Sometimes I think I'm almost entirely straight and then I see a cute boy and I have to physically stop myself from going on a face journey so they don't realise that I'm having a wholeass Bisexual Re-Crisis at them.

Which is to say there's a cute new staffer at a restaurant I get takeout from and I'm Supremely Useless, Holy Shit.

(though, like, from the gay side; I could just call myself a lesbian and everyone would pretty much go 'yeah that sounds right', and yet... sometimes, boys are pretty...?)

You know, I have no idea? I also get the impression that people who are more prominently attracted to men don't feel this sort of effect as much, though -- like, they know they like looking at men just in general 'cause they find men attractive, and also sometimes there are men who are like WOW for them, too.

I think the shovel effect, for me, is because I'm so mad that I find a man attractive, like, how dare he be hot enough to register as hot to me, that's rude.
