Hi Dr Klein, you wrote: "The same is true for bisexual people. They are attracted to, and can enjoy sex with, a lot of people, but they may choose to be exclusive with one. It's just as easy/difficult for bisexual people as it is for heterosexual or homosexual people". Here, here. I am a bisexual man (though I prefer flexisexual as a 'label'), I am also in a monogamous marriage with a woman I love very much. This does not mean that I do not find other women or men sexually attractive. I choose not to take it any further than that, because i love my wife, and having discussed this at length we have both decided to be monogamous. Sexual attraction is extremely hard to define, as is 'love' for all our individual constructs of both terms are as unique as each of us are. I have fallen in love with men and women, and fallen into bed with men and women. The important point here is that whether we are bi, hetero, celibate or whatever on the sexual spectrum, it is our right to define that for ourselves, and take little notice of others 'labels'. All of course within the confines of consentual relationships, brief or otherwise. Stating that someone who is in a marriage and is monogamous is not bisexual is as ludicrous as asying that if someone is not married or in a current sexual relationship with a member of the opposite sex, must be gay!! some thoughts Paul Hanton
