How likely is it?

On a side note, I was watching some porn last night. And as I was going through various gay videos online, a straight porn video came up. As soon as it started to play, I completely lost all interest and any arousal I had vanished!

I then shut off the tablet and fantasize about guys.

hehe - I am gay :roflmao:

 

Oh my God, this is so true! This right here is exactly what happened to me.

 

I spent about a minute trying to figure out who the heck Simone was, but finally figured it out.

Could I get an erection contemplating sex with a woman? Yes. It happened quite a bit in my early years. Mainly because I thought I was straight. My sexual energies were, you might say, undirected. I wanted to "have sex", and since I thought women were what I was supposed to be turned on by, I'd think "OK, here's what I'll be having sex with", and away I'd go.

Even now, given a very specific set of circumstances, I can turn myself on by contemplating sex with a woman. But let's just say there are FAR fewer necessary circumstances necessary to turn me on when it comes to contemplating sex with a man.

That's actually sounds like a great place to be! Once you have removed the fear, you can then really get to the bottom of what your true sexuality is!

 

There are lots of straight men and women who are curious about same sex relationships (many have joined EC), so we should not and must not dismiss the idea that gay men and women might be equally curious about opposite sex relationships. It cuts both ways!

Does curiosity lead to arousal? Can it lead to arousal? Yes, of course. When our mind indulges in a sexual fantasy of some sort it stands to reason actually. I wouldn't expect a gay man or woman to fantasise about the opposite sex often, but I think it would be wrong to say never.

If we want to use the Kinsey theory, we might conclude that a Kinsey 6 gay man would never entertain thoughts of intimacy with the opposite sex, but in reality few of us are Kinsey 6. We might wish to be and some of us become excessively anxious if we discover that we are not quite gold star gays, but that's how it is for most of us actually and it opens up the potential for some kind of opposite sex curiosity... even if we close it down very quickly.

 

Might you take comfort in the fact that things are seldom binary. Don't get me wrong. I am confused too. But humans are complex and therefore so is sexuality. It's ok not to know.
