I'd rather focus the criticism on the men in that scenario. After all, the problem doesn't arise because some women sometimes role-play a girl-on-girl scenario to arouse a man; the problem arises from men who use these male-centric instances of female bisexual behavior to falsely conclude that all most-to-all female bisexuality is of course for or about men.

I'm sorry I find that a bloody offensive statement. The 'problem' is not men enjoying watching girls fooling around in the senarios I'm thinking of (particularly when they don't provoke it in any way) its the girls knowing its a shortcut to getting attention and enough abusing that thusly to give impression that it is a valid away of being 'bi'. I'm not going to heap blame on a guy for not thinking too hard about it, or looking at interests past himself, if that's all the girls are doing too. Why does he have to have the education to reach the right conclusions past his immediate experiences, when you're saying the girls doing the provoking don't have any responsibility in the situation for giving the guy the wrong idea?

I think wait I'm trying to say in my rather sleep deprived state (sorry about that, but this was bugging me) is you really can't blame one party more than the other. You can however, find one party in this rather more irritating then the other, but I'm not sure rationalising criticism based on that is sensible. :P
