View Full Version : Beyond Bicurious Now!

Well--in recent days I met with another guy that I had met, ironically enough, not on this site. We had a great time together and had a great day simply enjoying each other's company.
It was a great time.
Of late-we have seen a number of postings complaining about the fact so many people, primarily males, like to post pics of their privates.
Well-I have to say--I am bully on private part pics now!
I had just joined this other site in the last week or so on a trial basis and did post the seemingly requisite "cock shots" on that site-something I still do not care to do here.
I had many responses to my add on that site, but most just did not "feel right."
I had this one person respond to my add and I in turn responded to his message--I am glad that I did.
We liked what we told each other in the messages and very quickly we made contact via phone--immediately I liked what I heard and we arranged to meet.
He came to see me and while I was at first somewhat apprehensive about allowing a stranger to come into my home for the purpose of meeting to have sex---as soon as he arrived my discomfort evaporated and we wound up very much enjoying each other's company.
Suffice to say--after our time together--I am certainly no longer "bicurious"--I officially and formally state: I am now no longer merely "bicurious" because I am definitely bisexual!!!! :bigrin: :bigrin: :bigrin:
The other point I did want to make--my experience with this person does go to show that you cannot make sweeping generalizations about much of anything, for thanks to my posting pics of my privates on that site--in very short order I met a great person with whom we both had a very good time and he is someone that even if we never have sex again--he is already a good friend. :tong: :tong: :tong:

So you hoooked up, big deal.

I didn't need sex to tell/confirm that I'm bi I knew long before I had sex with anyone.

Who says it's his first time? I don't see anything that implies that, and somehow I doubt that it was.
Stop spamming your blog.
If you really had the balls to go out and have sex with a man you'd have done it by now instead of sitting behind a computer and just thinking about it constantly and blogging about it.

Thanks for everyone who has given me congrats--like I said in the post above--I was not really out to try to get them--I merely wished to share a bit of satisfaction and good feeling that I had from the experience I had--I had wished that such an experience had been with someone from here and as I noted, it is ironic that I did find such an experience at a site unlike this one---one primarily more orientated to simply "hooking up" and not so much a community that this one is--or we hope to keep it being that way.
It really surprised the hell out of me that in such a rather short period of time on there--I had found a neat and compatible person very near me to meet and have a good time with.
As far as safe sex goes-thanks for the concern that way--but guys--I am fast closing in on the big FIVE-O--and as you may or may not know--in my past lives I served several enlistments in the military, had some law enforcement/corrections/criminal justice experience and also started to work on a Master's degree in counselling, even though I subsequently chose not to pursue that line of work---I am not about at this age to throw caution to the wind and not play without being safe---but thanks for the concern and the advice to play safe!!!
And once again-for those of you who did send me congrats--thanks and I hope that each of you, if you have not found someone fun and compatible to be with from time to time or all the time if that is what you so wish--I sincerely hope that find what you are looking for--and for those few aholes who want to bring in the dark clouds and rain on not only my parade but on everyone elses on this site that we have been catching of late---either get nice or just keep your ass moving by finding another site and don't let the door hit your arses on your way out the door!!!!!

So you barebacked and took a load up your ass?
Or did you just swallow?
Either way you're playing with fire and having high risk sex.
This isn't 1977 so you'd better wise up.
Flex-How am I being "holier than thou"?
I've had more hookups and casual sex than you and 12Volt have had fingers up the butt, I don't see the big deal about bragging about a hookup, and most of my close friends are dead from AIDS.
I could care less if I'm not on you and your husband's "buddy list" as I'm not big into PHP board politics and cliques.

You did Great!!
I love this site but not particularly for access to local bisexual men. I employed the exact same method as you did. I joined a site that specialized in local hook-ups. Posted a picture of myself in the required pose and sent messages to HOT prospects ;) , sorted through requests and replied to all, until I had a potential tumbs-up guy. Our relationship is still going strong :bigrin: !
I realize this site is different, so my picture is more discrete. But we all have our sexual desires and we all want to satisfy sexual desires of someone we care for. So sometimes we just have to be aggressive to get where we want to be.

