Yeah sure, why not. I can't really see any reason why I wouldn't

Most women below a certain age like to think they are bisexual, so yeah, of course, unless I want to limit myself to (mostly) uncool prudes.




<of course I'm married, so this is all moot for me....my wife (actually both my wives) claim to be bisexuals>

No, at least not someone who had had homosexual sex and hadn't repented of it to follow Jesus.  I think as a personal preference, I wouldn't really want to date an ex-lesbian, though.  I've done a couple Instagram story polls on this (I've probably asked close to 100 polls on dating over the past several months):

31% would date someone who was bisexual (almost exclusively non-evangelicals who I know from college)

29% would date someone who identified as a "former homosexual" (this one was actually a mix of evangelicals and non-evangelicals, as some evangelicals said they would be willing if the other person completely repented of it and followed Jesus)

I don't actually know a single non-heterosexual person in real life, though (apart from maybe people I went to college with but haven't talked to in many years).

I'm actively unsettled when straight people are attracted to me, so yes, I would.

Do you hold the same standard to people who’ve had premarital sex? What about your evangelical friends?

Yes. In fact, considering I'm trans, I don't know if I'm allowed to date people who aren't bisexual (at least, cisgender people who aren't bisexual). Between the fact that nobody will ever see me as a woman and my own gripe about wanting my partner to at least pretend to see me as a woman, dating a bi woman seems to be the easiest pathway, and even then I'd still be cartoonishly paranoid that she sees me as a man because I mean, come on, who wouldn't see me as a man?

No, I base it on reality. I look in the mirror and I don't see a woman, and if I can't see myself as a woman, then nobody can. It doesn't help that people have called me "sir" many times, despite having (visible) breasts.

I would personally prefer to ideally date a virgin, but I'd be more likely to date someone who had premarital heterosexual sex, repented of that, and WANTED to wait until marriage with me (not just accepted it because I insisted).  As for why my answers are different, that's just a personal preference.  Still, my ideal woman would be a virgin on our Wedding Day.

Of course. What would a relationship be without shipping all of our favorite characters every which way?

I suspect many of those (usually straight cisgender men) voting 'yes' to dating bisexual women have hopes and visions of ménage à trois on their minds.

Lol ExtremeRepublican thinks he doesn't know any gay/bi people. That's literally like 5-10% of the population

My husband had a girlfriend for five years. He wouldn't consider himself bisexual, but he has had much more varied experiences than I have. I don't see why that should be a problem for anyone.

I actually didn’t know any non-heterosexual people until I went to university. And I’m pretty similar to ER in terms of beliefs and somewhat in terms of upbringing.

However, I’m almost certain that at-least a few people in my high school were non-heterosexuals and that I never found out.

Seeing as most of the people to express any sort of interest in me have been bisexual, the most recent person I kissed is bisexual, and the person I'd put at the top of my "people I'm most likely to date who I already know" list is bisexual, yes. I imagine there's a higher chance I'd end up marrying someone who's bisexual than not.

Sure, heck, as long as she's not jealous and we're committed, it'd make for good movie nights. We can laugh at each other's bad attempts to check out others too.
