One of the things that makes our world beautiful is the diversity. People are all so different, from their cultures to diverse orientations. That means that we all experience life differently as well, thus it's important for us to listen to each other's perspectives, at least from time to time.
So, today, let's take a look at bisexual people's experiences with dating different genders. It might seem like a niche topic, but you’d be surprised by the fascinating insights it offers. So, let's dive in, shall we?

In my opinion it's way easier living with a partner of the same sex. There's just a certain comfort about it.

Two people in a forest setting having a conversation, exploring dating experiences across genders.
Men are easier to talk to and get a straight answer from. Even the most immature men I've dated at least are going to say the words they need to say.
Every relationship I've been in with women has been a lot of miscommunication that I can't navigate through

Edit: I am a man sorry for not clarifying
A few people have gotten the impression this is ne being hateful to women and I wanna apologize if it comes off that at all.
I just wanted to give my personal experiences in dating.

A person talking on the phone, looking thoughtful, discussing experiences of dating different genders.
Bisexual woman attracted to men and women. The experiences differ as a result of socialization.

Men are more likely to be direct / push things forward, while women play games or ghost you.

Women are more likely to be 'emotionally intelligent,' but overthink and become mentally ill/want you to be obsessed with them. Conversely, men are more likely to be emotionally stunted and want to date someone who will be their mother.

Both genders will want you to fix them. Equal chance of being crazy. Hope this helps.

I enjoy both. They both have pros and cons 
Women just tend to listen to your body better having the same anatomy 
Men have a better ability to be dominant for me personally .

Getting outside the [intimate] side I'd notice that in my experience at least men would give me compliments on how I look far more than woman partners did.

However sometimes it was clear compliments where being given because they where h***y and wanted to f**k.

When women partners did give compliments, whilst rarer they nearly always where more about liking a specific feature/outfit etc than a "I immediately want to f**k" signifier. Men always felt more 50/50 on that.
