Would you choose to be straight if you could?

Much like Patrick, once upon a time I would've answered yes. Now, never, not even if you tell me I can be born again.

I think that if I was straight I would have missed the oportunity to love someone as much as I do now. He's my soulmate, he understands me completely (unless I'm not explaining things correctly at all :lol: ), he makes me love myself even more and gives me the motivation to work hard. We talked about it once before (if both of us were straight) and we said that we might actually have a very platonic friendship, even try to be in a relationship because of how much we complement each other.

So no... I would never change to be straight, and, if it happens, I'm sure I would love him more than anyone in the world, just with no sexual attraction. :icon_bigg

 

Not exactly... I'm completely happy with myself at the moment But if I could be reborn and it was like a character creation type of thing then I'd probably make myself as being a beautiful, intelligent and straight female

 

It seems I'm getting there fast... And it will get me kicked out of EC...

 

I'm okay being gay.

 

Yeah. I don't mind being asexual or demisexual or whatever it is that I am, but why do I have to like guys? It would just be easier if I didn't.

 

No... I like being able to experience attraction to various genders, rather than being confined to just one.

As for my gender, I'd choose to be bio male in a heartbeat, if only that were possible.

 

nope

even though it would eliminate half of my problems

 

I do like Gypsycloset statement, "Also.....boys are too damn sexy to be straight." Right on.

Thats a damn good question, I've got to go have a beer and ponder this a bit. Will be back.

Well ok back from having a beverage. Since I was so shamed about my sexuality to the point of not knowing anything about who I am (brainwashed) and having never had an intimate boy friend (a deep primal sadness) I guess I will have to abstain from answering the question until I find love (hopefully) some day.

 

I think I would.

I say this because literally every single person I'm meeting is in a relationship. My best friends are.

I'm not usually one to care about what others do, but this is just something that bugs me. If I were straight, I'd have a much easier time.

I don't really want to change, but this would only be the reason I would.

 

Why would it do that? You are still valuable member of the EC family no matter if you are LGBT or not.

I don't think supporting and helping LGBT people is under LGBT community. Anyone without biased opinions, empathy and wisdom to share welcome.

At least that is my opinion.

(*hug*)

 

Nah. I've come too far to give this up. I'm happy about who I am now

 

as Kaiser previously stated, I wouldn't change my sexual orientation as it expands my understanding of all people around me in a way that a homosexual or straight individual probably couldn't. I enjoy this part of me that allows me to fall in love with anyone regardless of their gender.

and though I feel like it'd be much easier to have been a born a male, I think my soul is way too feminine and I'm happy with my body and gender - so, no, I wouldn't change that either!

 

Hell no.

 

No. I'm happy I'm a sexual minority.

 

Until recently I'd never considered it to be an option. Since I'm bisexual, I have twice as many people to check out. I feel like I could live as a straight dude if I wanted to, but I'd never want to actually be straight. It's become so much of who I am, I'd feel like I was someone different if I tried to change. The struggle has made me stronger. Probably find out being straight is more complicated than I thought

Just think about how lucky we are. We're allowed into the same locker rooms, changing rooms, showers as the sex we like. Do straight people get that luxury? I don't think so.

In all seriousness though, it really does suck sometimes. But you knew that.

 

Not now I wouldn't.. I've met an AMAZING girl and I adore her so much! I wouldn't change these feelings for the world! 3 years ago when I was hating myself over my sexuality and when I believed I was going to burn in a lake of fire.. I may have jumped at the chance to be straight if I could. But I was in a bad place.. I was in love with a 25 year old straight canadian backpacker and I barely had friends because I shut myself away and pushed people away!

 

What would I want to be straight for ? ._.
It ain't that much of a matter that it would be worth changing.

 

Sometimes since I still very much like the idea of guys and being with one and I find that hard to let go of at times. But at the same time being gay makes me somewhat excited because for the first time in my life I realize that I am a sexual being who can be sexually attracted to people and I want to explore that part of me with other girls.

 

I'm too tired to think about it, g'nite, all.

 

Yikes.

It's tough to say. I mean, dealing with the difficulties of being. gay and in the closet make it awful tempting to say yes.

Ultimately life would be easier.

But it's so ingrained in who I am it's tough to say I'd just get rid of it.

So probably no.
