At first read, I thought the dad was confessing to cheating on OP's mum with dudes but now my question is...then what did the dad think it was?

"Bisexual" isn't really a new term. And for someone who has been fucking around, you think they would've run into the term sooner.

Some people are really detached from the culture they live in.

Or it could be made up. Who knows?

But I can definitely attest to some older folk not knowing what 'bisexual' means, especially in a rural or semirural area.

I remember during the AIDS crisis health workers starteed to use the phrase "Men who have Sex with Men" in their education outreach partly because a significant number of these men did not self-identify as gay or bi.

As someone who is deep into cruising culture, very many “straight” men sleep with dudes. They’d never be in a relationship with another guy, but they don’t care who sucks their dick.
