I agree with the people who said that sexuality is a continuum - there's the Kinsey Scale, obviously, and in college we used to discuss our "percentage" of gayness. Most of my friends who were "straight" admitted that they were not a zero (absolutely not ever attracted to someone of the same sex) and vice versa, although women were much more likely to put themselves towards the middle than men, whether because of a biological difference or because of societal pressure, I'm not sure.
I'm in kind of a weird situation because I'm bi, but for the last 10 years have only had
relationships with women. I'm totally sexually attracted to both men and women, but seem to only form the kind of bond I need for a relationship with women (I'm not saying I couldn't have a relationship with a man, but it hasn't happened recently). You can imagine how difficult this is to explain to people, especially without getting vulgar, so I've
always been accused of not really being bi. It never really bothered me, though, because I've never put much stock in labels. If I had to pick... a couple of years ago I heard the term "bisexual lesbian" and I think that's probably what best describes me. Or the other day my girlfried referred to me as an "opportunist" and that's pretty accurate, too.
