I know you said to save the academics; but we aren’t fucking right now.

That little shot of norepinephrine? The one you can tell from how you’re feeling a bit warmer and your eyes are a bit watery? You might feel it as a little niggle in your stomach from the inhibition of digestion.

That’s a limbic response. It’s your body preparing you to take action. Over the years, your amygdala has trained you to associate the sexuality of others with fear.

You might have been in a classroom as a kid, in the closet, and heard someone making a gay joke. You would have felt your vision narrow, your hearing become amplified. You were afraid. And your brain told you to remember that.

Or maybe someone was teasing you. Just a kid being cruel. They didn’t know you were gay. But you did. And you felt like you would be in danger if they did. And your brain did a mean trick. It made you shake.

That happened because the andrenergic receptors in your cells were bathed and your limbic system was reflexively preparing you to flee the scene.

But your brain inhibited that. A pretty admirable characteristic. You’re a fighter. All those chemicals couldn’t make you run. But your brain couldn’t just do nothing.

So it used the first line of defense: you called them a name. See, you know that people who are humiliated are harmless; because you had been in those shoes many times before. And it might’ve worked. It didn’t. But you pretended it did.

Your brain remembered that. All those years later. You don’t feel safe when you talk about sexuality. That’s insecurity.

I might be wildly off the mark; but that’s my take on your responses.

Some things to remember: no one is trying to steal your identity. No one is making fun of you. And what you believe is one perspective in a whole universe of differing perspectives.

This is more word salad, you sound like an AI/Transhumanist enthusiast. I would say I don't feel safe when surrounded by people who intentionally distort the meaning of the word gay. I don't feel safe when I'm surrounded by liars, grifters, and agendists who want to terraform the gay community into a bisexual/queer one. It's offensive and belittling. You underestimate the aide and comfort you give to the enemies of gay people. Now that so-called gays are trying to build the consensus that we choose our gay sexuality how long will it take before fluidity becomes weaponized against gay men. Or has it already begun? There is enemy within and the enemy without. Your ultimate goal is erosion and erasure.

A few drag queens from RuPaul's dragrace discussed having sex with women after being out as a gay man. Mainly Kameron Michael's.
If you have sex with women and you claim to be “gay” if you enjoy it your bi or bi curious just because they couldn’t be with a woman romantically doesn’t mean they can’t be bi

I never had sex with a woman, before or after coming out.

Lately I've been interested in it, though. Like, genuine curiosity of how sex with a woman would be like.

Don't think I'd go through if given the chance. The pressure to perform would be a dick killer for me (I'm a terrible top)

Is this a trend? This "curiosity" thing? If you're gay why even worry about it? The "Lately, I've been curious" is just so odd to me. Women have always been around so why is it "lately, I'm curious but I'm gay." Is it a gay to bi conversion thing?
Well... Why not?
It is a genuine curiosity and probably has nothing to do with "turning bisexual" (a bad choice of term, as it implies you can "turn" to a different sexual orientation on the spot)...

Of course they do! Personally I didn’t, but because of social norms and pressure from others, some queer people try to conform and deny their sexuality to fit in and force themselves to have what they see as ‘normal’ sexual experiences before they ultimately realise who they actually are. Labels are so terrible and effects so many people terribly
