Have You Ever Been Attracted to the Same Sex?

(NSFW story time)
I once hooked up with a guy who identified as straight and he absolutely refused to kiss me. He had no problem whipping out his dick and asking me to go to town, but he couldn't even look at me. In fact, he literally looked in any direction other than where I was. It was so fascinating seeing this guy who wanted to explore his sexual orientation yet he clearly held a lot of homophobic ideas that he literally brought to the bedroom.

This encounter reads like it would leave a scar tbh.How did you cope it with it ? Or did it just not matter ?
 
If gay-straight sexuality is on a spectrum, I'm pretty much all the way on the straight end. I have a hard time even telling if another guy is attractive or not.

The only case where I've been attracted to a guy is when I've been tricked into it, like in those Thailand ladyboy beauty contests where some of them legitimately look like pretty women (I remember there was a GAF thread about it).

Very impressive. So I guess my answer to OP's question is technically a "yes."
 
not sexually or romantically, no

I freely admit when a man is good looking. Like that double gold German olympian Brendel or something, that's one hell of a human male breed
 
I'm gay
∴ yes.

I'm marginally attracted to women, like in a 'last person on Earth' sort of situation I could see myself having a relatively fulfilling romantic and sexual relationship with a woman. Like I can appreciate that we're all just people, that seems like the one part of the equation you can't really get away from, so even though I identify as gay, I think there's still some room for flexibility given how complex people and relationships are and that we're not just having sex with statues/visual objects without an interior.

Yeah, I've been attracted to the same sex a lot of different times. Turns out I'm homosexual, lol.

In keeping with the spirit of the thread, I've been attracted to women. Not so much physically like I am with dudes, but sometimes very strong romantic attractions. Kind of hard to describe. I'm not one of those guys who's physically repelled by women or anything. Who knows, I could find myself in a straight relationship one day, with a girl who's fine with my whole deal.

It's funny and unfortunate how so many guys get all worked up about the idea of messing with other guys. Maybe because I'm gay and straight is the norm, I don't feel inhibited by potential social consequences for "trying" straight stuff. That, and I don't see anything gross about getting involved with a reasonably attractive person of any sex. Making out and sex are just fun things to do, and I'm up for anything within reason.

It's the person and situation that make ordinary activities special. Eating Burger King in your car with a person you love can become a beautiful memory, no matter how often you chow on fast food with others. Same thing with physical intimacy, as far as I'm concerned.

I loved how you expressed this, and it's so true.


Also, people saying the male body is gross: dude, plz. There's nothing that displays more power and epic than the male body, and it's the perfect contrast to the beautiful female features. You can just learn to love them both for what they are, what they represent.
 
Hey you guys, this is the same person.

Sometimes it's not as simple as "No thanks, not my style, never been attracted to a dude/dudette."

Thanks.
 
no. I am a straight man and I can see there are many handsome men but they don't attract me at all. the female form is just too beautiful for ME (emphasis on me) to consider anything else.
 
I think complete, 100% heterosexuality is a rarity.

I've definitely been attracted to the opposite sex, and I'd imagine the majority of my friends could say the same if they were honest too. It doesn't have to extend to anything beyond the infrequent sexual thought, but the important thing is that it occurs, regardless of their 'heterosexuality'.

I dunno, I'm biased, but the above makes sense to me. It's difficult to comment on these things sometimes because sexuality becomes difficult to define for some. Am I making sense?
 
So far, no.

I don't personally find guys attractive, although I know what an attractive guy looks like.

I'm just really attracted to women and their curves. I think there was a thread about this guy who dresses up like Disney Princesses, and he looked really hot, but that was because he looked like a woman. Does that count? I don't know.

EDIT: I also find transvestites really attractive. Is "transvestite" the right word? I don't want to be rude/insensitive. Like the photo up above. I think she looks super hot.
 
I have multiple times. I always fall in love with guys that are closest to me. Those that I talk to and hang out with everyday. Too bad most of them have been straight. :-(
 
That's kind of my whole deal. Though, I had a crush on a girl in high school. Didn't go so well, so I just let it go.

