I like to consider bisexuals the opposite of asexuals when it comes to generalized attraction (bisexuals are attracted to either sex, while asexuals are attracted to neither). But, considering there are bi-asexuals, it definitely doesn't say much about your sex drive. Maybe the model should say "Romanticism" instead of "Eroticism"? But that wouldn't necessarily be true either. It's still very imperfect.Ilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12795337226989102549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223027726680052006.post-53636010347119362008-02-07T20:17:00.000-08:002008-02-07T20:17:00.000-08:00That's an interesting find, but it is still simpli...That's an interesting find, but it is still simplistic, and it's also flat-out wrong in its representation of bisexual people. The fact of the matter is, bisexual people are not necessarily more sexually driven than hetero- or homosexuals just because we are attracted to "both"/all genders, as these models would seem to suggest.<BR/><BR/>Bisexual people are no more likely to be promiscuous, or have more sex, or have a higher sex drive, than hetero- or homosexual people. Bisexuality, in other words, is <EM>not</EM> the opposite of asexuality with regards to having a sex drive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223027726680052006.post-79559330185624936992008-02-06T16:51:00.000-08:002008-02-06T16:51:00.000-08:00Likewise, and you are very welcome!Likewise, and you are very welcome!Ilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12795337226989102549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223027726680052006.post-18521803305271639422008-02-05T18:36:00.000-08:002008-02-05T18:36:00.000-08:00Hey, thanks for the plug, Ily!Hey, thanks for the plug, Ily!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223027726680052006.post-6340614925009154112008-02-04T14:49:00.000-08:002008-02-04T14:49:00.000-08:00Yay, Lia's back!

That makes it a much more accurate representation, I think. (And it's pretty too.) <BR/>I like the description of this blog given on Apositive- kudos to our Ily- she's a prolific poster!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
