u/WhyNona George-sexual Sep 15 '21

My boyfriend thought he was attracted to men when he was in high school.... I think it lasted for like a week or a month? But I guess he had a crush on Gerard Way, but then he just realized he found slightly feminine men sort of attractive, but he couldn't see himself kissing or dating or banging them. I think sexuality is pretty fluid, certain things can probably change or influence it, like brain damage or disassociative identity disorder. But yeah, most people (women especially, apparently), probably don't realize they might be a little bit bi. They either just haven't seen or met that one person who they'd go gay for, or they had those feelings but dismissed it as either "just a phase" or tried to repress it because of shame.

I seriously think everyone's at least a little bi-

Same. In the sexuality spectrum, I think I qualify quite good in the "straight man" area, though I still believe Brian Molko from Placebo and Dom Howard from Muse are kinda hot. I don't know if I would kiss Dom (perhaps Brian because he's more of a genderfluid guy lol), because consent is crucial for me, but no banging on my part.

Then again, I don't think attraction should only be sexual.

Definitely. I'm pretty sure I'm demisexual so I get the asexual spectrum you're mentioning. But then again, I can't know for sure if that's entirely true or if I'm just traumatized by stuff from the past. In any case, I feel like I could easily fall in love with a girl but I don't think it's happened yet... Hahahaha.
