender we really prefer, except that others often want bisexuals to make a choice. For me, it seems I enjoy the tension between homo/heterosexuality, and so I never give rest to the question of which gender I prefer.

I know exactly what you mean! There are times when I think, “wow, why did I come out at all?” and others when I think “while I was at it, I should have just come out as gay!”

One of those things I guess.
