Regardless of your gender, if you had to be a homosexual or a lesbian which one would you be? And why? Also, I've excluded 'Bisexual' as an option. You can't have both, it's greedy!
Yeah, so if you had to choose between the two, which one would you be and which one annoys you the least in life?

I'd be a hot, nasty lesbian dominatrix. *Licks lips*

How is it any more greedy then being attracted to one sex?

What if I'm already gay? Should I play the game and say what I'd prefer to be between a straight guy or a straight girl?

I pick straight guy. I love my penis too much to give it up.

Oh may want to note ... lesbians ARE homosexuals

Lesbians ARE homosexual. The poll sucks

Lesbians ARE homosexual.
I win!

I'd rather be a lesbian.

That makes one of us. :p

Lesbian. 'Cause women get a right to be evil, whereas men get accused of bias.

Plus I can wear feline attire without people looking at me quite so strangely. :D

I was being frivolous and joking.

The poll sucks
... No pun intended, I assume?

If I was a lesbian then I wouldn't have to take it up the butt when I had sex.

And then there is the hot, lacy lingerie. ;)

Hey, don't go dissing butt sex now!

If I was a lesbian then I wouldn't have to take it up the butt when I had sex.
There's nothing wrong with that...

:fluffle:

Did anyone ever notice that the fluffle smileys are gay? Look at them...no way to tell which is which gender. They're both male smileys.

And then there is the hot, lacy lingerie. ;)
Ooh... Of course, I'd have to ditch triasexuality for homoasexuality, but it might just be worth it.

There's nothing wrong with that...

Just ain't my thing.

Homo = man
Sexual = sexual

So, lesbians are attracted to men?
I'd say homesexuals are homosexual.

Just ain't my thing.
Not particularly mine either. I give, I don't receive. :)

Are you male or female, just out of curiosity?

Error. Homo = omo, meaning similar from Greek. Not the same as the Latin Homo.

True. Does the root word for "sex" come from Greek or Latin, in that case?

Homo also means "same". Yes, lesbians are homosexuals. Look up homosexual and homosexuality in the dictionnary; it encompasses both genders.

Sexual = sexual

Homo=same.

Homosexual=Same Sex

True. Does the root word for "sex" come from Greek or Latin, in that case?
No. It's not a purely greek word. In Greek it would be "omofilofilos", meaning someone attracted to the same sex. So it's an amalgamation of Latin and Greek.

Homo = man
Sexual = sexual

So, lesbians are attracted to men?
I'd say homesexuals are homosexual.
Where are you geting you definitions

homo = same

I'm a male.
Methinks you've probably had experiences with guys who don't know what they're doing. You have a prostate; if done right, anal sex should be enjoyable.

It always depends on the partner you've got.

Where are you geting you deffinitions

I already beat you all to it.

I assume that this poll means 'gay man' instead of homosexual? Because all lesbians are homosexual, but not all homosexuals are lesbian.

And what's wrong with getting anal sex? It can be great fun, if the guy giving it knows how to do it right. :)

A bottle of lube, lots of love and trust, and a little work is all it needs to be 7th heaven.

I'm not gay just to let you know. So I haven't had any experiences with that.

Brain is the largest sex organ, some men don't get off on anal sex at all, regardless of prostate stimulation.

Actually the Latin word "homo" means man in the sense of mankind. You don't hear the word man used as such very often anymore because it is considered sexist. I suppose a better translation for contemporary English speakers would be "human."

Anyway, as others have previously pointed out, this "homo" is taken from the Greak word for "same."

Homo = man


Your definition will now haunt me every time I drink homogenised milk.

SOYLENT MILK IS PEOPLE! PEEEOOPLEEE!!!!!!

Wouldn't that make everyone homosexual, in that case?

Except for bestialists of course...

I would agree. For me to get turned on, my mind must be in the right mood. Otherwise, it just doesn't work. A more female aspect of me I guess.

You mean you're not?

A bit of sexuality trivia: the original meaning of 'homosexual' was what is now the current definition of 'heterosexual'.

You mean you're not?
Mentally, yeah :) Physically...well my body was just too stupid to keep up with my brain.

I know, I was kidding with ya. ;)

Well.... he's close enough. :p

Darn bodies, never doing what you want them to! I just discovered that I might be attracted to women. The horror! I can no longer dominate the world! :eek:

It's easy.

I already am gay... :D

Tee-hee. :) *cracks whip on witless slave*

which one annoys you the least in life?

I am always amused by the sexism in homophobia.

Just the other day, me and a friend were walking and saw two men holding hands and then one went away after a quick kiss in the lips to the other guy.

My friend was kinda repulsed by this and I was intrigued because I know he got lesbian porn on his computer. He even ordered girls gone wild DVD after watching the ads (where girls kiss and neck).

So I asked him why he has different emotions to lesbians and gays....and he mumbled something about how it is different and tried to shift the topic and never gave me a straight answer. I decided not to push it and left it there.

