[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Over 80% of women who identify as bisexual get primarily into long term relationships and marriages with men.

I can't find the stat right now but there is also a decent number of women who identify as bisexual who have never had a romantic and sexual relationship with another women. They find women attractive and have crushes on them and maybe kissed someone but it doesn't go much beyond that for some.

It sounds like your kids are still young. Sexual orientation identity changes a fair amount across the teen years before stabilizing mostly by 19 and even more so by 21.

Let them be who they are now and know that teen exploration and identity is not necessarily indicative of adult identity.[/quote]

This is true for a few reasons.  First, it’s a spectrum.  A person can mostly be straight but sometimes attracted someone of the same gender.  Not everyone that’s bi is 50/50.  Many people are more like 70/30.  Second, many women want generic children and if you’re bi, it’s easier with a man.  Third, society is literally built for straight people.  It’s just easier to navigate live as an apartment cishet couple.  Two people holding hands, when they’re straight, is no big deal.  Holding hands when you’re in a WLW couple?  Many people still make comments or give looks.  Even in the DMV.  It’s a lot less common here than other places but people will literally pass you on the street and say “lesbians” out loud as you pass them.  Or people would stare at you.  Gay people don’t walk past straight people holding hands and say “straights” just loud enough for them to hear.[/quote]
