Women are naturally bisexual? ?

i think there are some good points with the holding hands and whatnot as kids. like i was in walmart the other day with my girlfriend and we seen some little girls and they were holding hands and she whispered "thats how it starts". girls are really close with their friends at every age.

I don't mean to offend Dr. Bailey's life long work, but it is bs. I am a female and I have never been attracted to or aroused by the same sex, and I think millions of girls are truly and completely straight. Some people are gay, some are bi, and some are straight, but there is no reason to say we are all aroused by the same sex... Dr Bailey's conclusion is not scientific, it is just an assumption with no proof, nor does it have a possibility to be proven correct.

This biomedical model used to describe a SOCIAL process? It doesn't make any sense.
Little girls are allowed to touch each other (and women too, are allowed to touch and hug) because we're homophobic. we don't want our little boys becoming 'queers', now do we?
Our ideal 'masculine prototype' is a boy who needs no emotional support, who doesn't value relationships with others, and is largely independent. We ask none of this of women and girls. Little girls are allowed to cry in preschool when their parents leave, but little boys are shamed into keeping quiet. Hello? they're 6 years old! Of course they're scared!
Boys are not allowed to express their feelings as freely, which means they're not allowed to develop close, intimate relationships with other boys. It's seen as 'not normal' for boys to hug one another, so they're discouraged from it. Girls are allowed to do this all they want.

Furthermore, how do you explain the results of the Kinsey studies? Most women said they were mostly straight, whereas more men who identified as straight admitted to having sexual relations with other men.

Using 'biomedical scientific evidence' to explain the results of a series of social constructions disguised as 'what's natural' is just wrong.

Well, with a quick scan I didn't see any description of process or demographics, so I don't want to speak to how scientific the finding was.

I imagine that it is a combination of natural inclination and cultural conditioning. There may also be some confusion between affection and sexual arousal. Western culture, esp. modern culture, tends to hold the female form up as a standard of beauty that everybody can appreciate in its natural form. Attractive males with well defined muscles must work very hard to get and maintain their bodies. Many of the women held up to us as beautiful also must work very hard to maintain their bodies, but there is much more appreciation for the natural female body than the male body.

The female body is held up as a pan gender standard of beauty.

Males also have bisexual tendencies. They may not express them as plainly sexually as women though. Hugging, spanking and constantly talking about sex could all be construed as slightly homosexual. I would consider watching heterosexual porn to be a little homosexual too. Sit down and watch either one of the jackass movies. While obviously an extreme example it is only a matter of degree removed from typical behavior. Just think of football in a homosexual sense. Fraternal organizations in general have tinges of homosexuality.

Women express their natural bisexuality by appreciated the beauty of other women, and males express it through, hmm, the right word escapes me... creating male worship situations that exclude women.

Res ipsa loquitur.
memor mori, mahalo.

Most people are bisexual, period. However there's a huge spectrum of bisexuality and many people who are bisexual will likely only have relationships with the opposite sex.
