So every now and then we open our profile to single guys ...we then get bombarded by "bi" guys wanting to play yet their profile is "straight"
Basically if you haven't got the balls to put Bi or at least curious, don't message people pretending you are

I'm at a stage where I don't care what anyone thinks about me so I'm open with my bisexuality. Not everyone's there yet though and we still live in a world that has a lot of homophobia. Some men grew up in a time when you got crucified for anything even slightly deemed as gay. This fear is deep rooted in many men.
In short don't judge, especially if you're female. You can't begin to relate to what it's like to be a bisexual man |

Yeah, agree with previous comment.
Don’t judge, the world is not quite ready for guys to be open with their sexuality. When a guy declares himself as bi he is not doubling his chances to find a partner it’s quite vice versa, he is halving his chances. It’s not just on fab, it’s applicable in general.
We all have preferences. I totally respect your preferences to meet only open bi guys. I also can understand your curiosity to understand why some guys on fab has straight profile but looking for other type of play. Yet I think the post could have been less judgemental.
Peace to all, enjoy this fab Tuesday

I appreciate that many people don't want to come out of the closet in their general life. I've probably had sex with more men then most of my female co-workers, but I appear straight (hetero-romantic)
But if you can't be honest about your interests on fab, what else are you lying about / concealing? |

Had loads lately
They've been trying their luck with the missus and realising they aren't getting anywhere so they've pulled out the bi card
Funny as fuck watching these supposedly straight men willing to suck a dick to get a go on the missus

Totally Agree it’s guys that are edging their bets. They message us to say they are curious. Then put that on your profile.

The reason a lot of guys have Straight on their profile is because there are a lot of women and couples on here who refuse to meet bi guys so the guys think that by having Straight on their profile gives them better odds of a meet.
Personally I’d rather not lie about my sexuality and just take my chances with getting a meet with someone who enjoys the company of bi men. |

I think there's a massive difference between someone who is unsure of their sexuality and communicates that when messaging and someone who is totally comfortable with their sexuality and chooses to lie about it on their profile to get sex with those who state they don't meet bi guys, when they are in fact bi, and have had many bi experiences.
It's about being lied to, or knowing they're lying to others.
I completely appreciate it will be an internal struggle for some, coupled with fear of homophobia, but it also feels like shit that the person contacting you is prepared to lie either way to get sex. I'm sure they'd find people to be far less judgemental if, even in their opening message they'd explain it was new to them, if that was the case. Or even worse, the ones "that aren't bi and can't get sex with a woman but they're horny so it's a means to an end"

I've found plenty of guys chatting to me and openly bi but status says straight
I had my status as straight for a while then changed it to bi as I realised that this place is for everyone looking for the same thing
It's reasonably anonymous so why hide the thing you like then hunt for others
Just let everyone know up front |

As mentioned some wont put it down as it can reduce their chances of meets.
Some guys won't mention it as its only a thing they do in a couple situation, they don't seek men on their own, but in mmf have played with all.
Some wont say it as stated previously. From a young age it was deemed wrong.
Personally I prefer if they have bi down or atleast looking tvs if they're contacting me.
But it's fab everyone will do here as they see fit. |

It's entirely because of the double standard on Fab (and in life in general) concerning bi men vs bi women.
One is seen as desirable and attractive and the other undesirable and a health risk.
I understand why some men are reluctant to put bi or curious.
I have curious as my status simply to differentiate from those that are fully bi (i.e. indulge in anal with men, giving or receiving) as I'm only orally bi (hence the name!). If my tastes ever change and that suddenly floats my boat I'll switch it to bi.
There's no option to put bi-flexible, situationally-bi or any other choice, so that seems the most appropriate.

There is a whole section of your profile where you can describe your flavour of bisexuality.
Top, bottom, oral only, only in a MMF, only with TVs (yes, a man playing with a TV is bi-sexual)
Personally I'm a Gynephile, attracted to feminine people, whatever the contents of their underwear. But it's a flexible rule. |

It's not anonymous at all. People could be outed for being bisexual and it could cause them real life problems. I don't blame them for wanting privacy. There shouldn't be a sexuality tick box on profiles, it's irrelevant. |

You have public face pics so don't care who sees you on a sex site. You won't be able to understand.  |

