Being completely honest, as a bisexual man I have done acts that are unfaithful and promiscuous just for spitefulness, so I do get the stereotype evem though it is ironic homosexuals are resorting to steretypical views but whatever. Obviously being bisexual means that there is a wider range of people who you could possibly date and therefore more people attractive in your eyes.
However, I have found most of the discrimination for being bisexual has came from homosexuals. "when are you going to come out", "basically your too scared to be fully gay", "if your bi, why do you date more of X gender", "your bi, you don't have the same prejudice real homosexuals have". Bisexual people have it worst as they don't fit in either social construct.
I think some of it is just an age thing though, as you are younger your sex drive is going to be higher[ and with more people to potentially have sex with your a more likely to be unfaithful. I mean, at my current age of 20 I would find it hard to commit to a relationship than an average straight or gay person due to my bisexuality, but that will become easier as I mature.

I've been dating a bi guy for over a year now, it worried me at the start but honestly it's not been an issue. Yeah he likes and is attracted to women as well as men, but while he's with me it's all about me, my anatomy, etc. Like, yes we've talked about girls/watched some **** with girls involved but it's become increasingly apparent to me that his preferences tend to fall in line with who he's dating, so for the past year he's basically been all about that dick.

Yeah ofcourse.
if a person is a cheater, they're going to do so whether they're straight, gay or bi. I don't know why people make such a big deal out that topic.

I wouldn't mind at all, it'd be quite interesting actually. I feel for bisexuals, they are discriminated by both gays and straights. However I feel like with men there is such a stigma about same sex attraction, I see why some people are wary of being taken advantage of.

I made out with a bisexual guy in my driveway. Well sorta. He wanted to really like make out and I wasn't going to do it in my driveway and he didn't want to go anywhere else so we kinda kissed for a few seconds.
Oh and this other bi guy I had over in my room stopped talking to me after he came over. Then he messaged me out of the blue asking me to come cuddle. I was out of town at the time and he was like "Goodbye (real name)" and I was like "Forever or for tonight?" and I never heard back from him. Hopefully something bad happens to him, I hate people like that.
Oh, my most recent boyfriend considered himself bisexual. He only had one guy relationship before me and only a few men after his previous boyfriend and him broke up. No clue who he's with now though, if anybody.
But yeah, I would date one. Like, people are people. And if somebody actually wants to be with your bitch ass you don't throw them away. You hold on. You hold on tight

My boyfriend is bisexual and he's a bit older than me, but he says he wants to settle with me. And he's truly a bisexual, he had a relationship with a woman for 5 years and he's attracted to women too. It doesnt really make a difference for me, a bisexual is not someone who's "greedy" they are just like anybody else, but they are just attracted to both genders, they not going to have a relationship with both at the same time. I dont know why some people think bisexual people are confusing.

I had a bisexual boyfriend. It was fine. We were friends before we became a thing. He dated my friend (a girl) before me. We were all fine with it. When he had a new girlfriend, we (me and my friend) stayed friends with him because we're in one circle of friends. He even introduced as both as his exes (which was awkward and the girl was trying too hard to be friends with us).

The generalization of bisexuals in here is really offensive and insulting. Bi-erasure and biphobia are so real and it's sad that gays - who know the pain of oppression - still push oppression on other minorities.
I'm bisexual and the only thing it means for me is that the right person for me could be a guy or a girl. I'm attracted to both (I'm a little more comfortable with same-sex attraction, since that's what I was more comfortable dealing with at first) and just because I think a girl is hot while I'm with a guy doesn't mean I'm going to cheat. I'm bisexual, I'm not a sex addict, I'm not a cheater, and if I love someone, my first instinct is not to go out and find someone to cheat on them with.

Whenever the topic came up among my group of friends in uni, the straights were adamant that they would never date or have sex with a bisexual because they thought they slept around a lot or that they were just 'confused'. I was quite offended and had to gather them.

Not sure if I should read this thread and tackle the ignorance or just ignore it. Hmm.
OT: Yes I would date a bisexual.

I'm bisexual and there are soo many delusional homosexuals that think that the chance of a bisexual to cheat is 2x more likely.
Grow the **** up, I hate it.

I don't have trust issues because I'm not insecure so I wouldn't care if he was bi.

1: Bisexual men is a myth.
2: Even if they did exist, I would never, if a gay is a pig imagine a gay that is also straight.

Yes of course I'd date one.
Having said that, I've never actually met an openly bisexual man, only seen them on the internet.
