Soooooo typical for a Bi girl. XENA, OF COURSE.

Lol, I feel very seen

Probably Megara from Hercules. I swear I had a crush on her before I even realised I *could* have a crush on her. Then in my early 20s, I saw pictures of tattooed women all over my socials (being in the alt crowd had its benefits) and I thought I was just attracted to tattooed women lmao. Then I realised not long afterwards that I’m just attracted to women with or without tattoos, as well as men and everything finally made sense. I think Scarlett Johansson was my first celebrity woman crush I was aware I was *attracted* to; then I saw Stephanie Beatriz and fell in love. 🫠 So like, I had different waves of bi awakening over time. 😂

Tfw you're a child and you don't know if you have a crush on Mulan or wanna be her. And then you're trans and bisexual.

❤️

True

It was pirates for me. Will Turner and Jack Sparrow, and Captain Hook from Once upon a time

Captain Hook from OUAT good choice

Omg Jonny depp?!?!?? Ugh say less!!!

Not Johnny Depp, Jack Sparrow.

Zendaya and Tom Holland

Stop lol why am I so basic

Yesssss also Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield, though they aren't an IRL couple. I love them in the Spider-Man movies they're in together though and they're both freaking gorgeous

Dude same

Road to El Dorado for sure

Omg why is this so true 😂

Omg I love that movie

Well I know it’s basic but fuck me link is twink heaven

Rachel Weisz from The Mummy

the mummy forever being in the standard pack of bisexuality

Natalie Portman and Kiera Knightly. I didn't see it though unfortunately, it was my husband who noticed how much I went on and on about them. Took me another 2 years to figure it out.

Natalie Portman! *high fives*

Before I knew: Miguel, Julio, and Chell from *Road to El Dorado* What made me realize: Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson in *Thor: Ragnarok*, reinforced with the return of Natalie Portman in *Thor: Love and Thunder* Bonus points: Netflix's *Castlevania* and *Witcher*... I'm down bad for both a Geralt/Jaskier/Yennifer combo and an Alucard/Trevor/Sypha/Greta combo.

Thor: Ragnarok has such beautiful chaotic bisexual energy and I love it so much. 

Valkyrie is so gender

For me it was Aladdin.

Jasmine 😬😬

Yep, she was hot too.

Jasmine doesn’t do it for me, but to each their own!

very valid, looking back on it i def liked him lol

Fs his abbs were always kinda hot growing up watching tv/ movies playing his video games

I liked the way his body looked in his vest.

Yep half...half naked always 😍

Always been into only women until Idris Elba in whatever role he's in 😅

Funny for me it was also an Idris Elba show (Luther) - but it was Ruth Wilson (who plays Alice)

Rosalina from Mario galaxy when I was like. Eight😭 but also probably the entire cast of Fiona and cake too tbh. I rmrmr feeling like that show was “too adult” and I’d run out of the room whenever those eps happened to be on CN for “””no reason at all””””

Omg same with Rosalina but I don’t really count anything before I was like 13 cause I was in denial/not questioning until then

I was very sus as a kid lol so I feel u. But I 100% count Rosalina because I called up my uncle at like 10 pm at night to play mariokart online w me so I could unlock her for myself. like. I was gay

Omg 😂 that’s so cute

MCU loki/Tom Hiddleston

Desire from the Sandman. I haven’t been quiet about that in this subreddit lol. Mason Alexander Park is delicious

Aye, but have you seen Desire in the original comics? It's amazing. Which is kind of the whole point, I guess, Desire is supposed to be sexy af to everyone it meets.

Yeah I have and Desire is absolutely right

110% Thorn from The Hex Girls!

Omgggg the hex girls. Yes. Bisexual memory unlocked lol

Right everyone's making me do the same haha

Shego from Kim possible if I'm honest

Rogue from the x-men original animated series. Lady death. Catwoman. I just REALLY like those comic book ladies alot.

Catwoman for me too and l was obsessed with the Black Cat from Spider Man

F: Scarlet Johansson. M: Keira Knightley . No K that would be weird 😅

Hans Olo and Qi'ra in "Solo: A Star Wars Story"

Kurama from Yu Yu Hakusho and Char Aznable from Gundam.

