ZitatOriginal von Pilvi
Ich würde ja viel lieber mal etwas über einen Mann lesen, der bisexuell ist...da kenn ich nämlich nur Frauen....hab noch nie von einem Mann gehört, der bisexuell ist. Geht das nur mir so?
Hallo Pilvi, ich hatte ja schon in meinem Beitrag diesen Artikel von Mark Simpson verlinkt, den ich sehr interessant finde, ein Ausschnitt daraus:
Curiouser and Curiouser: The Strange "Disappearance" of Male Bisexuality
Straight women now have something to gain and little to lose by admitting an interest in other women. Rather than exile them to the acrylic mines of Planet Lesbo, it makes them more interesting, more adventurous, more modern… just more. For the most part, however, straight men still have nothing to gain and everything to lose by making a similar admission. It renders them considerably… less. Unlike women, men’s gender is immediately suspect if they express an interest in the same sex. What’s more, any male homosexuality still tends to be seen as an expression of impotence with women. In other words: men’s attraction to men is equivalent to and probably a product of emasculation.
A straight man admitting that he finds masculinity desirable – as so many clearly, thrillingly do – threatens to cost him the very thing he values most: not only his own manhood and his potency, his reputation with the ladies, but his lads-together homosocial intimacy with other men. It’s a nasty, vicious, bitchy trick to play on millions of red-blooded men, but this is what passes for common sense in the modern, anglo-saxon world.
When a male in public life is outed as bisexual – and, with the exception of controversy-courting David Bowie in the 1970s, who now denies he ever was, they almost never come out willingly – he is immediately represented as ‘gay’. For a man, unlike a woman, there is no such thing as ‘half gay’, it’s tantamount to being half pregnant.
[...]
If you’re a man who loves women, admitting a sexual interest in other men – or even failing to mention how uncomfortable/ill the very idea of it makes you feel – can apparently cost you your virility, and expose you to public ridicule of a kind that people might think twice about if you were actually gay. Partly because a degree of political correctness now protects gays, and partly because gays, unlike bis, ‘can’t help themselves’; and at least you know where you are with them – especially now that they get registered (in the UK.) You won’t even be praised for your ‘honesty’ as everyone will think you’re ‘really’ gay anyway. Why do bisexual men not come out? Because there is no good reason to and plenty of good reasons not to.

Gibt es ja leider auch in Slash. Für Manga war ich wohl schon ein bisschen zu alt, das hat mich überhaupt nicht erwischt, ein paar hab ich auch gelesen.