Who knows the motivation of individual people, however for some it may be because bi doesn't feel right.
My journey:
It's easy to think that hetro- and homo- two points at the end of the spectrum. Bi is everywhere in between.
But we don't tend to think in detail about labels. Labels after all are short cuts.
So when someone says bisexual, what do you picture?
Probably someone who is equally into guys and gals. Possibly dating both. But something that looks symmetrical in many ways. They are equally into guys and gals romantically, sexually, and intimately.
Tbh, it's the picture I have in my head. It's kinda what is taught in school (at least the subtleties are ignored). It's what portayed in the media. Often with a degree of "illicit affairs". And what (limited) role models there are, probably fit that mould.
But it is a spectrum. And multi dimensional. So when someone is thinking "I like cock from time to time, but don't really want sexual intimacy like kissing with a man, and certainly don't want to be in a relationship with a guy" it's confusing. That is a long way from their image of bi. It's a lot closer to straight. To many, they "appear" straight. And it's not easy to clarify without going into details.
To put it another way, suppose you were going on a blind date with someone described as mixed heritage.
You probably have a quick go to image of their skin tone etc.
At the date, you meet someone who has a Chinese mum and a Mexican dad. They probably don't conform to your image. Now we know intellectually mixed heritage can be a variety of "combinations". We are just lazy. However it's easy to see we have been lazy when we meet the person and it's easy(ish) to clarify.
A bisexual person has to tell you you're picture is wrong. And describe how.
And this is all before we add in different genders. Does fancying a TS make you straight if bi? Does it depend on how far she has transitioned?
Finally, imo there is still a lot of stigmatism around bi guys in particular. As above, it's often portrayed as a dirty secret and they are cheating on their female OH. I've heard people close to me say it's because they are gay, but hiding it. And plenty of profiles have strong preferences here. And unlike race, size, etc it's one built on a belief about bi men. Probably a view about disease risk. Which is funny when some of these "no bi" profiles have a lot of meets ...
I'm trying to own my label. But still feel bi doesn't work. I prefer queer even tho that still has my 1980/90 connotations. Maybe I will go with multisexual. |

Think you have missed the point entirely.
Guys who like to play with cock don't want to prejudice possible meetings with females. Most women are not turned on by bisex guys and pass them by. Hence the deception.
Not condoning, just commenting. |

most (many? Some?) Women aren't turned on by the bisexuality of a guy. Most/many/some simply don't give a fuck what you do elsewhere. However they can be turned on by the guy.
Some for whatever reason will not sleep with a guy because he has thought about men in the past. I don't get that ybh, but as long as they state their preference in an unoffensive way, thats fine. |

Same here, and if I'm on cam get lots of "straight" watching, making comments, asking about c2c, meets, etc. Sometimes wonder if there are any truly straight guys on here. |

I definitely think there's a fab double standard with bi men and women on here .
I'm straight & feel it's expected that I'm actually bi by some men and couples ,even when I've said I'm not.
My other half is orally bi with the right people ,so on our profile we have him as bi curious so we're totally open about it.
If people don't want to meet us due to it ,well that's up to them.
One is encouraged while the other seems to be frowned upon by many.

I think people are well aware of that. I find the lack of honesty and self confidence to openly be yourself a turn off though. |

The many many many hoops people try to jump through to try not to come across as "Homophobic" but end up ??...and neither of us would even agree to meet anyone if they couldn't/wouldn't accept either Mrs4's sexuality or mine if i was Bi and why would you anyway ?? why demean yourself by pretending ?? especially on a so called adult site ??  |

I know of 'straight' men who believe they are straight and Won't admit they are gay/bi but will go with trans/gay men if they are feminine & pretty.
Also many that put they are straight as they know it attracts some gay men

I'm sure if you counted the couple's that look for bi guys (not fab straight ones) and counted the bo guys you'd find the odds are a lot better than straight (fab or otherwise) guys looking for straight couples. |

I've noticed a huge amount of prejudice from women towards bisexual or trans-attracted men.
I don't understand why, who a man chooses to fuck, should affect anyone's choice. Women don't like being judged for their choices, so why do the same?
What happens outside of your connection should not affect you -- it is just prejudice that drives it.
Personally I'm not bisexual -- as in, I don't seek out relationships with men and typically attracted to femininity.
However, I am not squeamish about new experiences, even if it isn't my main 'identity'.
I guess mildly heter0flexible is more accurate -- but that isn't an option, and as such, 'straight' is still a better fit.
I am, also attracted to feminine presenting transexual women, but that option is also somewhat lacking as it mixes in crossdressers.
The point is, the amount of women who judge men for what they seek is pretty incredible -- and it's no surprise that many men feel the need to hide certain aspects of themselves. |

I used to rant about this in the past, but until this site and fabguys finds a better way for it's users to express their sexuality or, more importantly, their chosen sexual behaviour, this will always be a problem.
Some blokes will want to fuck other blokes at points, but still consider themselves straight. I'm sure there are women who feel the same way.
Let's face it, this site is built on a very basic set of values that hadn't been able to keep up with changes in how people identify themselves. |

They don't need to -- while thousands of people are happy to pay for the gold supporter packages, there's no need for them to move with the times.

