ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Bi-curious

Okay kiddo, so sometimes people feel a little curious about what it might be like to have feelings or do things with someone of the same gender as them, even if they usually like people of a different gender. This is called being "bi-curious". It's kind of like when you try a new food and you're not sure if you're going to like it or not, but you want to try it and see what it's like. Some people who are bi-curious might end up realizing they actually do like the same gender more than they thought, but some might decide they prefer a different gender. It's all okay, because everyone can explore and figure out what they like, as long as they're being respectful and kind to everyone involved.
