Does each gender turn you on in various degrees from time to time?

[BiPhone]

I have periods where I find men more exciting because Ive only been doing this for little over a year and sometimes find the sex with my g/f a little regular from time to time. other times i cant get enough of her and dont think of men that much. anybody?

I hear you, sometimes the sex with the wife gets very old. Waiting on her to be in the mood is very frustrating also. It's worth the wait when she does allows time for it though. I just wish she could be a little more creative.

Guys can be turned on a ready at the drop of a hat. I think that makes it more exciting cause you never know were it will happen. :cool:

For much of my sexual life, my pendulum has swung back and forth...not for female companionship...for that has remained fairly steady......but desire for certain males has fluctuated, since the beginning.

I've gone years without a male lover.........then, all of a sudden, there came a time when I didn't think I could go another day without one.

It's normal for bisexual desires to fluctuate. Don't worry about it.

[Miyu Scene]

When I first started gettings sexually active, I was absolutly driven and excited by both.
Then, when I found males to be a "dime a dozen" :( and my prefered females :rolleyes: to be a rare comodity: hippy girls were intoxicating and always ran away with my heart. But, they always came with a following of weird straight men, that creaped me out.
Around my early 20s and late teens, the girls, I was soo* attracted to, started settling down with the random guys that were following them around because they got knocked up or it got conveniently comfortable. I didn't want that. My family wouldn't approve. And, in general, it scared me shitless, that I felt confined/limited in choice.
I picked a guy outside of the hippy community because I thought every girl was inherently bi and choose a guy, for the sake of babies or from pressure from religion or socielty. He treated me well enough and I tried. But I was forcing love. I hit depressed during the last few years and wouldn't even look at him when we were making love. I never intended to play with anyones feelings, but I broke up with him 3 times. The more I tried to be nice to him, the more I hurt myself.

After the worst 5 years of my life (at the time), I decided I didn't deserve love, and that I'd just slut with girls in the clubbing scene. :tong: It was awsome and I have to say I was a natural. But, in the first week I met the most delightful, unexpected, loving metro-sexual guy. I've been putting off his advances for 4 years and its turned sour...

Anyways, there a few truths that I keep coming back to:
1) I thought I knew everything in the beggining, now, I've come to the conclusion that I know nothing. My doctor and his specialists have termed me a closet lesbian (I had a good laugh). I often wondered if I was an unrealized lesbian or a straight person "playing the game". But, since I've tried each, in earnest, without any success (but lots of confusion and stress). I've decided I'm neither. I am who I am (bi/omni/try/pan are just close descriptions)
2) I like whom I like. I can't force that without consequence.
3) I may not know where any of this is going or if I'll ever have a stable anounce-worthy partner(s). But, I know my choices in the future have to be made by me, when I'm ready, and when the other person(/people) are ready. :three:.
4)People and timing never seem to be right, but I need to remain optimistic. :cool: Otherwise, I will jade my own chances and this journey is all for not. Everyone deserves love, if they do the work.

Maybe, I don't have as much experience as everyone here, but I think switch genders/type/people whenever I get bord, hurt, or loney. The switches seem to be getting longer in duration. I think it might be due to less free social time to explore my sexuality and longer courting times.

Sometimes I don't.

I started a similar thead [ http://main.bisexual.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9698&highlight=cycling ]and was summarily told the term is fluidity. I've done some reading since. Of what you ask is probably the most common experience for bisexuals. Some texts go so far as to say straight people to some degree also experience sexual fluidity and some gay and lesbian people too, even ones that didn't start straight and go by bi all the way to gay. I thought mine was a singular experience until I asked the question. I was very surprised and oddly saddened to find my experience so typical.:flag2::rainbow:

I think the phrase "swings both ways" is a perfect description for me.
