I might be bisexual. Is there anything wrong with that?

This letter reads:

Dear Dr. Powell,

Please answer my letter in the newspaper. I am a 17 year old girl. Can a girl lose sensation in her clitoris by rubbing it too much during masturbation? Also, I am physically attracted to both boys and girls. Does this mean I’m a bisexual? Is there anything wrong with being one? I can’t ask anyone else these questions. I’ll be looking for your answer. Thank you very much.
