lol @ nik .. Are you sure you are not petrified? you told me before you were...lol anyway my 2 cents of thought in here
I’ve long suspected that bisexuality, in many men, is the stage between shame and acceptance. That is, men who call themselves “bisexual” are often gay men who aren’t quite ashamed anymore of their homosexual inclination but who, for any number of reasons, also aren’t fully accepting of it. By calling themselves bisexual, they cling to some thin reed of their heterosexual identity.
I remember a study conducted back in the 90s to a group of men - a memorable headline resulted of the
New York Times which sparked the world, the “bisexual” men in the study were either “Straight, Gay, or Lying.”
Clearly there are straight men who occasionally have gay sex when circumstances limit their preferred sexual outlet, as in prison. Clearly there are gay men, some of whom are married to women, who have straight sex because they’re ashamed of their homosexual orientation or afraid of the consequences of being found out. These are not bisexuals.
Clearly, for queer theorists and their allied political groups, there is an ideological motivation behind the idea of bisexuality. They will defend it, damn the truth. And for some men, having sex with men who claim to be attracted to women is a fetish.
Clearly there are men who call themselves bisexual, whether for political reasons or fetishistic reasons or because they simply aren’t yet able to accept that they’re gay.
We may not like that the world is divided into sheep and goats, but that’s preferable to pretending we live in a world of mythical unicorns.
The question regarding % Gay vs. % Straight when making my profile brought to mind a question.. How gay can you be before you're bi? I went for 1% Gay 99% Straight because, I love pussy, but i'm not afraid of penis although they do not turn me on... So those guys out there who are totally petrified of penis. you go be 100% straight, no problem. But for the others of you who claim other amounts out there, what's the verdict?..
