Why a Blog?

Well now – great question. I’ve called it my therapy, but really this is my place just to verbally spew all the thoughts that at times consume me.

I’ll give a full introduction in another post, so here I just want to tell you why I think writing will help me, possibly help you and provide me with a refuge for some open and honest personal pondering. I may say some things that you relate to. I may say some things you disagree with. I may say some things that may sound uneducated – if so, enlighten me – i’m here to learn too.

As a quick intro, here’s what you need to know. I’m a 40 something male bisexual, married to a wonderful woman with whom I have 2 children. I accepted / decided to give in about 2 years ago, but really i’ve sorta known i’m bisexual since about the age of 16.

I have experience with both females and males. I lean towards the opposite gender, especially romantically – but I’m not ruling out anything – the potential is there I suppose should my life dramatically change. All I can write about is my experience.

I think the best way to describe how I view being bisexual and in fact bisexuality itself is the below quote from Robyn Ochs:

“I call myself bisexual because I acknowledge that I have in myself the potential to be attracted – romantically and/or sexually – to people of more than one gender, not necessarily at the same time, in the same way, or to the same degree.”

That covers it nicely I think.
