Some fantasies are hot in fantasy and not irl. This includes certain types of people.

If you could see yourself having sex with a woman irl, and it isn't just a fantasy, then I suppose you're bisexual, to some extent (maybe to that "some extent" that a lot of people are potentially bisexual) but if you're not feeling having a relationship with a woman, that's fine, too. You might be like a 1 or 2 on the Kinsey Scale.

Pretty much this. Lots of straight women enjoy f/f porn (and lots of lesbians are into m/m...and lots of people who only like sex with humans are into porn featuring tentacles...and so on).

...on the flip side, we're conditioned to see women as "objects of sexual desire" so more than as "full human beings that you might fall in love with", and there are plenty of people who figure out that they're into the former before the latter. So, like...your self-understanding could stay where it is, or you could end up revising it in either direction. It's all good.

In casual conversation with people who don't need all the fiddly details, there's nothing wrong with rounding yourself up to bi or down to straight, depending on what you're looking for.

This is an interesting way to frame it -- I relate a lot to OP, so thanks. I have a weird rationalization that the attraction I sometimes feel to women doesn't 'count' because I notice women who have certain conventionally pretty qualities (thin, perfectly styled hair, perfect skin) that put them way out of my league (also qualities I don't share so it's unreasonable to think they'd look at me even if they were queer). But I don't apply the same filters when I'm attracted to men who are out of my league. And I wonder how much of this comes from internalized idea that women are there to be looked at.
