Since bisexuals are interested in both men and women, do you think they are more likely to cheat because they have more options?

Question

RingOfFire · Accepted Answer

1) I think homosexuals in general are more likely to cheat. Promiscuity and sexual flaunting (see "Pride Parades" seems to be part of the psyche).

2) I think bisexuality by its very nature means that you cannot be satisfied with a single sexual partner of only one gender. You must have at least one of each gender (or maybe one hermaphrodite? 😉).

Berethor · Accepted Answer

Yea, it not only more options, many of them want to have man and woman at the same time.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

It's not that they have twice as many partners available.

If a woman loves having sex with a man and she settles into a monogamous relationship with me, I can give her guy sex every day of the week. But if she's bi and starts craving that girl sex, I can't give her that no matter how hard I try.

I married a bisexual girl and she cheated on me with another girl. Never again!

provokeesmokee · Answer

Bisexual isn't just "men" and "women".

It is most accurately described as "attracted to more than one gender". Or, if you're obsessed with binaries "attracted to genders both like yours, and unlike yours".

Source: I am a Non-Binary Bisexual. Meaning I find both genders like mine (trans/enby) and not (cis) attractive.

And because I'm selective and bored of heteros, I only date queers. I don't find het men have enough in common with me. Bi men are much more fun for me as a fellow bi.

As for cheating: unfortunately being a cheating asshole is an equal opportunity trait.

"Having more options" doesn't make someone cheat. Someone who thinks, while they're in an agreed upon monogamous relationship, that just because they can eat someone else's pussy OR dick they SHOULD cheat is an asshole.

Doesn't matter what sexuality they are.

Source: I'm a Non-Binary Bisexual who has never cheated. The one who cheated on me? A cis het man.

Cheating is an asshole behaviour only cowards afraid of asking for what they really want resort to. And like all other asshole behaviours, develops independent of sexuality.

EricSummer · Answer

It depends a lot more on the person than the sexual orientation. About half the population never cheats.

However, if the person has a tendency to cheat and is also bisexual then they have an additional motivation: A single sexual partner cannot give them everything to fulfill their sexual potential. After being with one person for long they may want the other again if only for a short fling.

The point on greater opportunities makes no real difference. There's always lots of opportunity for everyone either way.

hahahmm · Answer

Yes. Imagine there's a bunch of restaurants and your goal is to find a customer who is loyal to your restaurant. Do you think the customer who keeps talking about how they "eat anything on a plate" will be loyal... or the one who is focused on your type of restaurant?

BrookeAZ90 · Answer

I don't think the odds change much. If you live in any decent sized city, you have thousands and thousands of options. The percentage of gay or bisexual people is pretty small, so say you lived in a big city and you had like 100,000 options of the opposite sex in your age range, it becomes like 110,000? if you take gay people of your same gender. Practically speaking, an extra 10,000 is pretty irrelevant when you have so many options to begin with. People are the types who cheat or they aren't.

crossdressingrihno · Answer

No absolutely not.
Having more options doesn’t change anything.
Being a cheater isn’t about options, it’s about weather or not you’ll let someone seduce you. If you survive 10 hot people trying seduce you then you’ll survive 20 or 30 trying to seduce you.

genericname85 · Answer

i think wheather a person cheats or not is not dependend on the options they have but the choices they make. cause everyone can cheat. the decision not to cheat is a matter of character. like i wouldn't cheat on my partner even if every single girl on the planet suddenly offered to fuck me. i "may" break up with my girl. but not cheat.

Exterminatore · Answer

That’s a damn good question. I lean towards no, but it depends on the person.

I have had 0 problems in my life finding girls for casual sex and hook ups. I could get laid pretty much at will if I wanted, that’s without the option of men as I am straight. Yet I have never cheated on any girlfriend or wife.

I don’t think the option of having more potential partners is an issue. I think it comes down to the individual and if they choose to be unfaithful or not.

menina · Answer

No, I don't think so. I used to believe in that and I refused to date bisexual men. Now I know that cheating has nothing to do with sexuality, it has to do with your personality. Anyone can cheat regardless of their sexual identity.

stepyo99 · Answer

Not only because they have more options, but mostly because they're sexual deviants and hedonists.

BlissfullyCurSed · Answer

That is usually the bisexual men who are very hard to satisfy. I am a gay guy and I don't think I will ever be with bisexual men. If I did, it would be an exception. I am literally scare of them. Call me bimenphobic.

UniquelyBasic · Answer

I think a person in general with more options may have an increased chance to cheat. I don't think being bisexual means that person has more options just because they're open to both men and women. It depends on the individual person.

jshm2 · Answer

They often get nothing as they are "bisexual".

4ngelic · Answer

no cause one of their preferences would have to also be gay or bi to want to fuck or date them. and most people of that gender would be straight

WanderingLoveWizard · Answer

Most bi women are more loyal and picky about who they sleep with than normal women. I think it has a lot to do with whatever trauma in their life made them bisexual to begin with

Spongebobssocks · Answer

No. If you can resist from about 4 billion people (one sex) then you can do twice that too.

Spade_01 · Answer

Bisexuals are already mentally diseased, cheating wouldn't be a surprising thing for them.

LiamJHayden · Answer

Nope. Cheaters cheat. Non-cheaters do not cheat. Which way or ways they swing should not make a difference.

msc545 · Answer

no. Bisexuality just doubles your chances of a date on Saturday night.

Morals and values are not subject to sexual preferences.
