QUB Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender (LGBT) Society

“A person who is emotionally and/or sexually oriented towards both sexes. Once viewed primarily as a phase of gay or lesbian development, bisexuality is now regarded as a valid, independent sexual identity.”

My boyfriend likes girls, so do I. Bisexuality isn’t about promiscuity, indecisiveness or being gay; it’s about attraction and relationships. Sexuality and attraction are fluid terms and no one is 100% straight or 100% gay. Many people have a preference for one sex or the other and this doesn’t necessarily change if you identify as bisexual. You could identify as a bi man and still prefer women and vice versa. Relationships are on an individual basis and what you’re looking for could come in completely different packages, perhaps even surprising you, but keeping an open mind and concentrating on what makes you happy is the key.

It isn’t easy (but then again what is?) and you could get stick from both straight and gay friends but not everyone understands that the power to choose sexual and emotional partners regardless of gender is an amazing thing.
