Leave it to Woody Allen to have said being bisexual "doubles your chances for a date on Saturday night." I've never swung both ways and never had "sexual relations" with a woman. Like many gay men during my early years of being out, my mom wondered if I just didn't find the right gal to date and settle down with. I think, now that I am 40 and yet still single, she has given up on that belief. I haven't been that successful in the gay dating game, but I'm not ready to throw the towel in on finding the right man. But what about a bi guy? Thinking about it, my longest relationship actually was with a bisexual man lasting about 5 1/2 years. All in all, it was less confusing than most of my relationships with gay men.
I think for many of us, bisexuality is confusing and it may be confusing to those who identify as bisexual In an interview last year, British singer Duncan James stated, "so I understand that saying, 'Bi now, gay later'. But it's 2013 and there's nothing wrong in being open with your sexuality." As of 2014, James identifies as gay, but still sleeps with women. When they look like him (pictured here), they can do whatever they want.
I would go as far to say Bisexuality is considered to be the lesser letter in the LGBT alpahebet soup. I didn't even know they had their own flag. With transgender individuals like Laverne Cox becoming more mainstream, the T may be more accepted than the B. Is that okay? Acceptable? Shouldn't all be considered equal and treated the same way?

Brenda Howard (aka the Mother of Pride) was a New York-based bisexual activist. One of her most lasting contributions came from her work commemorating the first anniversary of the Stonewall riots, which many consider the genesis of the modern LGBT rights movement. It was Howard's idea to host a weeklong series of Pride events, culminating in a Pride march, which is now celebrated in countless cities and countries around the world.
