What is bisexuality? Where does it come from? Is there something wrong with me ?

So you may have just noticed, or have known for years that you are different. You may have just looked up at someone of the same sex not long ago and realized “Damn…they are kind of hot.”  Or “I wouldn’t mind seeing them naked.” And then “What the hell is wrong with me?!.”  Or you’ve  always known you found people of both sexes attractive. But why? Im sorry but I cannot solely explain why you feel the way you do. Bisexuality is hard to explain. Research has been done on for years on the subject, but no one can exactly pinpoint what causes people to be attracted to both sexes. Being bi, (as some of you may know if you do have attraction to both sexes) can be extremely confusing and complicated. Especially in a world were bisexuality is seen as being confused, or in denial, or not even existing at all. In fact, bisexuality is something that is very real and occurs more often in society then people think to believe. Statistically it has been proven that 1 in 10 people are gay. However, it has been suggested (and I also believe) that this number is much higher. In fact, almost 1 in 3 people are thought to have some type of homosexual attraction. That is roughly 33% of the population. So no need to feel embarrassed or lost. You are not alone. Actually a large percentage of people who are bisexual (and other LGBT) will not disclose their attraction to the same sex solely on fear of persecution and being shunned in society. Only 1.3% of the American population considers themselves “Bisexual”. But to answer your question, you probably feel the way you do because you simply have feelings for both sexes. It may be a phase, it may not be. But this website is here to help you.
