Bisexual'
The word itself doesn't roll around my mouth particularly nicely and in my mind it is somewhat shunned when it presents itself there.
My sexuality has been a topic of great discussion within this mind of mine recently.
I am reluctant to jump onto the bisexual bandwagon as it were, I believe all people are bisexual to a certain extent. It's only natural to be attracted to at least one member of the opposite gender at some time within our lives. Only society and our fabricated religions say otherwise, unfortunately they are big sticking points with these taboo' feelings.
I like the unique perspective the different genders can put on things, relationships, feelings within the relationships, towards the other partner.
When I think about women, I get waves of protectiveness, a connection on an unspoken level and a large degree of tender passion, if that makes sense.
When I think about relationships with men, I think about being protected myself, that gender stereotype of the strong man' being the first thing which I latch onto.
My feelings towards women may come from my current love interest who I am connected with on a level of pure understanding below that of words, or at least it seems that way to both of us. I feel a great yearning to protect her from the world, nurture her. Is that purely a reserve for the female gender? I am disinclined to think that.
My feelings towards men I think, are rooted in the portrayals of the media, my small stature and my strong desire to be protected' by another. Never having had a relationship with one from the male gender I cannot say much more than this.
Bisexual'
Who knows at this point? Only time and experience shall tell, though at only 16 I feel I have natural place currently rooted in confusion.
However, I would not mind if I turned out to be a bisexual woman one bit.

"I think everyone's bisexual to some degree or another; it's just a question of whether or not you choose to recognize it and embrace it. Personally, I think choosing between men and women is like choosing between cake and ice cream. You'd be daft not to try both when there are so many different flavors."
