Do you lose interest in someone if you find out they are straight?

Honestly, most of the time I do. Straight guys are obviously straight (I'm not including "straight" guys here) so obviously nothing is gonna happen, not to mention the personal hygiene many have is nothing but a boner killer.

Straight women are hard nut to crack, they tend to be very accepting and progressive but also extremely entitled and aren't subtle at all about their biphobia.

I definitely lose interest IRL if a know a guy is straight. I will acknowledge if a guy is cute or attractive but I just move on with my day.

Rarely come across openly Bisexual girls on my region. I've always dealt with straight girls.

Idk. Sexuality is a spectrum. Nothing is set in stone. I'd give them the benefit of doubt if they've expressed some sort of interest (with underlying sexual connotations).

If I'm the one pursuing one, which I usually don't, then yeah, probably a turn off. It just depends.

The abject disappointment that a guy might be straight (and stinky to boot) is revealing but the characterization of straight women as "extremely entitled" and biphobic is stunningly misogynistic. Just because neither the former nor the latter is interested in you sexually doesn't mean they stink or fear you.

Succinct and accurate. Now, tee up all the responses to the contrary of gay men claiming they turned straight guys.
What concerns me is the predatory nature of gay men who think they can turn straight guys. The fact is that if you try to turn someone you are actively violating their boundaries. For me that is so sinister.

You make a valid point on which many would agree. Men, by nature, are predatory no matter how they identify sexually and that nature manifests itself positively and negatively.

I disagree. I think some men are predatory and its quite insulting to say men in general are (not your intention I'm sure). We don't all think w our dicks and its a really stereotypical view based on the loudest types of people.

It takes a certain amount of arrogance and, dare I say it, narcissism to assume one can turn another person's sexuality. I mean how self absorbed does one need to be to think that highly of oneself?

It seems to me that the question is framed in a limited sexual context. Some of my closest male friends are definitely straight, and I respect that. I'm not going to dump them because they don't want to fuck

I stand by my statement. The statement is fair as a general statement and it is tedious to constantly qualify such statements as "general" when a reasonably intelligent person understands it as such. It is similarly tedious to feel compelled to point out something banal like "well, there are always exceptions." So, it was indeed my intention to make a general statement, no matter you, or someone else, might be offended.

That said, I did not say we "all think w (sic) our dicks..." You are inferring something from my general statement for reasons only you can know. You would be better advised to ask a question for clarification rather than being overly-reactive and jumping to an erroneous conclusion. All that said, I agree it is narcissistic to believe one can turn another person's sexuality. I'll go a step further, I believe it is delusional and I don't feel the need to qualify that as a general statement; rather, I declare it an absolute statement.

Responses such as "calm down" or "chill" or "relax" are the new equivalent of conceding the point by those suffering from an overblown ego that cannot simply accept being justly corrected.
:)

It was more that you didn't provide much of a point to counter tbh.

You sound awfully hostile. Maybe this is a you problem.

Anyway take care. Pls don't respond. I'm bored.
