Haha. My wife doesn't care one way or another when it comes to me. Her rear, however, is off limits

Boyfriend's best friend is bi, and I know that they'd run away together if only J weren't so damn straight!
Boyfriend has the "Batman" rule. If he's someone absolutely awesome, like Dave Grohl, and he also happens to be Batman, then maybe he'd try it. Otherwise, straight straight straight.

No past man-on-man experience and no plan to have any. I have no problem seeing a man as handsome, some even pretty, but I don't see them as sexually attractive at all. I quite often don't even see why women find the men they like attractive. I wonder why they find one man that I think should be attractive as unattractive and vice versa.
I have also been propositioned before on occasion, and earlier in life I was offended, but lately I appreciate that anyone finds me attractive. Hey, just because I don't want to go to the party, doesn't mean it's not nice to be asked.

I don't get it.... Men are super attractive. Don't you men ever stare at yourself in the mirror, thinking "Damn, I look fine! Strong, sexy, overpowering!" There has to be some self-love in there, otherwise all men everywhere would be crippled by serious body image issues. No?

The closest I've ever come was having a friend in Junior High school, and once, after smoking a lot of pot together, we both masturbated, in front of each other, at the same time, while looking at porn. It didn't do anything for me, over and above masturbating and looking at porn....
The summer after my first year of college, I had a job working at a shop on the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica, and I learned that many gay blond surfer types find hairy, heavy Jewish guys very attractive. I got hit on more that summer than in the whole rest of my life, combined, and all from tall, muscular blond guys. It really was kind of a shame I'm not gay, or I would've been in heaven. But I'm not, and while I politely turned down every guy with an explanation that I was flattered, but straight, it did get to the point of being so comically exasperating that one of the last guys to try picking me up, I said, "Listen, man...I really appreciate it. Don't think I'm not flattered. But you see that redheaded girl there, in the skirt? Could you possibly point out to her whatever it is that you see in me?" I had a mess of gay friends in college who really tried to convince me I should try it. They pointed out that I have a lot of traditionally gay attributes-- I like musical theater and opera, I have my metrosexual moments regarding clothes, I enjoy a little gossip-- although I say my personality is more lesbian than gay-- I love Indigo Girls and Sarah MacLachlan, and I was crazy about X-Files (huge amongst Santa Cruz lesbians when I was at school). I really tried to fantasize about dudes, but it just didn't take. I mean, I can recognize when a man is attractive, and I have congratulated my gay buddies when they score a hot dude-- much to their amusement. But I recognize it as an abstract, like recognizing the cut of someone's clothes, or the quality of a piece of art. Not like with a hot girl, where if I even think about her too loudly I'm like to sprout wood. Frankly, it's been kind of inconvenient that I'm not gay or at least bi-- I would've gotten way more laid if I were. But I just don't crave dudes. The idea of man sex doesn't repulse me, it just doesn't turn me on. It leaves me cold, neutral. I'm totally stoked for my gay friends who enjoy it, and I sure don't see anything wrong with it. I simply have no desire for it.

levite: I'm much the same way. Even down to identifying more with lesbian than gay culture.

X Files is gay? I admit David Duchovny has smoldering charm, made all the more interesting by his freakiness, but I watched for the Gillians.

So were the lesbians, which is who he said were watching it ;P Either way, it's also the first time I've heard of The X-Files being particularly tied to gay or lesbian culture.

I have come to the opposite conclusion. It seems like its one of those issues like prostitution or dating outside of your race; some people are less open-minded than they think or claim.

I'm another one in the nope, never tried it, never will camp. Doesn't do anything for me.
Women trying it out being ok might be double standard, but it makes sense to me. (plus women are hot) I'm sure some of it is cultural, but it makes sense from an evolutionary standpoint too. For most of ancient history, polygamy wasn't unusual. Men were killed fighting or hunting, and the more powerful men collected more wives. With a slanted gender ratio over many generations, maybe women became less picky? Just my completely unresearched theory. |
