Not to brag, but one thing about being bisexual is that it’s exquisitely fun. And while every bi person and experience is different, the simple fact of the matter is that bisexuality usually comes with more options for exploration and adventure in your sex and dating life. Even though it’s good for us to debunk the whole bi people will fuck anything that moves’ myth, I will say a wonderful part of being bi is that there’s potential for erotic verve, if not outright sexual attraction, with all of my fellow adults, says educatrix Tina Horn, podcaster and author of Why are folks Into That?: A social Analysis from Kink. Being bi means seeing the potential for pleasure and connection everywhere.
But, uh, where exactly can bi folks actually find such pleasure and connection? That’s right: dating apps. According to recent research from the Pew Research Center, three in ten U.S. adults say they’ve used a dating app in the past year (and that figure was higher, at 52 percent, for those who’ve never been married). But perhaps most interestingly? Lesbians, gays, or bisexuals are more likely than their straight counterparts to use a dating site or app (51 percent compared to 28 percent). All of which is to say that if you’re bisexual and looking for love on the apps, you’re in damn good company.
Maybe that’s because it’s easier to find people who are loving and accepting of bisexuality when you can put it right there on your profile.
