For bisexual and gays....do any of you find it extremely frustrating to be attracted to perfectly straight guys/girls? It's extremely disheartening to me.... I'm sure someone can relate with me on this...
of course... im not ur typical metro gay guy, and I hang out with guys like me. So naturally I am attracted to guys similiar to me, who aren't gay. It sucks, but it is life. I am sure i will find someone sooner or later.
Think that gets your goat? Try being an omnisexual transsexual and viewing sexual orientation as being flopped in refferance to your biological sex, and being attracted to men who are heterosexual. I would view such a relationship as heterosexual... so, yeah; I get rather frustrated.
I'm sure its frustrating for straight people who are attracted to gay people too... everybody can relate to this.
Yep, it's frustrating. I find that as I hang around more and more with other gay people, it's less of an issue. When there are plenty of gay men to crush on, you are at least a little less likely to be frustrated.
Thats why people should rid themselves of the sexual boundaries society sets. Do you think some people just really are straight or are only that way because they think they are because thats how the greater population of society influences them?
I'm sure some people are perfectly straight with a bisexual tendency every now and then...it's only natural, right? I'd like to think most aren't too brainwashed by society to let it affect their sexuality, though. there is a fine line between toleration and an open mind...that's what gets to me the most. (and some don't even tolerate us at all). but that's just the way i am. i've never truly been attracted to a girl, i just was playing games with myself. why more people can't grasp tolerance, i have no fucking clue.
I find it annoying how the mainstream gay culture fetishizes (sp?) straight men, and makes fetishes out of traditionally homophobic trades (police officers, military, etc). It's also crap how they want to get fucked by someone who is blue collar, but at the same time they look down on them as people (personal experience on this one). Bleah; luckily as a now-straight-leaning bi male, it's mostly not my problem. [edit] Of course, think about wether you're turned on by the individual, turned on by their unavailability or if you're simply turned off by mainstream gays/mainstrem gay mannerisms. If it's the last one, at least you have some hope you'll find and hook up with other "straight acting" guys who share your tastes. If it's a matter of an indvidual crush, that's really hard )
That's a good point. One thing I don't like about the mainstream gay culture is the culture itself. I don't see a need for an alterative scene out there...it's just a sexual preference in my eyes. Yeah, I can definately see that...it's sad... Heehee... I think it's a combination of the underlined...but mainly I just don't connect with the mainstream gay culture at all. Unavailibility is a turn on for some occasions...it all depends.
Being turned on by someone's unavailability is fine as long as you're aware of it and keep on top of it; it's part of human nature.
I am with reid on this one. I don't really connect with the "gay scene", and It isn't really something I want to connect with. I believe there are plenty of guys like me, who aren't into this, and don't let their sexuality define who they are.
