1) You misnumbered a footnote: (attractive sometimes but not generally as much as men, would probably only be able to judge if I'd want to date one if I was single again4) should be 5.
2) From the conversation link: Don't have labels for "girls who like to kiss girls and cuddle with them and have never had spark & opportunity to find out if they'd like more/other than that."
I really could've used that label growing up. :/
3) Given how much crap bisexuals get given, would anyone really pretend to be one? (The answer: Yes, but only when they think no straight people are around. This has not been the case with the accusations I've encountered)
Is there room in this conversation for the thing around that one Katy Perry song, or would that just be opening a stupid can of worms? (Srs post, I don't really know much about that area, on account of having no life.)
4) If the "closeted bisexual" is happy in their relationships with men, is it that big a deal that they're not dating women too, even if they might (in your opinion) get something out of it?
IMO it's a bigger deal that they're actively discouraged from dating women too, and the subject should not be pressed unless/until there's a safer space for queer types in general culture.
5) I've had a lot of similar trouble with the Kinsey Scale Jump thing; I think we're kind of in the same range, so yeah. (With some additional complications, at least on my part, where I like looking at sexy folks in general, but I only get Hot And Bothered by sexy guys on an objectification level.)
