I don’t yearn to give up on female friendships. Am I doing something wrong by being myself?

Flip-flop
Flip-flop is an expression of gay slang indicating that a person is fluid or versatile in their sexual relationships, as people commonly use it to describe a radical convert, a 180-degree change, or a change of heart. This could indicate the misunderstanding that the bi-curious community suffers within the gay community. Flip-flop has another meaning, also from gay slang, to relate to the exchange of top and bottom roles in gay intercourse, as you can see if you look for this expression on any porn website.
