I'm actually pretty sure that there are enough people of either gender who will not date a bisexual to make the bisexual dating pool smaller than the straight one.
Couldn't they just not state their sexuality openly, but tailor it for whoever they're talking to?
F-F "oh I love women"
M-M "I'm into guys like you"
M-F "you're my type"
F-M "oh, you're very attractive"
No lies necessary
I'm a bi guy. While I'm happily married, I can assure you that if I were looking for someone, I would not do this. Hiding who I am is not fun and can lead to bigger problems later.
I'm pretty sure that figure is heavily weighted towards the gender of the person dating the bi person.
I feel that a lot more men would be fine dating a bi woman than vice versa.
Really? I would expect it to be the other way around
Why's that? Lesbianism/WLW tends to be more normalized and fetishized by men and society, and women aren't generally considered less feminine for being bi. The other way around though often makes people see the guy as less masculine. Its less normalized and people are more likely to just say the guy is gay and if he's a woman there's something hell always be missing.
No, they're right. People are much more likely to be jealous/skeptical/dubious of a same-sex metamour/ex/fling than opposite.
Hmm but maybe some people especially like bisexuals so it balances out
