2/2/08 On being bisexual.

Lately I’ve been asked about being bisexual a lot and I usually ignore that since it’s usually brought up to me in the form of “why did you choose to be bisexual?” and it wasn’t a choice I just am. Today though someone seriously asked me about my sexuality and how I feel about it and how I can be so open about it. So here is my answer.

I think I've always been bisexual, I mean, it's something that I've always been interested in. I think everybody kind of fantasizes about the same sex. I think people are born bisexual, and it's just that our parents and society kind of veer us off into this feeling of; Oh, I can't. They say it's taboo. It's ingrained in our heads that it's bad, when it's not bad at all. It's a very beautiful thing.

I think mostly it's been kept in my head. I've never had a really serious relationship with another woman. But it is something that comes up as a struggle in me. It especially came up when I was about 15. In high school people think you have to be so feminine and what not. People get attacked just because someone insinuates something about their sexuality. I think that's gruesome.

But remember this; random acts of teenage sex are not always bad.
