fluid not in the sense of changing at will fluid in the sense that there is a spectrum for orientatation along which there are infinite points, & the terms gay and "straight" & even bisexual should be used more for communication purposes (fitting a label to you for the purpose of describing part of your identity) rather than worrying about fitting yourself to the label. In the end it is what it and you are what you are no matter what you call it, if you don't worry about what you call it and have an identity crisis everytime it doesn't fit perfectly. Since the spectrum is full of infinite points and only a few labels people have crises when they don't fit a label, but their point along the spectrum is just as real no matter who likes it, those at either end. We might all do better if we must label to accept that this spectrum is there and identify by far left, along the middle, etc. But myself, I prefer descriptive phrases over any labels, thathat's really owning your unique orientation. Such as I am attracted to Susan, I like the man with the short brown hair, I dream of cock, I enjoy watching women dance, etc.
do you think bisexuality is real?
