01/6Bisexuality: What it means and signs to look out for
Your sexuality can't be defined by an online quiz or your love language. There are many who understand that they are bisexual and many others who keep wondering if they are too. So how do you really get to know if you're bisexual? For that, you first need to understand the definition of bisexualality.
02/6What is bisexuality?
Traditionally, bisexuality is described as someone who feels attracted to both men and women. But the understanding of gender has become more precise and expansive now. Now, bisexuality is defined as the sexual and/or romantic attraction to people of the same gender and otherwise. Being a bisexual doesn't mean a person will be involved with both genders at the same time. To get a clearer idea of being a bisexual, you must read about these signs that can help you understand better.
03/6You're evolving
You'd be surprised to know that sexuality can change over your lifetime. And so, a person who once identified as straight can very much discover that they feel sexual attraction to other genders (as late as 40s).
04/6Bisexuality doesn't have a look
You'd have definitely heard loosely passed statements like 'she looks like a bisexual'. But the fact is that no sexuality has a uniform or a mandate aesthetic. It's got nothing to do with how you present yourself.
05/6You have a feeling
Like mentioned earlier, you might not know in your earlier years that you are bisexual. It might hit you one fine day. Sometimes you just know it. Some people who identify themselves as bisexual don't even have a distinctive memory of realizing their sexuality. It's just a feeling.
06/6Having sex doesn't define it
You've been wanting to find more out your sexuality by trying to sleep with people of different genders? No, it doesn't work that way. You can be bi no matter what your sexual CV says. It's not like you have to "activate" your bisexuality by having sex with different genders.
