I feel so guilty for having a gender preference as a bi person 😭 like I prefer women romantically and men sexually but for some reason I just feel so terrible about it like I’m doing something wrong

As a bi dude who prefers femininity dont feel bad. You arent invalid for not being gay enough.

there’s no rule that you have to be attracted to 50% men 50% women if you like any amount of both that’s what being bi means

I feel like I’m faking being bi when I’m trying to find people to hook up with and feel too nervous thinking about having sex with a woman, or thinking about going on dates and seeing myself mostly enjoying the ones I’m on with women etc

I feel like that’s how we’ve been socialized/ socially conditioned to view the sexes

Well women are socialized to build relationships and do emotional work and are expected to be ashamed of sex (thanks to purity culture), and men are expected to have superficial relationships but prioritize sex (thanks to toxic masculinity)

I get that but I don’t really know what it has to do with my preferences, even if that weren’t true I feel like I’d still be feeling the same way

I’m just acknowledging the way men and women are socialized and how that contributes to our perception and interactions with them. Feel free to take it or leave it.
