Thread: What Is Your Sexual Orientation?

I think most secure men would admit this. Anyway, I'm straight up straight. I looooove the ladies my lady

Love my man. But some chicks are effin hawt.

My childhood left me extremely ambivalent about the mating game, and in late adolescence (late teens/ early 20s) I was all over the board, including a few undeniable man-crushes, though I never followed through on them. If you'd asked me then, I would have said bi, but in the years since, my fantasy life, attractions and activity have gone exclusively hetero.

I was bisexual, but then decided that the one man that could change me was who I am with now. I've tried being with girls, but some are just.. way too crazy. I appreciate the beauty of women and men, but most people anymore aren't physically attractive to me. I think I've either become so in love with one person, or just extremley picky. I can't tell.

I am pretty sure I'm bisexual, but I can't really be entirely sure until I try it out I guess.

I figure I'm straight. Never been in love with any men, nor even felt any sort of admiration except for the ultra femenine ones, so.

You can't have all the odd *philia's in the poll, you know.

umm.. yeah anyways, but I am straight. Yup.

Yeah? Sure sounds like it

I'm gonna have to say straight. The idea of being with another man has never appealed to me, to be honest.

Power to the gay people, though!

straight for me. I can't see whats so appealing about guys at all. The female body is just so amazingly hot. I guess i can tell an ugly guy from an attractive one, but i just dont understand why a girl would find them attractive.

The male body is unattractive to me, but I do admit that I sometimes find the facial features of some men to be quite handsome (which is one of the reasons why I believe Michael Keaton made an infinitely better Batman than Christian Bale).

I love everything about guys.

^ me too!!! lol Actually I used to be sorta grossed out by guy's thingies. lol but not anymore. now I think they are sexy. lol Cept, yeah. Like curves are very sexy. But so are guys bodies. so it's complicated. lol

Straight; considered it a fair bit.

I like doing that.

It takes awhile for us to get the dresses on, the hair grown out and the boobs sorted out, but totally worth it.

You know, I'm straight and I love men, but I wouldn't be able to explain why to anyone. Just hormones, I guess. I'm also really picky about the certain men I'm attracted to in the first place.

Sometimes I think girls are sexy, but not enough to try to label myself as anything but decidedly hetero.

Pansexual

I don't really know.

Sadist

Hetero... and so picky it drives me up the wall. I wish I could be one of those guys who will sleep with anything.

This but the female version. And typically more on the 'envious' side than the 'appreciative' angle. Which means that deep down there must be some characteristics I find more attractive and thus worth being jealous or envious of, but it's in the sense of an aesthetically attractive person, not sexual attraction. Only guys do it for me, and only certain types of guys (enhanced or eliminated by personality).

Believe me, high standards are a good thing. Impossible standards, however, are not.

I've said and believed I'm heterosexual in the past but lately I've found some women really hot and remembered I did so in the past but put it on the backburner. Now I'm pretty sure I'm bisexual, although quite a bit more often attracted to men than women...still, when I am attracted to women, it's just as strong as when I'm attracted to men...I guess I'm just naturally "pickier" about women than men can't help it, that's just how it is.

My standards are not impossible ones, but I am still curious... Does the suggest that such standards are controllable?

I happen to think so. If something isn't working, make an adjustment. If I tried it with a lot of girls and it never really worked out because they never quite measured up to my standards, then (providing these were perfectly good girls), I would certainly lower my expectations a bit. Shoot for the A+, but failing that, a regular A or even a B is just fine, too. It's all relative, of course, but I think this quote definitely applies:

"The mind is its own place, and in itself, can make a heaven of hell or a hell of heaven."

I think we are on two different pages. There is a very, very specific type of woman I am capable of falling in love with, and it is a type that is too crazy to have solid relationships. I can't just suddenly decide to fall in love with stable women who can have good relationships. If I could, I would have done it already. There is so much background to what I am talking about that I am not sure how far we can go with this. I will sum a lot of it up by saying that I am positive romantic attraction tendencies are genetic and that the brain picks up on the signals of who is the correct type when there is no conscious awareness of it. I didn't even realize the pattern until my early twenties, but my brain knew very early on what signals to respond to. If you had asked me what they were a long time ago, I would have had no idea. That is how a lot of social interaction works.

How exactly did you lower your standards? I don't understand that. How do you turn on or off an attraction?