That's how you are being "holier than thou"......you state OPINIONS as if they were FACT. Truth is, you have NO IDEA as to my sex life or anyone else's unless they tell you.
I really don't give a shit how many hookups you've had or anything else about you to be honest.
And I was not addressing you when I mentioned buddy lists. Rest assured, it is not my life long dream to even know you let alone put you on my list.
These forums were not put here for your personal agenda, or anyone else's. So if someone wants to post about how to get fruit loop stains out of their underwear, then guess what??
They can do that. You don't have to like it. There's no rule here that says "You may only post about things that meet with teamnoir's approval."
It's one thing to have a different opinion or to not agree with someone...but it is quite another thing to try to tell someone what they should or should not start a thread about.
If life is "your way or the highway".....well, you know where the road is......

I would like to add my congratulations also. Good for you!! My situation very much parallels yours, in that I am no longer bicurious, and feel that I gained a friend; sexual contact aside. Only difference, I found my friend on this site. After saying hello, messaging back and forth, meeting, we had a wonderful time enjoying each others company. So from those of us who care, enjoy the moment and savor the friendship!
And I join the rest in saying ignore the bozos. I take great comfort in knowing that I don't have to live their lives.
Be safe, have fun!!! :bigrin:

Teamnoir-just does not seem to get it--all I wanted to do with this thread--as in others I have done and as we all do--we have a core group of people on this site who have become "friends" (even if only virtually unfortunately) and we like to share things with them both good and bad.
On this site--we have shared everything in life and death---things ranging from engagements, marriages, births, sicknesses, triumphs and failiures--and sadly the deaths of those close and important to us whether those deaths are of a favorite pet or a close person.
I was merely wanting to share with my friends on this site that I had a turn of good fortune just like I have shared some of the things I am doing now like my art, my decorative painting and my writing.
When I first came here--I spent much time here because I was suffering from an incrediblly bad case of vertigo--I could barely sit upright in the chair and the screen went around in circles but someohow I still would sit in my chair and chat--I have had some other health problems that have come up in that time that have now passed as well.
I have changed a great deal since I came here in many ways and I think that in part---this place and many of the people here have helped me become a better person--I have been able to freely and mostly--uncritically-- been able to explore and come to understand why I had "desires" to experience sexual relations with other men.
So-Teamnoir--I really do not care what your take is on this is---you are new to this site and you apparently do not have a clue about the sense of community we have here and you probably don't care that we do---perhaps if you would think before you post and just pay attention to what we have here and be a bit more pleasant--then you too could become a positive member here that would benefit not only the group but help you as well--if you want that-I welcome you and all is forgiven but if not--then perhaps you do need to find another bisexually oriented web site more to your liking--there are plenty of them filled with petty and shallow people-this one has not had many but my God--of late we do seem to have been attracting some!!!!

I could care less about the cult, clique, or mob mentality at this fourm since I'm not here to hook up and instead I'm here to write.
Why do we have to be sister mary sunshine all the time and be nothing but positive and happy all the time here?
I see this thread as being a moot topic since you've had sex with men before and it wasn't the first time. You sound like you're bragging with this thread when it was only a hook up, you could have walked into a bar and found someone for that.
You're not really proving a point by having sex with complete strangers, letting people you don't know into your house, and not using condoms for anal sex and swallowing his semen.

LOL! We DON'T have to be happy and positive all the time....it's not a RULE.
But sometimes we need to let people be happy and positive...and it doesn't mean that no one wants to be negative.
People just don't like to be DUMPED on when they are feeling good is all.

ah ok.
thanks for clarifying it.
I don't like fourms where if you write anything bad, negative, or that's an unpopular opinion even if it does get people to talk or discuss things how it's dismissed because the person may or may not have a different way of thinking than the rest of everyone else that post there. :)

well team if thats the way you feel about forums like that and if you think bisexual.com is like that, please don't feel that you have to stay, or that you are forced to post remarks that serve no real cause
I fail to see how your opinion and attitude to 12voltman is needed or serves any real purpose in the forum
if you can point out how your remarks in this thread have been considerate, supportive, or respectful...I would appeciate it..... as you have already pointed out your main reason for posting, by saying that you dislike forums where negative, bad and unpopular opinions are not appreciated....and thats all your remarks have been towards 12volt.....negitive, rude, and totally unneeded

