Bisexual does not equal polygamist

Contributor: Retro.old Retro.old
Aren't you like me tired of people asking questions kin of: "would you date bisexual person without being afraid she/he will cheat on you", "can bisexuals be trusted", and crap like that... Why people do not realize that monogamist or polygamist lifestyle has nothing to do with sexuality!?

People tend to think that kind of thing about all kinds of "fringe groups", unfortunately.

I have never heard that. They must be dumb to think that people who are attracted to both genders are into polygamy. The two have NOTHING to do with each other!

It's like asking why straight men assume all gay men are secretly lusting after them. (Yes I realize this is a generalization but c'mon we hear it often enough)
Being bi-sexual does't mean you have a problem being monogamous...it just means you aren't adverse to sex with either gender (or any permutation of gender). A monogamist is capable of being monogamous regardless of their sexuality. Its a silly and hurtful assumption to make saying a person who enjoys all that gender has to offer cannot commit and be faithful.

Thanks Airen Wolf! I think there's some grey area where guys think that if you love to have sex you're not picky, so if you like both sexes you are even less picky. I have to re-drill into my husband's head that even though I'm bi and we can have a girlfriend, I'm not ok with just any girl (and he is, standards lower for him when there's extra pussy). I think that if you're bi and dating then you have to decide what you want and discuss comfortable rules with you're g/f or b/f. Rules help a lot for my sex life

I agree that it seems to be a fringe group thing. If you're not "just" straight, people will assume you're into everything! I'm into BDSM as well as being bi, but I'm monogamous with my partner.

It's stereotypical. Because media portrays those who are bisexual as tending to have more than one partner, and because so many of us do tend to have more than one partner or want to be in open relationships, it is a common assumption that we will cheat or can't be trusted.

I've always been in open relationships and dated more than one person at a time, several at a time at some points, but they were all aware of one another, and actually were all friends, talked regularly, we got together and socialized, so nothing was kept secret, but as of late, my current boyfriend who is a jealous person and I decided to keep it just he and I, as I was not with anyone else when we began dating, and I can assure anyone who may think otherwise, there is NO chance of me cheating on him

I am 100% against cheating, and I enjoy spending time with him, and am happy having just him in my life. He doesn't have any fears that because of my sexuality and the fact that I've been in open relationships that I will cheat on him, and it is unfortunate that so many people have that misguided impression!

Haha. People like that, who have no common sense, make me laugh. Saying that someone who is married is gonna cheat because they are bisexual, is like saying stright people who are married are going to cheat. Straight people are more likely to cheat, in my opinion. Lol. In my relationships, I have only been cheated on by the men.
