Sexual preference poll

Lt_Cody

(yes, poll coming shortly)

"100%" means that you are not turned on by members of the sex that is not your preference. You can recognize if someone is good looking, though, just not get excited by them.

"90% - 10%" and "10% - 90%" means that you can be turned on by members of the sex that is not your preference, but you wouldn't neccesarily pursue one (except possibly in your mind's eye or maybe as an experiment). Note that you needn't be considering such experimentation to qualify for this category, it's enough to be able to be turned on / fantasize.

"75% - 25%" and "25% - 75%" means you prefer the one option, but are entirely open to anything that is available.

"50% - 50%" means just that, either way you are equally happy.

I am 25% heterosexual, 5% homosexual, and 70% asexual.

Ergo, my label, "trisexual". *nods*

This poll is bad, heterosexual and homosexual desires are not mutually exclusive. Bisexuals can be just as attracted to males as a heterosexual female while still being attracted to women. Kinsey’s sliding scale was thrown out a long time ago, just like how no one seriously diagnoses people according to Freud’s theories.

I myself am asexual; I would say I was about 15% heterosexual, zero % homosexual.

Umm, that's why there's the 50/50 option, aka Bisexuals ;)

Thank you for at least offering a range, instead of the typical hetero/bi/homosexual false trichotomy.

I am 60% heterosexual and 40% homosexual. Approximately.

last time i read my user manual it said to mix to gallons of beer for every gallon of any other substance.

oh it also said 100% heterosexual, it even had a warning label in it that read "Bars that people are dressed like cowboys are not to be entered"
also had "every orifice below the waist is one way only"

That would be me. The thought of having sex with another man does not repulse me, but it carries no appeal either.
Oddly enough 90% of the people I meet tend to assume I am gayer than Big Gay Al.

I am just capable of recognizing when people are attractive, men or women.

Gay men always assume I'm gay, and straight people and lesbians always assume I'm straight. It's just because I fall into the metrosexual catagory. :p

I love the female body, so warm and elegant. But then again I do like my own body a lot, very powerful and muscular.

A percentage?

Hetero- 95%
Homo- 5%

I guess because I can't even watch a porn with a lady and a guy, complete turn off.

I'm kind of glad it hasn't turned into a 'gay rights blood bath', as Roman Strength has put it. As interesting as some can be, I kind of get tired of it after a while.

My answer? 90-10,
What I find interesting is how more guys say they're 100% heterosexual than girls. I think it's easier for a girl to admit it than a guy because of the society we live in.

Studies have shown that bi men don't actually exist. They've tested arousal on men who claimed to be bi and they were only aroused by one gender or the other. Bi women however, tended to actually be bi.

100% heterosexual

I really can't recognize if a guy is attractive or not. I mean, I usually just assume that girls will like a guy if he has no facial deformities and is muscular, but all the time I'll hear girls think completely unexpected guys are hot.

I'd be interested in it too. I've had many bi male friends who then realised they're gay. But I do also have others who like both women and men. So more insight would be cool.

I think that some people read a study and assume it has to be true just because they took a group of 100 people and got some results. 100 people or 1000 or even 10000 cant represent something so effectively that it becomes "so". I've seen people on this forum state adamantly that there is no such thing as bi males. Thats untrue. I have gay friends and bi friends and I will attest to bi men actually being attracted to both sexes. We cant lump everyone into groups all the time.

Agreed. My own experience tells me the same. I have bi male friends as well who seem to be genuinely attracted to both genders. The cases I usually disbelieve are when they tell me they prefer men by 80%. Then I think it's closet homosexuality.

Intriguing.

One-third of the participants lacked arousal to either erotic film; that makes me question the effectiveness of the study.

What seems quite possible to me is that many bisexual men have a preference one way or another, and are simply not locked into that preference as much as others. Or the ones in the study might just have been more aroused by one or the other of the films because of differences that have nothing to do with the sexes of the participants.

I went 10/90 myself. I consider myself gay, but I did one time sleep with a girl and I found her genuinely attractive. Of course, that was back in high school when I was "experimenting", so I'm not sure that it counts. She turned out to be a lesbian and I turned out to be a gay man. Go figure, right?

Still, I like to keep my options open, just in case.