So, if a man seeks out extremely masculine women to peg him, he's still straight? |

Then just delete any straight guy who asks to play bi if it bothers you that much OP.Its fab it happens.
Just like I'm straight but people especially couples seem to think I should be bi on here and can get quite pushy about the fact they think I would love putting on a show with the woman for the man. Does it annoy me no it just makes me roll my eyes and delete the message and either block or put a note on their profile.
It's fab it won't change and getting annoyed about it is pointless.
If it is a massive bug bear for you both then block all males and go search for men who are bi and ye like the look of them.
People have their own reasons as to why they portray their profile the way they do. Some are nervous of being outed in public when they prefer to keep their fab life private and yes that does happen on here anyone who thinks it doesn't is naieve. Or maybe they don't want to put women off who don't want to meet bi men. There's a load of reasons why people aren't completely truthful about it but at the end of the day it's their choice. It may not suit you but it's easier to delete a message and forget about it than allow it to annoy you . |

This 1000%
If someone we were interested in and physically attracted to happened to have straight on their profile but in conversation said they were open to bi play, we'd not care.
Assuming of course when push came to shove (pun intended) he didn't become 100% straight and demand a 1m distance between him and I at all times.
Or about 1.10m if we were having a Fox sandwich.
Then he'd be asked to go home.

A lot of women reject bi guys on here. I've seen loads of guys that are on Fabguys who are on here as straight. I've even been asked not to verify them on here, that includes guys I've met on here who arent on Fabguys. It is annoying and insulting. I keep having to give up my search for women and couples simply because Im bi and verifications from men. |

Yes that was me! I did a lot of questioning why and realised it was rooted in bigotry. I’m actually ashamed of my previous stance. |

Am I right in thinking you previously felt differently about this? I think I saw a comment from you about it once.
Yes that was me! I did a lot of questioning why and realised it was rooted in bigotry. I’m actually ashamed of my previous stance. "
You shouldn't be shameful of views you had before inspection. We take a shitload of duff information and baises in, and that's gonna cause us to have our own poor programming.
It's hugely to your credit that you have taken the time to do the inspection and change your views. It's a lot easier to justify out old views than create new ones.
You've done everything that can be asked of you. That's should be a cause of pride not shame. |

No need for shame, most people are unwilling or unable to question their own beliefs, overcoming that is huge in terms of personal development. Celebrate the growth and self understanding, it's sexy. |

Introspection is a wonderful thing! And there is no personal growth without it. |

Wow.
One thing I was impressed with when I joined this site is how non-judgemental it is.
This post has changed my view entirely.
It is not up to you, nor anyone to dictate or pigeonhole my sexuality.
Sexuality is a spectrum, not rigidly categorised.
The closest I identify with is ‘Hetero flexible’
There’s not a category on here for that, so I put it on my profile and tick ‘straight’ for ease.
I’ve found the worst category on this site is ‘Couple’, especially the smarmy type who think they are Gods gift to the human race.
Fortunately I have another category which makes people like the OPs tolerable, and that is ‘blocked’.

I guess it doesn’t seem to bother many people what it says on a profile as I do seem to get a lot of unwanted attention from guys on here, even though my profile states that I’m NOT looking to meet with men.
I guess its just part of the experience of being on this site….. it’s not like it takes much effort to ignore or delete any messages that are not suitable or to your preferences. |

Totally agree that sexuality should not be pigeonholed, sexuality is complex and tastes can change from day to day.
If I get chatting to someone who I don't initially find attractive, perceptions can change as you get to know the person, or the same goes for people who drink or do other substances, a mental state can alter what you consider a usual taste or preference.
I consider myself straight, I'm not physically attracted to men. But I have had sex with both men and women. I find a convincing TV to be just as attractive as a "REAL" woman. Its the feminine look and not the equipment that attracts me. In a MMF scenario I'll happily experiment with another man, for me it is the woman that is erousing me and the rest is tied up in the activity.
I have tried sleeping with a man with no woman involved, for me it didn't feel right. I'm happy to have found that out through experimenting.
People should feel free to experiment without being judged by a couple of tick boxes. Life is too short.
Gay, straight, bi or curious should not be of any concern. The fact is this person has reached out to you, and finds your profile of interest and wants to engage with you as a couple. Are you gonna judge them on a couple of tick boxes?

"I know of 'straight' men who believe they are straight and Won't admit they are gay/bi but will go with trans/gay men if they are feminine & pretty.
Also many that put they are straight as they know it attracts some gay men
That's just from my experience
So, if a man seeks out extremely masculine women to peg him, he's still straight?"
Yes, he's just attracted to strong masculine women |

Why don't you block incoming messages from men?
Then the only unwanted attention you'll get is people viewing your profile. And looking harms nobody.
The site has tools to help stop unwanted contact but many choose not to use them.

"I think there's a massive difference between someone who is unsure of their sexuality and communicates that when messaging and someone who is totally comfortable with their sexuality and chooses to lie about it on their profile to get sex with those who state they don't meet bi guys, when they are in fact bi, and have had many bi experiences.
It's about being lied to, or knowing they're lying to others.
I completely appreciate it will be an internal struggle for some, coupled with fear of homophobia, but it also feels like shit that the person contacting you is prepared to lie either way to get sex. I'm sure they'd find people to be far less judgemental if, even in their opening message they'd explain it was new to them, if that was the case. Or even worse, the ones "that aren't bi and can't get sex with a woman but they're horny so it's a means to an end"
