The reason that it seems like so many bisexuals end up in opposite-sexed relationships, generally speaking, has nothing to do with anything other than the fact that there are more people out there attracted to just the opposite sex than the same sex, or both.
Let’s play with some hypothetical, overly simplistic – and LGB exaggerated – maths.
Let’s say that Bisexual Barry has a list of 100 men and women that he could potentially date.
80 are heterosexual, 10 are homosexual and 10 are bisexual. 50 men, 50 women, where each sexuality is equally represented.
Since 40 of those men are heterosexual, now Bisexual Barry only has 60 people left that might be interested in him.
5 of those women are lesbians, so now Bisexual Barry only has 55 people left.
Out of those 55 hypothetical people, Bisexual Barry now ends up with:
So Bisexual Barry only has an 18% chance of ending up with a man, and an 82% chance of ending up with a woman according to this overly simplistic set of maths.
That’s before checking for compatibility through looks, ambitions, personality and seeing if the other person is just as interested, too. That’s also pretending that none of those original 100 people are biphobic.
Bisexuals don’t automatically end up in opposite-sex relationships for “privilege” or any other of that biphobic nonsense.
Most of the time, it’s basic maths.
