you like whoever you want to like and get off on whatever you want to get off on, op. don't worry about what other people think or what the right labels are. you're not who you are because of the labels you give youself.

tl;dr sexuality is fluid, be what you want.

[ionizable.livejournal.com]

haha we're kinda opposites, op. i mean i identify as mostly straight too, but heck if i'm never really attracted to female characters the way i am to random girls all the time irl. i don't think you need to worry about not fitting into any bisexual "categories" because at the end of the day no one else has any right to tell you what your sexuality is.

[(Anonymous)]

Well, those are some good looking women.

In all seriousness, though, don't sweat it--a lot of people are attracted to fictional characters that wouldn't be attractive to them in real life. Identify how you want.

[(Anonymous)]

Just means some characters or people are extra-attractive to you regardless of sex... I mean, I'm a straight female and probably a 1.5 on the Kinsey scale, but if I could look at pictures of Kate Winslet naked all day I probably would. I don't know what the hell it is about Kate Winslet...

[ms-cucumber.livejournal.com]

I think it's because people on television (or movies) are beautiful, highly sexualized, and charismatic, so it's pretty natural to feel attracted to them regardless of how you identify in real life.

[citrinesunset.livejournal.com]

The thing that makes bisexuality complicated is that it can cover a lot of ground and also vary from individual to individual a lot. Two people can have similar feelings and experiences, and one might ID as bisexual and the other straight or gay. Labels are mostly a way for us to describe ourselves. But they can't perfectly cover the complexity of human experience, and sometimes no label is a great fit.

A lot of people experience attraction that isn't 100% heterosexual or homosexual, whether it's attraction to fictional character or actors or what have you. Don't sweat it too much. You're you, you're not that unusual, and however you identify should be what's most comfortable for you.

[streetcake.livejournal.com]

I'm the same. I have dozens of fictional and RL famous women that I have puppy-love crushes on, or at least find attractive.

Really, though, women in fiction or Hollywood are always more beautiful and glamorized than in real life. And if they're not beautiful, then they're a lot kinder and more interesting than anyone in real life. Same with guys in media.

Plus, finding someone attractive doesn't necessarily mean you want to date them. If you aren't interested in pursuing a relationship with women yet find fictional/Hollywood women attractive, that's fine. It's not weird or hypocritical or anything.

[havemy-heart.livejournal.com]

Everyone else has basically said what I was going to. It's normal to be attracted to fictional characters and not their real-life counterparts. Bottom line is like whoever you like and don't stress about labeling it.

[(Anonymous)]

pretty is pretty. don't sweat it. i'm pretty damn gay (girl gay, just to clarify), and i'd hit ryan reynolds like i hated his momma.

[(Anonymous)]

"I'd hit Ryan Reynolds like I hated his momma"

Thank you, using this phrase from now on. It's beautiful.

[rosehiptea.livejournal.com]

I pick up so many great "I'd hit that" expressions here.

The great part is that no one I know IRL is on the internet much so they haven't heard them yet.

[writerserenyty.livejournal.com]

this is basically me, lol. I tend to be attracted to/crush on female characters/celebrities, but IRL I'm attracted to men.

I don't think it's all that weird (since characters aren't real, and celebrities are often glamorized beyond normality), but that's just me. ^^

[amethyst-rei.livejournal.com]

Oh, same here, OP. I don't even glance at girls (that way) IRL. Given the chance, though, I'd jump Anne Hathaway's or Sarah Michelle Gellar's bones.

I still consider myself mostly straight, though. Like, 90%.

[smittenlotus.livejournal.com]

Having a few crushes on women does not make you bisexual. If you've never thought about having sex with a woman or actually dating one, don't worry about it.

[rivulet027.livejournal.com]

Use the labels your comfortable with. You don't have to be a Kinsey 3 to be bisexual. I'm pansexual but consider myself a Kinsey 5.

[fm-gatekeeper.livejournal.com]

To be perfectly honest, no, I wouldn't go around IRL calling yourself bisexual if you are only bisexual in situations regarding fictional characters. Some of us who are bisexual in situations regarding real people might be a little annoyed at the implications of that--we have a hard enough time trying to convince people we're not just "straight and trying to be edgy" or "gay and trying to be normal" as it is without people accusing us of only saying we're bisexual because we think some people on TV are hot.

Still, you're obviously not 100% straight and just because none of the labels fit you doesn't mean you have to choose one! Sexuality is fluid and we'd all be better off if we didn't have to stick things in boxes constantly anyway.

[(Anonymous)]

This works.

The spectrum's huge and covers, by definition everybody, including the OP. Who may be a 1 on the scale of some guy named Kinsey, but should in any case stop worrying about it. I mean this in a nice way; I did too at some point. :)

(Sidenote: EXCELLENT choices of women. Mmh, Anna Torv.)

[fm-gatekeeper.livejournal.com]

Yup. Sexuality is a spectrum, a color wheel--it can be many things to many people but either way it's huge and complex and not made up of the handful of labels most people are familiar with.

I'm a straight up Kinsey 3 if we're using that scale, but even that scale is not the be all end all of everything ever (it certainly doesn't describe me well enough for my tastes). And this is a side note, but to be perfectly honest part of the way I discovered I was bisexual was through noticing Keira Knightley's cleavage in the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie. True facts. The OP may well fall under the heading of "bisexual," or maybe not, but it's totally up to her and how she feels about it.