Apr 12, 2007, 2:35 AM
Thanks for the show of support--ya know-when I did this post--I had no idea it would serve as such a lightening rod for someone to make such negative comments--
I am not concerned for me--I am a big boy and such things as Team's comments are like water off a duck's back--my concern is that taken in toto with the fact that there has been a number of such incidents of late is most troubling to me because I fear the nature of this very good web site may be irreparably altered for the bad---
I have a thick skin thanks to time in the service and time in law enforcement/criminal justice/corrections.
We have had a very good sense of community here and as far as Team's comment that it seems that I want only "happy and light" on here--he does not know me for as many of you who know me--I have made more than my share of posts dealing with some very heavy topics---I infact have been concerned that peope might take me as being too serious----
I do try to balance those posts with lighter ones and even when I do post some entries dealing with heavy stuff--I often try to soften my words with some humor or at least my attempts at humor.
I do not know why Team and I seem to be engaged in a pissing match--I am getting kind of tired of this and hope that it will end soon--not because I can't handle with but because I don't think it bodes well for the site--and that is more important to me than if I had a fun romp in the sack a few days ago or not!!!!!!
So Team--can we call a ceasefire---I will stand down and order my ship back off of General Quarters if you will----
If this does not stop--I will have Drew lock this thread....this is freakin' pointless--time to move on to something else!!!!!

that's good to hear voltman that you're not taking teamnoir too seriously with his blasting... i seriously doubt there's any need to call Drew's attention to the matter, as this is a very supportive community :cool:
if he's anything like my stepson, he might understand that there's other people reading his posts' but he's probably very limited in understanding how he might be seen as being offensive, i suspect that he's being very literal when he says he's simply here to write, and probably expects that that's all anyone else is here to do as well
however, i suspect that he might be ok with being helped with better ways to express what he's saying, but then again, he might not lol... i don't know teamnoir and aspberger's is a spectrum disorder lol
all i really know is that my stepson responds very well to advice on how to better relate to people, but responds very poorly to simple reprimands... and teamnoir seems to be following that pattern as well... :2cents:
btw, teamnoir,
there isn't any mob mentality here... there are a number of people here, but it's not an angry mob looking to hurt anyone, in fact it's the opposite, most people on here honestly want to help people
there isn't a clique here that's looking to exclude anyone who doesn't "qualify". however there are positive ways to write, and negative ways of writing
in order to qualify as a cult, we would need to listen to and do whatever Drew wants done, and that doesn't happen

.... a lightening rod for someone to make such negative comments....
It would be nice if.....let's say a certain number(?) of people put someone on the Ignore list, the person would be automatically excluded from the site.
Similar to democracy?

Thanks Playful--I did go and look at other posts Mr. Teamnoir has posted elsewhere on the site and wow--
Team--do you like much of anyone or anything--you are crankier than old Don Imus' sorry broken down ass is!!!!!
Take some deep breaths, have a drink--just one or maybe two at most so you can relax--and man--get yourself LAID!!!!!!!!!!!

ah ok.
thanks for clarifying it.
I don't like fourms ................ because the person may or may not have a different way of thinking than the rest of everyone else that post there. :)
not to defend teamnoir or his comments (which I am not), but I did look at his profile and he says he is afflicted with Asperger's syndrome - went to Wikipedia and under "Social Differences" it states in part.......
'People with AS lack the natural ability to see the subtexts of social interaction, and may lack the ability to communicate their own emotional state, resulting in well-meaning remarks that may offend, or finding it hard to know what is "acceptable". '
for further knowledge of AS ... here's the link
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asperger's_syndrome#Social_differences
So team - get a handle on it dude.

First, Volty I am SO happy for you! It's a wonderful thing to find someone you're compatible with. I love it when one of our family has something good happen in their lives. Please, keep giving out good news when it happens. I know that the rest of us want to hear about.
Secondly, I feel the need to point out something in Teamnoir's profile. He claims to suffer from Aspberger's syndrome which causes one to be unable to or have difficulty relating to how others feel or what they think. This leads to rudeness.
So, perhaps instead of responding in kind, we could take a few minutes to try to be a little more understanding.
Just my :2cents:

I had not looked at Teamnoir's profile to be honest so if this is the case--I can cut him some slack--as I said in another thread on this same topic---and have said on here too--putting Teamnoir's comments in context of other similar incidents of late---it was just a bit much--we had just started cooling down from some of those other negative nabobs of negativisim (see who remembers where that little phrase came from)---when Teamnoir had to start up with his deal---I was just kind of fed up with all of it---
