Oh, that's sexual experiences with less than 10 people I meant.

As far as I'm concerned, Lorrie, one should be able to count a life's worth of sexual partners on two hands or less. :wink:

That said, those who have many more partners in their life are by no means bad people... just more experienced ones. :wink: :wink:

To everyone: I don't believe Shadow Phoenix was trying to be insulting or speak derogatorily about those of you who are bisexual. Not at all. Some are very sensitive about their place in the world, and may find the reference of "greedy" and bisexual a massive insult-- it's really not meant to be.

Regardless of who you love, or how you do it, this is a place to feel accepted and welcome. I hope you all do. :28:

I don't believe in bisexuality, you are one or the other, and if you like both sexes...you are either confused or greedy! lol but come out anyway. I want to know more about our little E-Coven members! :D


How in the heck are bi's greedy or confused? I know what I like. Why can't I like boobies vagina and penis? You know so many people are pimps and just cheaters. THEY are the ones who are greedy, not us! You think just because we're bi it makes us confused or greedy? THAT'S FREAKING RIDICULOUS! That's the same thing as saying "just because you're gay you have aids". I don't think that, but it's the same thing as you calling me greedy and confused! I'm not a slut or a pimp. I don't go for both at the same time. It isn't like I get with a girl and guy at once. Alot of strait guys have three-sums but they're not called greedy.

Again, I don't believe ShadowPhoenix was being intentionally derogatory with his 'greedy or confused' comment. I'm sorry you feel offended, Purple_wind; I assure you no one here is intentionally trying to cause you to feel any offense.

It was just a joke purple wind. As ShadowPheonix explained in the THIRD post. No need to overreact.

He said what he said to mean it. He has his beliefs and all, I was just making a point. So many people call us greedy and confused. I wasn't meaning to be so angry but I want equality too.

Why should it bother you what people call you?

If people want to call you greedy because you're bisexual just agree with them.

The minute you start arguing over things like this you start looking as if you're ashamed.

You're not ashamed to be bisexual are you?

Grey, I wouldn't say that defending what one feels is wrong makes them come off as though they are ashamed-- though I do understand what you're trying to get at. It's when people are vehemently arguing with something and in effect overcompensating, that they are more likely to be feeling some personal shame about whatever it is that's angering them.

Some people have just been put down for so long over some things, that they are very sore subjects. And as we are only human, anger often comes as a part of frustration.

Why should you only have a few sexual partners? As long as you are safely having sex why not explore as much as possible until you decide ( or don't) to settle for one person. I know that this is odd coming from a girl but Sex has nothing to do with love and is a passtime activity and great work out.

JB, you are certainly entitled to your opinion, though I really do disagree with most of what you said there.

Sex is "supposed to be" about love- or at least involve it in some way. Evolutionary methodology dictates that sex is a tool of procreation, and that's it. So, if the basis for your statement is on an evolutionary "human animal" stance, then it would, yes, 'be a good work-out'; but it wouldn't be just 'a fun way to pass the time'. If your reasoning is paralleling a more humanistic approach, humans are again "supposed to be" the reigning, supreme-species and therefore, humans avoid mating indiscriminately like our primitive counterparts may. Morals, and the ability to have them (yes, and opposable thumbs), are what sets us as humans apart from the primates and animal kingdom as a whole. Sure, there are lots of other things that separate us as well, but it is the human differences that set us apart.

That said, not everyone feels that they should reserve their sexual contact for only those select few that they choose to share it with, but generally the more indiscriminate types have also endured something more or less traumatic as a younger person that affects their view on themselves, the world, and their sexual being.

I'm not alleging that you have experienced some wrong-doings in your childhood, JB- I'm generalizing here. Do give what I said a moment's thought, though, please.
And again, this is by no means a personal attack on you- I'm just addressing your question. :wink:

Sex is a highly spiritual thing. I think it all comes down to what one decides. Sex was created by the Goddess and God for pleasure, as well as procreation. Many people would step in at that part and say that gay people aren't able to procreate. Although we may not be able to procreate in the physical sense, we are able to create in the spiritual. That is the trade off. I personally prefer to stick with one person for sex, but others do not feel this bind, which is completely fine. As long as one is safe, then you shouldn't worry. Since sex is a spiritual thing, then it is good for one.

I'm bisexual I am not confused or greedy. I was open to the fact that love can be found anywhere and I wasn't going to hate myself in the future if I fell in love with another girl, there's no sense in hating yourself for who you are.

I'm also monogamous, so I'm very happy and in love with my boyfriend, but just because i'm with a man doesn't change the fact that I am bisexual.
