Ladies, would you date a man who was bisexual?

I think that men would be more likely to date a woman who identified as bisexual than for a woman to date a man who identified as bisexual. Am I wrong? Ladies, would you give a man a chance who was bisexual?
#2
hey, I'm not a woman.

but you can just don't tell them. they will never know.
#3
I wouldn't mind if a guy was bisexual.
Why worry about it?
It's no problem if he doesn't cheat. And a cheats a cheat, whether they're straight, bi or gay.

It's not really something that needs to be kept secret. I think the secret itself would cause more problems in the relationship then the being bisexual would.

And imagine, let's just say there's a girl that is homophobic, and the secret comes out after a few years, that's not going to be a pretty. It's better to be upfront about things like that to people whom it concerns.

I agree Black Puma. Find someone who accepts you for who you are. I really don't care. Just from my personal views there are more things important than someones sexuality.

hello black puma,

i meant at the start of a relationship, when the 2 people are starting to know each other. like in the 2nd date already telling her that he is bi.
but ofcourse like you said, its better to be open.

Sure. Like twiggle said, a cheat is a cheat and I don't think it has anything to with sexual orientation. My last bf was bisexual and it didn't bother me at all.

Absolutely.

^ Exactly this.

Well, it is encouraging to see all the positive replies.

I have been kind of led to believe otherwise though because I have created profiles on some dating sites and I am always sure to disclose important information about myself and I am afraid this scares women off. I also mention that I have social anxiety. I feel it is best to let people know how I am upfront, no secrets.

Perhaps - some women dont like bisexuality or any kind of homosexuality - just as equally (no doubt) as those who would accept it.
I dont think there are any rules or generalizations - it just comes down to the individual.

I wouldnt worry about it man.

I admire your courage to disclose such information.
#12
I would like to see a poll on this with a lot of people.

I would have to think that men who put that they're bisexual would have a lot harder luck getting a woman compared with the bisexual woman getting men.

what difference does it make if he has a bicycle, drives a car, or takes the bus?

the important part is that he takes the trouble to get to where you are

You're doing it right 🙂

Actually I think you're right, because don't a lot of guys think it's a "turnon" if a girl makes out with a girl or some thing stupid like that?

Anyways, I would probably date a bisexual guy. I mean it depends on what he's like. But I'm saying that his orientation wouldn't make me not date him.

I have to admit this is something that has always puzzled me.

I have nothing against gays or bisexuals or whatever else you are/want to be. But I admit that I wouldn't be comfortable dating a man who told me he is bisexual. I just wouldn't be comfortable knowing he was with a man at some point and then with me. Am I the only one here who feels this way?

And I don't think it's wrong of me to feel that way, it's not like I have anything against bisexual men or women, I just wouldn't want to date someone who could be with either sex. I don't know how to explain it. I could pretend I'm okay with it but then I'd be lying and it wouldn't work out.

Maybe I just find it difficult to grasp the fact that someone can in fact be attracted to both sexes. I acknowledge it and am fine with it, but I don't quite understand it.

I hope no one jumps all over me for saying this, I'm not hating on bisexuals in any way, it is just a preference.

Well I will say that some of the people who I have known who have said they are bisexual are really promiscuous, which I know is a stereotype but it's my experience. Like I knew this girl who said she was bisexual but she didn't even really go out with any girls. She just said that I think because she was ...well I don't want to say it.

I'll admit it, I've passed by every dating profile I've ever seen of a bisexual man. This has more to do with me being insecure, thinking that their playing field is so much bigger than mine that I don't have a chance. And if I did have a chance that they'd leave me for a hot dude. I don't have a problem thinking that they'd been with another guy. Actually, I find that pretty hot.

I find the honesty here refreshing.

Me too, actually.

Though when it comes to dating sites it might make me pause, simply because I wouldn't be sure whether or not they are looking for an exclusive relationship. Then again, plenty of the straight guys I met from dating sites weren't looking for anything exclusive, so there's really no way of telling for sure. 🙄