Do you think this is more prevalent? that men look at lesbians more favorably (even lustfully) than gays?

Was this thread just directed to people who are already homosexuals?

Out of curiosity, are you male or female?
Male. That's the awful part. I might even be forced by societal norms to reproduce. :(

This is stupid, if your a straight man you would obviously want to be a lezbian and if your gay you would want to be gay. And vice versa for the ladies. How stupid can you get!

Do you think this is more prevalent? that men look at lesbians more favorably (even lustfully) than gays?
Straight men (the majority at least) think with their little "soldiers", nay "generals". They find lesbianism hot. Hence, the "general" takes command. When it comes to men, going beyond their state of neanderthaldom is just too much work to be worth the effort.

Do you think this is more prevalent? that straight men look at lesbians more favorably (even lustfully) than gays?
(Correction added by moi in bold.)

Yes. It's the "unattainable" syndrome. People are more likely to be attracted to things or people they cannot have; "the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence". Thus, people would want an XBox 360 that their parents won't consent for them to use; or an article of clothing too expensive for them to purchase; or someone attracted to the opposite sex, especially men with lesbians but occasionally also straight women with gays (Sinuhue and Fass, for instance.).

I'm not gay just to let you know. So I haven't had any experiences with that.
Oh, so that means you haven't tried it! That explains a lot.

You have a prostate too even if you're straight, you know. Ask your girlfriend to go play there next time she gives you a blowjob; you'll see what I'm talking about.

Male. That's the awful part. I might even be forced by societal norms to reproduce. :(
I pity you. Children...what could be worse. :confused:

Tee-hee. :) *cracks whip on witless slave*
Yay sadomasochism!

/handcuffs random people to his ankles and flogs them into voluntarily putting on collars/

Are you male or female, just out of curiosity?

Which are you?

I pity you. Children...what could be worse. :confused:
That's the problem; I have an unfettered hate for children. I'd have to practise abstinence to avoid it, too, knowing some people's "moral" views...

It could be just a phase and I'll soon return to the natural order of things, biasexuality. :D

Which are you?
Skaladora is the Flying Spaghetti Monster.


(Ask a silly question...)

Please don't! I'm not sure the world can survive a generation under your tyrannical rule, less alone if you have heirs and found a dynasty of evil tyrants! :p

I'm a gay male. Obviously.

I might have children if I can find a hot blonde boyfriend to perpetuate the blonde species. :eek: Otherwise, not worth the effort. :p

I figured that out after your post about having my girlfriend do stuff to me.

Problem is, there's a good chance (25%) it'll end up as a YY, which means it'll die automatically:


... X .... Y
X | XX | XY
Y | XY | [YY]

Good luck, though.

Obviously was meant as in "I already said it at the beginning of the thread".

My suggestion about your girlfriend do stuff to you isn't my idea, though. I learned in the last couple of years that several of my straight friend either enjoy having their prostates stimulated during a blowjob, or would like to try it. You'd be surprised how much fun it can be. Prostates aren't only a gay thing :p

Hey, all babies go to Heaven, so whatever. In some ways it'd be done a favour. :)

Please don't! I'm not sure the world can survive a generation under your tyrannical rule, less alone if you have heirs and found a dynasty of evil tyrants! :p
Exactly. Once I rule the world, I will not have a son or daughter who might try to usurp my throne or challenge my power (or revolt and drag along most of my Indomitable Legions of Terror).

Are you touched by His Noodly Appendage too? ;)
Only after He finishes cleaning it. [/fass]

I can't think of a response :(

True. Abortion is kindness.

That's why we, the evil sadists, should illegalise it! So the goddamn babies will have to live their lives, and then go to hell afterwards! Mwahahaha!

(Unique pro-life reasoning)


... or actually, we should illegalise abortion because legalising it will encourage more people to be straight!

(Mixed metaphor)

This is stupid, if your a straight man you would obviously want to be a lezbian and if your gay you would want to be gay. And vice versa for the ladies. How stupid can you get!
Not necessarily.

For a man to become a lesbian he would first need to become a woman. His gender identity just wouldn't work, so he would probably, if push came to shove, prefer being a gay man.

Safe for women.

Sorta selfish, plus women wouldn't let us get away with it, being the majority and all. :p

Homo also means "same". Yes, lesbians are homosexuals. Look up homosexual and homosexuality in the dictionnary; it encompasses both genders.

Oh, cool. Thanks for clearing that up for me and expanding my knowledge of the English language.

Well, owing to the many oddities of the English language we're both correct on the 'homosexual' word use.

From http://www.onelook.com" (")
Homosexual

The noun is first recorded 1912 in Eng., 1907 in French. In technical use, either male or female; but in non-technical use almost always male. Slang shortened form homo first attested 1929. The alternative homophile (1960) was coined in ref. to the homosexual regarded as a person of a particular social group, rather than a sexual abnormality. Homo-erotic first recorded 1916; homophobia is from 1969.

