Who do you think they're trying to manipulate or deceive? And even if they are doing either one or both, does it really matter to you?

It may be just another person who's either indecisive, fluid, confused, not got the "right" category available etc in how they identify...or a sad, sad individual who's lying to themselves or indeed someone who (tries to) lie their way into someone's bed...

Nothing new here

It’s an individual choice how someone wants to describe themselves how someone can say that another is clearly gay is a wrong judgment if that person says that they are bi

Haha. God knows. Do get some strange questions and you know they're leading but very rarely do I get an honest answer to either why they ask or what it is exactly they want to know. Maybe I'm just too inquisitive but I'm as interested in how a person thinks as I am how they look

I like that approach... I do feel however that for some sexual orientation of a meeting partner is important.

I polygraph them lol.

Because when I ask why, I don't get an answer. But if its you're first question I would assume its important for them to know, otherwise why ask (as the first or second message)

All makes more sense in context. Some people are polite and conversational. Others don't waste time and send one/two word sentences with a question mark. Like

Hung?

Top?

Accom?

Gay Bi?

So if they're economical with their words I assume they hold more weight or value. Not just general questions dropped into a conversation

In fairness, I interpreted your original post with negativity too - posting a closed question asking others to distinguish between sexual manipulation or "just" deception might just do that. The context is just not a very positive one!

It might read differently if you had asked how people would feel if they were chatting with a single man who has bi on his profile but let's you know during that conversation that he's actually gay... would it make a difference to how people see this lad and/or would it impact on further decisions...

Its important to remember the context you refer to is something you are associating with my question ,

Closed question it may be ... negative , thats in the eye of the beholder surly.

I made no reference to how I feel about such a scenario!

I posed a question .

You chose to add your interpretation of context or negativity to it .

The question you suggest I might have asked is open yes , yet is a different question .

What I do take from your reply is that you phrase your comments well .

I refer you to my first answer on the thread - I counter questioned you and received no response.

The fact that you asked a question with only 2 (very negative sounding) options as answers with the eye rolling emoji, either imply (in my opinion) that this is possibly one of your opinions (not excluding others, but you have to admit the implication is there - just look at the reactions you received - negativity often breeds negativity) or are you simply leading others in that direction - if so, then did you do so with intention or not?! That's where I'd ask, where does hate speech start?

Why would you not have posed the question more positively - are these guys confused, have they made a mistake on their profile or have they realised something in their journey and not updated the profile accordingly?

To answer your original question - there is no one fits all answer with the options you give

To be honest op You did start the thread with a very negative vibe maybe not your intention but your on fab you have filters for a reason should you care to look at a certain profiles then that’s your choice but don’t start a thread trying to tell the people on here that your being deceived in anyway

The thread wasn't to tell people I'm being deceived

Filters aren't a solution to what you see as a problem .

To me the thread was neither negative nor positive, just a question of opinion.

I can see how some may view it in a negative light . Thats unfortunate.

Point taken that negativity may breed negativity, which is a reflection of how my post was received combined negative responses.

Its a question .

Simply to see what others thought about such a scenario.

The focus has been put on the "why ask this question , " rather than the question .

I appreciate replies

.

Next time maybe ill post a topic which dosnt get so dramatic

It’s neither, but mostly because neither of the questions make sense.

Personally I couldn’t care less, it’s their profile to do with as they please, without question or explanation, although I fear in some cases this my not be without judgement, which may explain what some may choose to keep certain aspects private, as is their prerogative.

What’s the difference between someone gay and bi, and straight and bi?

The difference may be important to some for different reasons.

May also be 8mportant to some that they feel they can trust whom they communicate with

Who do you think they're trying to manipulate or deceive? And even if they are doing either one or both, does it really matter to you?

It may be just another person who's either indecisive, fluid, confused, not got the "right" category available etc in how they identify...or a sad, sad individual who's lying to themselves or indeed someone who (tries to) lie their way into someone's bed...

Perhaps they’re bi-curious.

They’ve told you they’re gay so it’s hardly deception. I also don’t see how it’s “sexual manipulation”. In the grand scheme of things does it matter if they’re bi or gay?

Oh I’m sure it will matter to some people but those people can make that choice once they have the information.

I am curious though, and this is not necessarily a question just aimed at the OP, but if a bi/bi-curious guy arranged to meet another man for some fun, would it be a deal breaker if you found out he was gay and not bi?
