Your reading it right, and 'im not playing around. I don't get why it's shocking since, I'm not as Anti-gay as most Conservatives are. I support gay adoption and Gays in the military.

Well, considering your track record of statements you've made here in the past, that's hardly the impression most of us have been getting, hence my surprise at the very least.

[DownWithTheLeft]

I'm sorry but I don't buy for even one minute that someone knows they are bi-sexual at 14

[Sensei]

I'm sorry but I don't buy for even one minute that someone knows they are bi-sexual at 14

Did you know you were straight at 14?

[War on Want]

I'm sorry but I don't buy for even one minute that someone knows they are bi-sexual at 14

You are such of dickhead. If you have gone through puberty by 14 you should know your sexual preference...

[DownWithTheLeft]

I'm sorry but I don't buy for even one minute that someone knows they are bi-sexual at 14

Did you know you were straight at 14?

Yeah, but I fail to see the point.  Being bi-sexual shouldn't cross the mind of a 14-yr-old

*facepalm*

You discover than you are bisexual because you are attracted by both guys and girls. At 14, you are able to know who attracts you!

Well it obviously did for you - in the manner that you realised 'I'm striaght, not gay or bi-sexual'

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

I'm sorry but I don't buy for even one minute that someone knows they are bi-sexual at 14

14 is a age when most men think very much about sex

I was 13 when I started to be attracted to guys, so I was thinking about bisexuality then.