Exactly! :eek: If only the rest of the Catholic Church would see this beautiful gift abortion brings.
Not a chance, they're too busy grappling with their repressed sexuality to see beyond the blindness of their compatriots.

Oh, well, damn. But I still liked combining two flawed arguments. :D

True. :( They need Jesus to return and slap them on the side of their heads.

I can't think of a response :(
A response to what?

If I was a lesbian then I wouldn't have to take it up the butt when I had sex.What else do you think your prostrate gland is for?

MMMmmmm Prostrate Gland :D

Regardless of your gender, if you had to be a homosexual or a lesbian which one would you be? And why? Also, I've excluded 'Bisexual' as an option. You can't have both, it's greedy!
Yeah, so if you had to choose between the two, which one would you be and which one annoys you the least in life?
How is either any more appealing to be than the other?

Homo = man
Sexual = sexual

No, 'homo' means 'same'. If homo meant man, then straight women would also be homosexual.

I would agree. For me to get turned on, my mind must be in the right mood. Otherwise, it just doesn't work. A more female aspect of me I guess.
How is that more female? Stereotypically female, yes, but actually female? You that women have the only organ that exists solely for sexual pleasure, right? And it's not in their brains either.

especially men with lesbians but occasionally also straight women with gays
Czardas, attraction to male homosexuality is just as widespread among women as attraction to female homosexuality is among men.

(blink, blink)

Gay already, ineligible for the poll. I note there are some very courageous folks who actaully answer the question, but mostly this is mental masturbation ;).

Me likee cocks....a lot. Just thinking about them makes me....

Neither....you need a 3rd option.

I would not be an idiot who thinks that Lesbians are not Homosexuals....wow.

at risk of repeating someone else's post-- I'm just replying without reading the thread thus far-- a lesbian (that is, a woman who exclusively desires other women) *is* a "homosexual." Generally the male analog to "lesbian" is "gay man," at least that's what I usually call myself. But sometimes I identify as a 'queer man' or a 'fag'-- usually 'angry militant fag.' But that's like the N-word... it's ours and it's rude for you to use it if you aren't one. I even have a t-shirt that says in great big block letters across the chest: "Fag." I love it, scares the bejeezus out of the breeders ;)

And certainly gets the men who swing our way intrigued to say the least ;)

Even if I was the hottest lesbian in the world, free to have multiple orgasms, multiple partners, multiple *toys* (take that to mean whatever you'd like), and diminished chance of AIDS despite the daily fuckfest I'd probably entertain, I'd still be female.

That means monthly periods, menopause, and emotional swings, not to mention inequality in society, greater chance of rape, etc. But the thing that I most would be unwilling to put up with is the chance that I might be driven more by emotions that rationale. (Oh no, stereotype!) And that is something I'm not willing to have happen.

Lesbian... because I just can't see myself getting worked up over a hard chisled body covered with hair.

but a nice soft woman...

Given the choice between being a gay man or a gay woman, I think I'd have to go with the latter, simply because I'm pretty sure I'd be a lot more freaked out by changing sex than by changing sexual orientation. I'm used to being a girl-person, with girl-parts; I wouldn't know what to do with all those strange male wiggly bits. ;)

Dumb poll.. But I'm sure that has already been said. Lesbian.

Likewise. I don't think I'd be able to stand complaining about it being too cold all the time. (Oh no! Stereotype!) :D

wah! i don't like polls i can't vote in. i feel like the world might explode now because i didn't vote. i will never know what might have heppened if i had. damn.

I'd totally be a gay man. My gay male friends just seem to be having so much goddamn fun, so much of the goddamn time.

Funny, where I live the term for homosexual is "Breeder" or "VB".
Or occasionally "wafflemess".

"Fag" is like using the term "bitch" for a woman, it is now a banner a tee-shirt logo, a greeting card cliche'. It is an institution of commercialized Homosexuality.

Pillow-Biter that is a better term, it has imagery.
Splitlicker(for a Lesbian), again it is visual.

Catcher and Pitcher are of course always cute for the men.

I suppose I could go down the list of pejorative labels all day in a fairly unnecessary manner.

I suppose since we are using such terms like "fag" and "breeder" why bother punking out with the "N-Word" and just say ******.
Spik, Kike, Towel-head, porch-monkey, jiggaboo, cracker, bolvio, snowflake, Uncle Salty, Zipperhead...so forth and so on.

Yes, really scare the bejeezus out of people indeed, it is childish offense at its mildest and frightening old ladies at its worst--either way it only serves to perpetuate stereotypes.
Wafflemess, you want to scare the bejeeezus out of someone then call them wafflemess and when they ask what that is, you show them.
Other then that have some fecking respect for yourself and others.

The best term for people is people...hopefully person if you are lucky and maybe their fecking name if you are really lucky.
