And, really, whatwasstopping me from never sleeping with a guy again?
Its an amazing idea in theory: none of the misogyny,more orgasms.

Im not alone: As many as88% of bi peopleare in opposite-sex partnerships.
But a lot more is at play too.
From the moment we could spellcrush, societys been nudging us toward that classic boy-meets-girl storyline.
And then theres the matter of what happens when bi womendoseek out same-sex relationships.
Its highly influenced by misogynistic and porn stereotypes, and representation in the media is lacking.
(And to those whoarebi curious: Roos recommends being straightforward to keep people from getting their feelings hurt.
Some women like sleeping with newbies!)
The short answer: Yes, you are.
But the pressure of having to constantly prove your queerness can be exhausting.
Bi women have nothing to prove, to ourselves or anybody else.
It can happen between a man and a woman, as well as between two women.
Ultimately, like relationships between people of any sexual orientation, its up to luck.