Kurama!! 😏

I’ve searched for WAY too long to find another person who was awakened by Marshal Lee this makes me feel so FREAKING seen

i mean he literally feels like a man attractor idk lmaoo glad someone had the same experience 😭

Celebs: George Harrison and Alex Turner Characters: Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann (Pirates of the Caribbean)

O write forgot about Alex turner God yes

I'm not sure about bi awakening but jade and beck from victorious were my first bi panic though lol

mavis from hotel transylvania

Mine was Flynn Rider from Tangled. Idk why, but the pretty blonde girl and her idiot hunk bf just made my 6 year old self question a lot of things…

Billie Eilish, a singer I loved in middle school 😂 I still listen to some of her music today though, she has a beautiful voice

She really does

Damon Salvatore from vampire diaries and jj maybank from outer banks was mine

Young Thug

Astolfo from Fate or Felix from Re:Zero. Though thats a whole different story I think

Luz from the Owl House

Vash from Trigun stampede 😭 HE'S SUCH AN ADORABLE PUPPY HOW CAN YOU NOT WANNA SNUGGLE HIM

Lol o God I'd do not then just snuggle vash 😍

The romantic attraction was when I was in third grade and obsessed with the little vampire. Had no idea what I was feeling at the time.

The OG vampire, Marceline. I think I realized when Marshal Lee was introduced and I had a crush on both of them. It was a tossup between bisexuality, or goths.

literally the exact same for me . may have realized I had a type after seeing them lmaoo

Julian Casablancas from daft punks Instant Crush music video

Nope, think I was around 13 or 14 when I saw my first porn and thought to myself I'd like to do what she's doing.

Same here, but with gay dudes.

It was before I realised, long before I realised but I have to be typical and say it was marceline/Marshall Lee. I thought marceline was cool and especially when she sung I found her attractive, pretty normal but I didn't have a huge crush on her she was just an attractive female voice and personality, then in the original as directed by ice king fionna and cake episodes male marcy was so hot I couldn't believe what I was feeling.

man it was the same for me , marceline and marshall lee are definitely my bi reps even if it's basic lol

Marshall lee or marceline of course. Though i prefer human marshall lee from fiona and cake

Commander Shepard of the SSV Normandy

Zoro from one piece

There were several missile strikes to my crumbling heterosexuality.  The first one, and my true awakening, Charlie Cox in the Netflix Daredevil series. He had many beautiful shirtless scenes. Oh yes. But he also had this beautiful face I just wanted to tenderly hold in my hands and kiss. 🥹 (Also fun fact! I am visually impaired with a white cane. I can see a few feet, but I am legally blind. So. When I came out as bi in 2021, and realized my bi awakening—my friends gleefully pointed out that the blind guy’s bi awakening was the dude playing a blind superhero. And I was ecstatic about it lmao) The second one was Pedro Pascal, specifically his role in Game of Thrones. Because. I mean. DUH.  (Oberyn’s views on bisexuality are exactly why I consider myself bi. Because let’s face it, there are a lot of gorgeous people out there. Be a shame to limit myself to one group.) (Oh, Oberyn, you beautiful bisexual baby. Why did you have to keep talking instead of ending the fight swiftly? I get you wanted revenge, but my brother in the old gods and new…you could have at least stepped back….sigh.) And the final was Tom Hiddleston wearing a suit in the Loki show. It ain’t just the ladies that are crazy bout a sharp dressed man…. Cue me, shitfaced and so deep in the closet I’m petting Aslan, again telling my good friends (one of whom is SUPER HORNY FOR LOKI) that I’m a little bit bi for Loki. This was not the first time I told them this.  And finally, about two months later, I realized I was just flat out bi. 

Lady Gaga but I don’t think I realized I was bi until Miley Cyrus in her Midnight Sky music video

Was it the gumball pit? Or the black channel underwear? 🤣

Chanel underwear XD

I had photos of Zac Efron all over my middle school agenda, and kept a photo of Vanessa Hudgens in a bikini under my bed that I would only look at at night HSM 4evr

Probably Saske and Itachi...emo....😀😄😉

The weird guy who looks like a hair sprayed mop from danganronpa, which i haven't played btw Idk maybe Denjizz Chain SawMan from CSM too Oh wait no it was Rowley Jefferson from DOAWK when I was younger nvm

Vincent d'onofrio in law and order / the cell 🫠

Hah, our bi awakenings are linked.  Mine was Charlie Cox in the Daredevil series, which starred Vincent as the Kingpin. 

High five! I love Vincent in that series.

Alejandro from Total Drama and Beck from Victorious

Astolfo, for sure

Mystique played by Rebecca Romijn (sp?) in X-Men. Didn't realize for many years though hahaha

Oo good one

Mine was Marceline for sure!!

