Bi-curious is a term that is sometimes applied to a person who generally identifies as heterosexual but feels or shows some interest in having sexual intercourse with someone of the same sex. The term is also occasionally applied to a person who generally identifies as homosexual but feels or shows some interest in having heterosexual intercourse.

Description

Like almost all attempts to define sexuality, there is some dispute over when the label of bi-curious is appropriate. However, it is typically accepted that a person can be considered bi-curious if:[1]
  1. they are contemplating, intrigued by, or otherwise attracted to the thought of crossing the boundaries of their typical sexual orientation and pursuing a romantic and/or sexual relationship with a member of the same sex (if their sexual orientation is heterosexual) or someone of the opposite sex (if their sexual orientation is homosexual).
  2. they are seriously considering identifying as bisexual, but have yet to do so.
