Alison Batchelor

My name is Alison but I go by Ali usually. I’m in a huge transitional point in my life. I’m almost 22 years of age. I hula hoop dance and hoop FIRE! I’ve been through a lot but have overcame all. I do believe in God and that he loves all of his children. I believe in equality and there is a war on human rights. I love music so much and I sing. I love music festivals and concerts. I enjoy writing and occasionally reading. I find it immensely difficult to concentrate in school and things of that nature. I’m hyper usually a lot. My heart is good. I love meditation. I love expressing myself through social networking and clothing..though I don’t consider myself shallow. There are things I’ve yet to accomplish but I’m well on my way to achieving my goals. I love world fashions and various cultures. I love taking pictures, hiking, zip lining, nature, and art.

I’ve fully explored my orientation. I knew at a very young age that I loved boys but I also loved girls. My adolescence was semi confusing because I had people telling me that it was “not natural” or accepted in the eyes of God. I struggled as a teen and went through a lot. I never felt like I was fully accepted and that hurt so I put on a face. As I got older I realized that it is VERY much possible to enjoy both sexes.

Bisexuals aren’t crazy orientation confused nympho maniacs. It is not a choice but more or less a feeling that is instinctual to act on and possibly pursue in a mature point in life..SHIT even exploring at a younger point is helpful. Bisexuality doesn’t define us. Shit orientation doesn’t define us..to me it is not identity it is real life stuff.

I simply noticed/gauged the intensity of my attraction to the same sex and then explored that attraction to not only females but males as well. I usually always had a boyfriend. I still do but the strong sexual desire to love and make love to a woman is there.

Probably the ridicule from people that don’t understand or assume you’re going through some type of faze. The judgement/ignorance of others..totally annoying.

The best thing about being bisexual is that you fall for the person and connect with the person on a deeper level if you choose to pursue a relationship with same sex or opposite sex. It’s exciting.

Growing up..not so positively. Now..my mother knows and she is seeing me as a person and not a freak. I don’t really speak about it to my family but to my friends I do.
