Question: 1 / 400

A person whose sexual desires are directed towards both men and women is known as?

Homosexual

Bisexual

The correct term for a person whose sexual desires are directed towards both men and women is "bisexual." This designation reflects an attraction to more than one gender, specifically in this context, both male and female individuals. Bisexuality encompasses a range of experiences and can include varying degrees of attraction to different genders.

The distinction between bisexuality and other sexual orientations, such as heterosexuality (attraction to the opposite gender) and homosexuality (attraction to the same gender), is important in understanding the spectrum of human sexuality. Other terms like "pansexual" describe attraction to individuals regardless of gender, suggesting an openness to all gender identities, while "asexual" refers to a lack of sexual attraction to others altogether. Thus, "bisexual" appropriately identifies the described orientation of attraction towards both genders.