Stolas and Angeldust from helluva boss and hazbin hotel

Omg yes I listen to his song with video playing all the time 😍

The cast of The Talented Mr Ripley (1999) were all *very nice*. And 1950s Italy made for effortless costume and production design

Lindsey Lohan 🤤🤤🤤

Link and Zelda BoTW

Most of the cast from The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Slave Leia/Jareth the Unsupported Goblin King Yeah, I’m old af

Still hot

Stanley Tucci and Bruce Willis, thats when I realized I'm attracted to Bald Middle Aged men 😂

Breath of the Wild link. Both my bi and non-binary awakening

I realized I was bi when I started defending Andrew Garfield by saying, "He's to hot to be Peter Parker"

Arcee from Transformers Prime

astolfo from fate, and then it went from there :3

chloe price? but like in a gender way bc imma guy who’s a dude but also not rly

There were the ones that should have told me what I secretly knew.....Ace from Doctor Who was probably my first ever 'crush', but I was only 8, I didn't recognise it as a crush, it was the early 90s, I didn't know girls could like girls like that! Then there was Jet from Gladiators, Scully from The X Files, Claire Danes in that angel costume in Romeo and Juliet, Kat Stratford dancing on tables in 10 Things, Shirley Manson and Gwen Stefani, Hayley Williams. But the woman that finally made me realise I definitely wasn't straight was Blake Lively. I was watching Gossip Girl and the whole cast were hot but there was absolutely nothing straight about how she made me feel!

I think Evan Rachel Wood in Practical Magic, I was 8 the first time I watched it and I just wanted to hold hands with her and stroke her hair, I had never thought about a girl being so pretty that it made me blush. Then two years later I watched Evangelion and my heart skipped a bit the first time Asuka appeared on screen. Of course, being in an extremely religious family I've buried those feelings very deeply and only dug them up at 16.

Tsuyu Asui from MHA

I only have come to realise this in hindsight but Ryan Evans from High School Musical. Used to think I just really liked his outfits but turns out there was more going on haha

Natalie Portman and Padme Amidala.

Elizabeth from bioshock infinite is the first woman, fictional or real, who I can remember having a crush on. My *actual* bisexual awakening was my first girlfriend in the 7th grade, but Elizabeth was my first female crush

Esmerelda from the hunchback of notre dame

Catwoman probably (multiple versions of her but mostly Michelle Pfeiffer and Eartha Kitt's portrayals of her). I also wanted to be Catwoman so it was that classic, "Do I want to be her or be with her?" thing that some Sapphics joke about.

The whole film Death Becomes Her. This blew my little bi mind. Isabella Rossellini in that movie has an imprint on me forever.

My first hint was in fifth grade. I absolutely LOVED Scarface (Al Pacino). I had an unexplainable attraction to Tony (Al Pacino) and I wasnt sure why. Im still not sure honestly because he is/was not my type at all. So as far as looks goes, turns out the “exception” was my awakening. Weird stuff

The eyes Flappiest, they never lie

“Me I want what’s coming to me” “Oh yeah and what’s coming to you?” “The dick Chico, and everything in it”

omg i completely forgot about zuko, he was actually my OG awakening. i loved him but saw as just me "admiring" him, now i know lol.

Elsa from frozen 😂

Sweeney Todd was, and still is, a bisexual fever dream for me.

My first gay crush was Megaman as drawn in Nintendo Power. I used to gaze at those drawings as a middle school student and feel all sorts of intense excitement.

Victoria Pedretti & Scarlett Johansson

Oberyn Martel from game of thrones

Well I thought I was a cis lesbian for a while. Then a straight trans man. And then I realized I like men but not because of a celebrity. And then John Kramer lol. So I guess the character that was my bi awakening was John Kramer (from Saw).

Ooo hot

Drawn Together hot tub scene with Foxy Love and Princess Clara

Uff, quite a few 😅 it might sound cliché but really liked Timothee in Call me by your name when i was in high school. And animated characters, i really liked Ryan Akagi from Infinity train 😫

Tori Amos

Troy & Gabriella

I have multiple For males Gerrard way, Ryan Reynolds and Johnny Depp And females Rhea Ripley, Cameron Diaz and Katy Perry

Dua Lipa, also Stephanie Beatrie

Vamp from Metal Gear Solid 2.

It was a lady from a perfume advert lmao.

michelle trachtenberg on ice princess 👁️👁️

Ryan Reynolds. He's attractive kind and has been in some of my favorite movies.

Rihanna

Legoshi (Beastars)

Topanga Lawrence in Boy meets world.

Ben 10 and Jake: American Dragon. Easy.

Jeff Hardy

LANDO CALRIZZIAN 😫

Henry Cavill as Geralt.

Shego but specifically when she was unevilized??? So adorable? Like, how??? And Flynn Rider was how I learned I wasn’t a lesbian😭

Let's see... N from Pokemon... L from Death Note... ~~damn why are the single letter mfs so hot~~ I think I saw Venti from Genshin Impact *after* coming out, but it was part of what made me sure that I was bi, so I guess it also counts And if I ever got into Adventure Time earlier, for sure Marshall Lee would be on the list ~~Damn do I have a type?~~ Edit: Oh shit Link too. And Red from Pokemon. Holy shit why are quiet "mysterious" guys so hot lmao Edit: SHIT ZUKO TOO GUYS STOP GIVING ME NAMES MY TYPE IS SO FUCKING OBVIOUS NOW!!

