Can ones sexuality really be described in a % form and when does that label include or exclude ppl.

Ive recently noticed comments on threads that have more judgment about the previous post sexual pref % then topic. " So your 100% ____ " which means ?? an example http://www.lpsg.com/339125-gloryhole-experience.html#post4591217

My sexual interest changes all the time> sometimes Im exclusively turned on by MF/M and other times exclusively male. My label if I had to, is that Im very sexual and into ppl that are intouch with their sexuality, straight bi curious or gay. or as I sometimes hear from partners, "Im just sexual" - Yay!

I think when most people use the "% gay/straight" to label sexuality, they are referring to the level to which they are attracted to the same/opposite sex. It doesn't refer to more specific sexualization, though. For instance, I am 100% gay in that all my sexual interests focus on men. That is not to say that all male sexual situations turn me on. I can think of many things I'd never do with a guy (and a few I wouldn't do again). If you can be turned on by both men and women, or various coupling situations, it is probably difficult and useless to put a number on it. If you are a dude and dream of being with 1 guy and 2 girls simultaneously, I wouldn't necessarily think you are 2/3 straight.

I can kiss a muscle dude, but find gay sex boring for the most part.

I am the opposite of a lot of "curious" dudes: I get off on the kissing of dudes more than the actual sex (gay sex is boring to me; prefer straight or lesbian). Most of the "curious" ones find the kissing a major turn-off.

Perhaps, the kissing is even more taboo, and that's why I am turned on by it.

My percentages: Don't have any, although in my mind, I'm usually thinking of straight sex, or even lesbian sex. Gay porn is not something I usually watch, but once in a while, I'll watch a hot muscle fuck - but it's the kissing between attractive males that initially gets my juices flowing. The actual sex between the dudes - mostly boring leaving me with a limp dick.

Well said! I agree 100% with you.

Sexuality is abstract, it isn't 1-100. There are different ways to be into certain things, and plus it's always changing like you said. We're sexual beings, and anything more specific than that is just a guideline.

I am one hundred percent gay, but only find straight men attractive. Ironically I consider myself heterosexual since I view str8 men as the opposite gender from mine.

I realise theres no real definitions by which everyone fits, even for the sake of social interactions. So less bashing and more pashing.

ps Michael, i also only kiss and have sex (penetration) when im in a relationship of sorts, otherwise Im more into oral and light play ;p. Interesting your perception of intimacy.

What if they aren't "obvious" straights ? Or "out" ?

:wink:

I think the percentages are just a lighthearted simplification.

It would take up too much space to try to include the Schroedinger wave equation :wink:

If anything I find it annoying how judgmental and bitchy people are on this site about the percentages people post. It seems like every single thread there is someone saying "Oh you are 95 percent straight/gay but you like this or attracted to this". Seems like it has gotten worse here lately!

I'm the opposite of you in terms of sexuality. I have a relatively low sex drive, and it takes a lot to get me to the point that I'm interested in being physical with someone. But, I am exactly like you in terms of my percentages changing on a minute by minute basis, which is why I removed the percentages from my profile.

...and that is one reason why I don't post in the "Ask a <label>" forum. We are all way too focused on labelling each other, and sexuality is a stupid thing to categorize.

Percentages shouldn't be a point of argument. For me, it just means I'm open to women, but prefer men. Will it always be that way? I don't know. Has it always been that way? No.

Personally, if I'm crushing on someone here, I admit to looking at their percentage. If they like women, then 'yay'! If not, then into the friend zone. I prefer to fantasize about someone who might actually fantasize about me, too! :biggrin: Just being honest and that's just my opinion. Falling for a guy who isn't into women is just going to hurt me.

I will respond here I guess. As has been said by others. . sexuality is a spectrum. People identify as being somewhere on the spectrum. Some people's sexuality does not crystalize. Some people change their views on their orientation throughout their lives. I Am not one who enjoys labels, mainly because the do not (fully) describe someone who is an individual. I do however assume a Label at times because it helps other people know more about me such as: I am gay, a bear, a leatherman, bottom. . all those things I fairly well identify with. As far as exclusivity goes. . I try not to exclude people because standing on the outside looking in, is never a good thing. No one likes to feel left out. However the interests of some people, just do not interest me.
