Are curious straight men a thing? Or do you all think it’s more of an excuse to cover up being gay?

Curious straight men exist. Sexuality is a spectrum.

Yes for sure. I’ve met many over the years

I think a straight man can be curious. I also think there’s a lot more bi people that just will never accept that about themselves.

Both tbh

We seem overly focused on forcing people to pick a side/label.

Appreciate the response. The use of accept in my other comment is very much something I said from my own experience. I realized early on that I had an attraction to guys and girls but did not accept myself for a long time so was in denial regarding that attraction. It sounds like for you, you acknowledge your various attractions but don’t feel you need to label your sexuality. I don’t see anything wrong with that. If you’re not denying your attractions to yourself, regardless of label I would say you’re accepting yourself. I also don’t care for announcing one’s sexuality, I was very hesitant about doing so after initially coming out because I didn’t understand why I should have to. Had a boyfriend for the last few years and I’m sure many people just assume I’m gay. I do like to say that I’m bi though since people like to forget that bi people exist and can be monogamous.

I know this isn’t a marriage therapy bowl, but my husband has a really terrible tendency of saying things like “you’re being really mean” and completely shutting down during a disagreement when i objectively am not being mean, just truthful or vocal about how i feel about something. It’s a really convenient argument for him because it enables him to either be the victim and me the villian, or forces me to concede my stance and not reach a true resolution. Any tips on dealing with the irrational?