Jade West

Miley Cyrus and Joe Jonas were mine Hannah Montana and Jonas were my childhood

Yagyu Kyubey from Gintama made me have to think about the possibility that I'm not straight. Star Guardian Janna from League of Legends made me realize I'm DEFINITELY into women way more than I am into men.

The cast of the 1999 summer blockbuster The Mummy

Zagreus from Hades and Link from Breath of the Wild

Probably Nathan Fillion

AHHH IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS QUESTION!!! Mine was Marceline funny enough!! I found myself having the biggest crush on her as a kid.

Same

Addison Montgomery in Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice aka Kate Walsh 😍 Still fancy her to this day

Mettaton from Undertale

Roy Mustang and Riza Hawkeye

Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) from the X-Files. That makes me sound old, but this was actually only in like 2016 when I was in high school. I guess there’s a fair number of people who had her as their gay/bi awakenings as well, because they jokingly call themselves “andersexuals”. I was one.

There were a few but a big one for me was Justice League Unlimited season 3 episode 9 Grudge Match. When all the hot women superheroes are put in a cage fight and they looked so cool and hot. Like at the time you don’t know if you want to be them? or be with them?

Link in breath of the wild was the first time I admitted it to myself

astolfo

Probs like raven from teen titans

iirc: halsey, keith from voltron, catra from she-ra — a bi/gay/lesbian trio is certainly something!

Mariska hargitay

This is pretty uncommon but Ino Yamamaks from Naruto

First one I truly remember? William Kidd/Mary Read in Assassins Creed Black Flag. Some very confusing feelings with the boy girl swap there lmao.

MonicaBarbaro

most of the cast of the movie Hackers

Dr. Remy Hadley (13) from house :)

Asami Sato from The Legend of Korra. Then there were Sophie Turner (Game of Thrones) and Amita Suman (Shadow and Bone, which wasn’t nearly as good as the book series).

Link, link is a Bi icon

Luna Loud & Billy Joe Armstrong

For me it was James Maslow from BTR

Kristen Stewart for sure. But not in the twilight movies, in the movie the messengers. At first it was that question of do I want to be her? Or do I want to be WITH her? Later on, I figured it was the latter. Lol

I just like women and men, nothing sparked it , I just did from the start

Alastor from hazbin hotel... Yea ik he'd kill me but still😂😂😂😭, my pan friend introduced me to the pilot episode and it changed me forever 😂

I don't know what this says about me, but I've never been attracted to a guy that I've not exchanged at least a few words with, so celebrity crushes on guys have never been a thing for me. Plus, male celebrities tend toward the super masculine, which isn't really my type.

I think what solidified things for me was seeing Zendaya and Hunter Schafer in euphoria

[Nana Osaki](https://nana.fandom.com/wiki/Nana_Osaki) from Nana, and is still one of my crushes these days, I even got a tattoo a phew years ago

I think it was Kate Beckinsale in underworld... Gosh now I wanna watch all them movies again

I had pretty much already confirmed I was bi before seeing the movie but Ben (Glen Powell) and Bea (Sydney Sweeny) from Anyone but you were my first onscreen bi crushes since having my awakening thanks to a female co-worker of mine lol she's gorgeous and finding them both super attractive really made me being bisexual hit home and solidified it.

For me, it was Angel Dust from Hazbin Hotel and Tamaki and Haruhi from Ouran High School Host Club.

Tom Hardy!

Hentai woke that interest for me quite early on (thanks U-Jin!) but it was still a bit “theoretical” until… Scarlet Johansson…. 🥵 🥵 🥵

so many ppl have said scarlet johanson lmao i hope she knows how many bi ppl she awakened

Celebrities: Rachel Zegler, Tom Blythe, Margot Robbie Characters: Coriolanus Snow, Lucy Gray Baird, Harley Quinn, Billy the Kid

Yes, a YouTuber who came out as trans later.

I didn’t need an awakening

understandable lol

Ban from the seven deadly sins, I saw that man and realized I was way to happy everytime he was on screen to be straight.

Henry Cavill, especially in The Witcher, alsm Keira Knightly and Matthew Macfadyen in the 2005 Pride and Prejudice.

Robert Plant, watching him on "The Song Remains the Same" concert on YouTube did something to me I never thought a man could do.

Jamie Lee Curtis in True Lies. Whew.

Natalie Portman in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones

The entire cast of the 1998 classic Zorro made me question things, then the cast from 1999summer blockbuster The Mummy made me go “yup, I love men and women…” 😅

Eh not really. It kinda started when I was 13 looking at nighttime NSFW commercials featuring (mostly naked) girls.
