An interesting question

[Bionca]

Gay.. not gay... the #1 question and mind-fuck for guys who like gals like me.

First, does it matter if you are gay?

Second, it would depend on how you view people like me, am I a guy with tits, or a woman with a penis (I have my own answer to that one)?

My answer to your question: Human sexuality is complicated and vague and always changing. Labels are good for a kind of mental shorthand, but fail when applied to real people in a real world.

[Bionca]

Forgot to add... as far as most people in they world care - yes, you are gay gay GAY.

[Howsoon]

One day there will be a world which won't care if you're gay, straight, bi, curious or an elephant!!

[cyba]

..yes, you are gay gay GAY

Or - bi, bi, BI?
That needs clarification too. It appears that most guys who are attracted to LBs are not attracted to guys. LBs, themselves, state that from their experience of guys, as do lots of guys on this forum, and elsewhere. They're adamant. But then there's the question of 'cock' or, particularly, that strange allure of feminity-plus-cock. Cock is definitely in there. Read the posts. It's 'writ' pretty large. Strictly speaking, 'bi' means 'swinging both ways' - guys and girls. But LB-loving guys state they're not interested in screwing or sucking or fondling a male. So, in that sense, they're not bi. But no bio - um, 'bi-o' - female has a cock and 'straight' guys state they're only interested in one thing -'pussy' (and a relationship with women which may or may not lead to marriage and children and a life of domestic bliss - which is not meant to imply that solid, quality relationships can't happen between LBs/TGs and non-gay guys or that, some time in the future, if not now, they might, if they wish adopt a child (a politico-ethical tangle).)
So where are we with our terms?
The extra difficulty is, guys also make the comment here that they're not interested in LBs who have 'trans-gendered', i.e. no longer have a cock which, again, points to that appendage being fundamentally important to them.
Here's another question - what if you found a 'bio' (for want of a better expression) woman with a clitoris 4-5-6 inches long which had a glans just like a penis. No balls, of course. Would that person do?
My guess is - no..it's not a guy.

I am turned on by LBs but not by men. I dont know if it is a "fetish" or what to call it, my fiance insists im bi, but i dont realy agree.

Well guys and girls,

this is a qurestion that will never be answered to anyone's satisfaction. As new people join the community they will, sooner or later, start to ask these type questions.

The point is, for a straight man being considered gay is something he would want to avoid under all circumstances. Certainly I would, because I cannot imagine any kind of sexual contact with an adult male, the only exception being if he were young enough or definitely feminine.

It's of no interest to me what others think of me. It's how I perceive myself and I don't want to consider myself gay. But I happily concede to every man to be gay!

That said it's not so much the physical aspects but the male behaviour and way of thinking and acting. A woman has quite a different nature and the more a guy tends toward that female nature the sooner I could consider sexual contacts.

As far as T-girls are concerned, I love T-girls. I may even say I am addicted to T-girls. They fascinate me because they are, from my point of view, definitely women and they have this wonderful extra gift that I love equally much. It makes them so very special. That's why T-girls once they have gone through an SRS i.e once they have their penis removed are not of interest to me any more.

Summarizing it: No, I am NOT gay but I could very well imagine being happily married to a T-girl.

Does that make any sense? Maybe I'm talking rubbish.

Anyway,

Have fun!

I Say No on the gay thing. I do not consider myself to be "Gay". I am not actively looking for TG company. I just enjoy the pornography. And I dont personally believe contact to be "Gay" or make you "Gay". I know guys that will gang bang a girl, they are not "Gay". It's a tough one, Really.

LOL!

Oh, Bionca. You have opened Pandora's Box there! :D

I agree, by the way.

If labels *are* just labels, and if people are inclined to use them as people generally do, then we're ALL gay.

I don't know why people have such a struggle over this issue. Bruce Lee: "truth exists outside all molds; pattern and awareness is never exclusive."

L-DOG:

Just pulling your chain, dude.

You're on the hetero side of bi, and you move closer to bi by degrees of interest and physical activity. True bi is sleeping w/ both sexes equally, and that means dudes as dudes. Only being turned on by t-girls w/o any physical contact makes you a bi-curious hetero.

[twistedone]

Well said Bionca.

My only desire is that she enjoys me, as much as I enjoy her.

I like your reply, racquel.

Gay porn registered as a threat response as though the viewer's life was actually in danger from witnessing gay sex

That makes sense, especially the last bit. Until recently, gay males were
illegitimized (they may still be) by the dominant hetero-sexual culture whose 'psycho-biology' is powerfully procreative and states, outright, that anything else is 'unnatural'..and..'you'll burn in hell (religion.)'
I can easily imagine some poor student, or other, feeling panic and stress when his brain pleasure centre lights up in the lab and his nob twitches while watching guys (or ladyboys) having it off. It's a public event. He might not feel the same reaction in the privacy of his own or some other person's room.

Edit

One day there will be a world which won't care if you're gay, straight, bi, curious or an elephant!!

Maybe, Howsoon. That's what it will take.

Hi everyone,
The story at shemale stories that I wrote (Charlie and Khloe) has a proposed solution to the human male - female dilemma. Check it out.

Personally, I wouldn't stress about it - the most important thing to me is to focus on what makes you happy. I love looking at LBs, but don't ever look at men - I don't worry about whether I am gay, bi, straight, whatever, I just enjoy my sexuality.

[Leggmann81]

I think the problem is too many people think of it as being a black or white situation, but I believe that human sexuality is full of lots of greyscale. For a long time I wondered if I was gay or straight, until I finally realized that the question itself is irrelevant. I'm attracted to some people and not to others. Some of those people are male, most are female, and a good portion fit somewhere in between. I've finally learned to appreciate, and enjoy my sexuality.

[hungsum]

Well said Leggman, for me it's mostly about fantasy,
I've never experienced a girl with a cock but both fascinate me.
I don't think of myself as gay but the rest of the world probably would if they knew my private thoughts.
I'm not the least bit attracted to men, only women
and yet cocks turn me on (go figure)