What the... so confused right now
 
I'm straight as an arrow, but I'm open to the idea of a MFM threesome. I'd be open to hooking up with a trans woman, if that counts.
 
I think I would legit be uncomfortable if I had to sit next to either Idris Elba, or Shemar Moore.

Other than that? I can't recall a time when I've ever crushed on another guy.

Oh, and...

... is cheating. That looks like a woman.

This sex and gender thing is so confusing.

So! If I see a chick that I think is beautiful, and she identifies as a man, but is sexually female, am I attracted to the same sex?
 
I've seen other guys that i think look handsome, but i've never seen a dick and then wanted to do something to/with it.

So attracted to guys, not attracted to dicks i guess? Not sure what i would say if another guy offered to blow me. Never had the offer.
 
I remember when I was in boarding school and about 13, there was a rumour that two guys were sneaking off to the showers to fool around late at night. I found myself thinking about what 'fooling around' could possibly mean, and started to visualise them taking off each other's clothes.

All parts of my brain immediately started screaming 'NO NO NO' and that feeling in the pit of your stomach where you're starting to get aroused, and the blood's up? I felt the literal inversion of that. I thought to myself 'Well, at least I know I'll never have the problem of being gay' and have never really thought about it since.

No. Never attracted to guys. No vagina, no attraction.
 
Sexually attracted, no.

However, that doesn't mean I'm not going to say another guy is attractive, I'm just not going to sleep with him.

Oh yeah, I felt that way too for a while. Not especially helpful when you turn out to be gay, haha. Needless to say, that kind of extreme reaction occurs when your sense of what's normal is outraged. The thing to realize is that your sense of what's normal is a result of the attitudes you learn from the people around you. And other environmental influences like media, I suppose.

It's possible and, I hope you'd agree, healthy to unlearn misguided revulsion. I did it by reading and watching gay and trans people talk about themselves. Eventually you'll find that you relate to them as people. People who feel as deeply and think as clearly as you do, and have good reasons for being who they are. We're all just people with fundamentally similar thoughts and feelings and basic motivations. The surface stuff—whether it's looking weird, acting unusual, enjoying things that are strange or even repelling to you—doesn't really matter. Just look for the common humanity.

So a biological female person, who identifies as a man (even preferring masculine pronouns) would more than likely dress like a man.

If you are attracted to him (not her if that's what he prefers to be called) then you would be gender fluid. You'd like someone who is a man, so maybe a bit gay. :p

However, there's more than being "gay" and "straight."


Edit: And I think that the person in the picture would identify as a woman.
 
I try to be, because i know it's fluid and a symptom of the culture that males must be secure in their own straightness, unlike women. Gay panic and shitheaded masculinity and all. But thoughts of gay sex still aren't appealing to me. Like, I think I maybe might do it-- if the guy turned me on, which three or four guys have in passing, out of like thousands of guys. No guarantee that specific guy'd be down.

^^ Not even sure about dudes who look like typical women. That's a whole can of worms I haven't even dipped my toe in
sorry for that image
.
 
I can recognize when other men are hot, but I'm so turned off by dicks that I've never had a homosexual fantasy. Sometimes I wish I was bisexual though, it would be cool to increase my dating prospects.

If I weren't married it would 3000% depend on the guy. I'm not even that attracted to blonde and red-haired women; I feel like if I had a gay experience my "type" restrictions would be amplified by a factor of a jillion for me to enjoy it.
 
Like, I think if it was a dude who looked like a woman I'd be a lot less turned on then if it was a guy who looked like a guy and I just found him attractive. I wouldn't be trying to fool myself.
 
No. I've found some women gorgeous and been envious of their gorgeousness (like Monica Bellucci or Morena Baccarin), but in a totally non-sexual way, the same way I'd find a painting or scenery gorgeous. The idea of having sex with a woman is a huge turn-off.
 
Never attracted or sexually aroused, but I am able to acknowledge when I see a good looking guy. Sometimes I'll see someone and think, that man is a total stud. Wow. But without any interest in handling said stud.
