Introduction
Is it legal? Like so many other questions, the answer is …it depends!
As a sexual fetish, forced bi can certainly be enjoyed within the bounds of the law — in many places. However, there are many ancillary considerations and many accompanying things (like drug use) that may very well be illegal. So, take care, and know the laws in your country and locality. For other things to think about, read on.
I know: saying that “it depends” is bloody frustrating, isn’t it? But, hang with me. When thinking through the legal issues, it is helpful to break things up into chunks.
I will deal with things like the following.
- Definition of “forced bi”
- Community moral standards (“decency,” etc.)
- Recreational drugs (poppers, etc.)
- Prostitution

First, I need to begin with the requisite caveats and provisos. I’m not an advocate, attorney, barrister, solicitor, or lawyer of any sort. I can’t give legal advice and nothing that I write is intended to be any. In fact, I’m not writing to give any kind of advice whatsoever.

The Issues
Definition: ‘Forced Bi’
Partially, it depends on what you mean by “forced bi.” How much “force” are you talking about, for instance?
Of course, in the context of the BDSM world of fetish, I have to emphasize that what is in view is — to invoke a popular saying — always “Safe, Sane, and Consensual.”
Thus, “forced” does not mean literally compelled, through force, threats or other means, to preform actions that are contrary to a person’s will. This sort of thing would verge on assault or rape, and it would certainly be illegal.
This, the name notwithstanding, is not what forced bi is about. Participants have to be willing.
But if forced bi isn’t contrary to a person’s will, then in what sense it it “forced”?
Basically, the idea is that a person (usually a male) is impelled against his desire to engage in homosexual encounters.
Predictably, though, it is still more complex than this. There are probably other desires at play. For instance, the submissive male may have desires to keep his homosexual desires secret or suppressed. Etc. Thus, even though he may act against particular desires (like desires to only engage in hetero sex), he may nevertheless act in accordance with other desires (like the desire to please his Mistress).
It’s even trickier, however. Some Mistresses hold the position that any male who would possibly be interested in male-on-male sex is at least latently homosexual. On this view, the male arguably isn’t even forced against his desires.
Other Mistresses disagree that the submissive acts against any desires at all — even desires having to do with opposite- or same-sex encounters. A contrary view has it that antecedently straight males can be encouraged to have gay sex. Some Mistresses taking this position maintain that straight males can actually be “turned” or transformed into homosexuals. (If you’re curious about this angle, check out the related post “Does the Forced-Bi Fetish Have Roots in Mythology?”
Mistresses are in disagreement over what actually “goes on” in the forced-bi fetish. For more details on the nature and contours of this disagreement, I refer you back to the earlier post “What Is ‘Forced Bi’?”
Community Moral Standards
A second issue is that of “community moral standards” of morality or decency. This turns, roughly, on what those in your “area” (whether city, state, country, etc.) believe to be acceptable conduct.
In some localities, you can be found guilty of transversing local standards, or mores, if you engage in activities that the “majority” of locals would disapprove of.
When in doubt, and as embarrassing as it may be, you can call court clerks or police departments to get answers. There is an adage that has it: Asking forgiveness is easier than asking permission. But, in this case, a little embarrassment is probably more favorable than fines or jail time.
Is forced bi against the local standards? It depends on your area! It could well be the case that this fetish runs afoul of local standards. It therefore bears repeating: Know the relevant laws where you live.
Recreational Drugs
A third potential legal pitfall has to do with drugs. Mainly, this has to do with “recreational” drug use. Here, I have in mind things like amyl-nitrite inhalers, otherwise known as “poppers.” I’ll write more on these in another place.
But, suffice it to say, here, that poppers are illegal to buy and use in many jurisdictions.
The tie-in is that sometimes people employ poppers in forced-bi scenarios. They supposedly function to loosen a person up — including the person, um… sphincter muscles. Wink, wink.
So, the point is that even though “forced bi,” per se, may not be illegal; it may be illegal to acquire or use poppers.
Some people (ahem: Peter Duesberg) think that poppers may suppress the immune system and be a precipitating cause of AIDS. But, whatever, take ’em, you dirty fag! I mean… as long as their use is legal in your area — which it may not be.
Of course, poppers are not the only types of drugs that people sometimes use recreationally. There are numerous drugs — from “party drugs” like cocaine and ecstasy to more “hardcore” substances like heroine and meth — that are almost illegal virtually everywhere. Other drugs, predominately marijuana, have been illegal in the past but are now legal (or semi-legal) in some areas. AGAIN: Know your local laws!
Finally, there are prescription drugs that may be legal for specific patients, but that can also be illegal (when they are abused or shared).
Prositution
A fourth issue in the vicinity is, believe it or not, prostitution.
This is because, in some places, “prostitution” applies to a myriad of sexual scenarios — especially where money changes hands. So, suppose that you pay a Mistress to “preside over” two men having sex. This is sometimes counted as an act of “prostitution.” It depends on the jurisdiction. Again, know the law in your area!
Concluding Comments
For many people — men and women alike — forced bi is simply a fantasy. These people may enjoy chatting about it or watching pornographic videos depicting it, but they would never really engage in it.
For others, though, forced bi is something that they would consider trying in real life.
If you find yourself in the latter category, consider the following.
Things to Think About Before Trying Forced Bi
- Is the scenario that you envision legal in your area? Know your local laws!
- Is your chosen Mistress reputable? Check for references. No kidding.
- Is the environment clean and drug free? You may wish to visit any “playrooms” or “dungeons” in advance of booking “sessions.”
- Is the other participant (forced bi usually involves two males and a Mistress) drug and disease free? You may want to meet beforehand and inspect current drug-test results.
Play at your own risk!
