Bi-curious is a term for someone who generally identifies as heterosexual but feels or shows some interest in having a relationship with someone of the same sex. The term is also occasionally applied to a person who generally identifies as homosexual but feels or shows some interest in having a relationship with someone of the opposite sex—such persons may use the term homoflexible. The term implies that the individual has had no sexual experience—or very little—of that sort, but a person may continue to self-identify as bi-curious if they do not feel they have adequately explored these feelings, or if they do not consider their feelings to "qualify" as truly bisexual.
This is a social label.
