Fictional Characters That Gave Fans A Sexual Awakening

“I’m bi, and I can’t remember which male fictional character was my sexual awakening, but the character that made me realize I was bi was Mystique in the original X-Men movies — specifically Rebecca Romijn’s Mystique. I was 13 when the first X-Men movie was released, and he was watching it on TV, and he pointed out Mystique and said that she was hot. I agreed. I think I knew I wasn’t completely straight after seeing her. Ironically enough, in the comics, Mystique is canonically bi herself.” —mariellea
