[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You probably know this already but most people do phase out of bisexuality into just gay.

I’m 43. Being gay or bi at 13 was not even in my radar. For what it’s worth I’m extremely happy. Married to my husband for 20 years. 3 kids. Thriving.  And your sons has way less challenges today than existed 25 years ago. [/quote]

Please stop trying to erase us.

OP, I’m bisexual. We exist; our identities are not experimentation or a waystation to something else. We are just as legitimate as everyone else.[/quote]

And did you come out as bisexual at 13?

There reason the statement was made was because, as so many gay men will tell you, claiming to be bisexual was the stepping stone on the way to fully acknowledging their homosexuality to the point that it's cliche. And even today there's far more gay men then genuine bisexual men, if we accept all those in the closet cheating on their wives on the dating apps as gay rather than bisexual.

I do think it's unlikely a 13 year old boy would announce he's bisexual if he was genuinely bisexual. That tends to come out later in life. They chase the girls first due to popular pressure. It's sensible for the OP to be aware of this likely inevitability.
