Where is a good place to find bisexual people, seeing as most people don't wear convenient labels. Aslo, would a lesbian lady mind seeing me, a bi-curious person? I would like your thoughts on this.

I am currently searching for the bisexual people myself and we are hard to find! The Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual/Trans community here has a newspaper has on and off line that has upcoming events and I have seem some bisexual events there. Also I have just had to search online to find local bisexual womens groups. That being said they don't seem to be meeting often.
I don't know if you are of age to go to bars or not. Lesbian bars is one way, but be careful because SOME lesbians can be down right hostile if you say you are bi or just experimenting. Also be careful because any nasty thing a guy can do to you (like rape you) a woman can do too. It can be easy for some bizarre reason to walk straight into a stupid situation with a woman and not have any warning bells go off because for some reason we are not programmed to think about other women hurting or taking advantage of us. I just had to throw that in there, it comes from experience unfortunately. :(
Most collages and community colleges have some kind of a LGBT group. This can be a great place as other people are just figuring themselves out too.
Beyond that...one thing I am considering...and be careful with this...I think the more out I am the more other people who are bi will find me. So maybe I will wear the lable (or a t-shirt? Maybe it will say, "Got bi?" lol) but I am still not sure about this tactic. Good luck! :2cents:

I just want say something about lesbian wemon and trying to be with one as a bisexual female.. IT WILL NOT WORK... they are sooooooo up tight and afraid that you will go pracing off after some guy. I might be a little buyest though seeing as I tryed to get on an lesbian website and I got shunned and called a "tweener" for being bisexual, but thats just me. FG :bounce:

I agree with the points made.
Lesbians are very, very suspicious of "bi-curious" women.
Lesbianism is not just about sex, its about the whole emotional and connection, commitment gamut.
Bi ladies too often will not give of themselves what a lesbian is requiring, and so very often a "Bi-Curious" will very quickly lose enthusiasm when its nity-gritty dirt-band time. :eek: :eek: :eek:
If you are truly bi, yes, you will be slowly accepted, but don't rush.
In fact don't rush into anything.
As far as meeting like minded bi people, its a big world. there are starting points and some of these have been mentioned; just take your time and go slow.
