In many ways coming out as bisexual transformed me, even beyond the fact that it made me who I felt I had always been. As a bi women, I felt I could more easily grasp how men thought, and as a woman who had grown up as straight, I also understood how women thought. I felt a sage sort of sanity considering both sides, confident it would make me better at wooing either sex, confident it would make me more understanding of the worries and blunders of either.
