i think it’s a misunderstanding. he asked him when he found out he was gay, because he was curious about his own sexuality.. like, “i want to find out if i am attracted to men” instead of “i want to find out if i’m gay” i guess. although they could be totally ignoring bisexuality because some people have this mindset that if you’ve dated women before but go for guys even once, that automatically makes you 100% gay, no exceptions & that you cannot be attracted to women which is shit tbh
It annoys the shit out of me all the time. In this instance though with him saying he's surprised by how attracted he is, I wonder if he's maybe saying that he's only slept with women because he thought he should, and that he was never actually particularly attracted to them? Don't know. Either way, the fact that the idea of him liking both wasn't suggested by either of them is a confusion for me. Bisexuality is a real thing
I see your point and it's really valid honestly, maybe he never liked the women he dated ? but it kinda rubs me the wrong way that nobody, is family or even the one who is indeed gay just stopped themselves and thought ok maybe he likes both? You see where I'm getting at?
Exactly, it's completely normal for someone who is kinda new to all of this question shit not only it's normal it's also ok. Like you're figuring yourself out, you do you. But the idea that even the gay one doesn't know (????) Or doesn't even mentioned bisexuality it's kinda insane to me! I get it it's a story and doesn't seem like it's going to end any time soon, I just hope they give visibility to bisexuality and that is actually a thing!
It’s a yaoi... so a gay manga
Talking about bisexuality here isn’t really the genre
That's a lame excuse - besides, I've read plenty of yaoi that DO acknowledge bisexuality as a thing. Like Oh My Assistant, the gay man thinking his *straight* crush might be bisexual because he keeps flirting. It happens.
True! Am I'm pretty sure Alex from bj Alex is also bisexual. Also yaoi means boy love meaning you can have a bisexual character because bisexual man also like man and it's valid like any other sexuality soo
Why doesn't anyone talks about bisexuality? Like, you either gay or straight. I get it some countries are more close minded then others and maybe not all informed about sexuality but Jesus did really nobody stop to question that maybe he likes women and men?
