How do you think you would rate having sex with the opposite sex ?

    I'm saying I'm sure you would not appreciate anyone telling you what gender you ought to be sleeping with WonderWoman, and I'm quite sure I'm correct on that point.

    who I sleep with is no ones business you're right

    Both nice, both very different imho.

    Well then WonderWoman, why do you see no disrespect in someone making a blanket statement that straight men ought to be sleeping with each other? Respecting peoples sexual orientation is (or ought to be) a two-way street. Suppose I said in your company: "Sex with men is nicer and gay women would agree if they only did it often enough - they should definitely all try it at least once!" :eek:

    I would say that remark was ignorant and presumptuous in the extreme and you can be sure it would never come out my mouth, but let's say it did - how would that go down with you?

    I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to say - Sorry!

    The comment would be some what akin to saying that gay men only have sex with men because they can't get women. He is questioning the validity of straight men's sexual preferences by suggesting that they are only straight because of the stigma of homosexuality. I am pretty sure there are plenty of posters here who would be up in arms if anyone tried to suggest that Gay people only prefer same sex, sex because they have not tried sex with the opposite sex which is the transverse of what that poster said.

    I'd say that you shouldnt put people in boxes there are always exceptions I wouldnt be offended by it or anything though :confused:

    Hi All,

    I think this is a good topic, and interesting to read. I am a straight female and have many gay friends both male and female. Having known them for a long time, they have been with both sexes, but over time seem to prefer the same sex, and my male gay friend said he could not be with a women now if he wanted, just couldnt perform!!
    But I just wanted to discuss the point about men should try it with other men and they may enjoy it more etc!!
    I have to agree with the other guys, I think thats a bit of a silly statement to make, I mean my partner of over 10 years is a very open guy and knows my gay friends but would never even consider it...he is just straight and loves women. But most of my gay friends have said this to me many times, that I should try it with a women once etc, and that I would prob like it more. I mean if I wanted a women I would go out and find one, in this day and age wouldnt care if I was bi or gay, but Im not, and I hated when my gay friends even suggested this. So I do think that some gay people think that just because they enjoy same sex, that we should aswell......and if a straight person said that to them, that they should go back to the opposite sex as they would prefer it, it would be considered homophobic!!! well thats my take on it.. I think each to their own. If you want a man today and women tmo then so be it....Love has no gender as they say!!

    Okay back on topic this was more just a way to gauge how different we view heterosexual encounters , It's interesting to see differing opinions like how some are okay with and even enjoy them and still identify as gay and some are absolutely mortified by it , so lets try, for the first time ever on the LGBT forum not let it get into a semantics debate .

    I am , but i'm just tired of how most threads on the LGBT forum become semantic debates nothing good comes of it , I'd appreciate if you would delete your last post and i'll delete that section of my comment

    Nope :) I identify as gay.. well, maybe queer.. well.. maybe meh!

    Women get my pulse racing, and I connect on a completely different emotional level with women, compared to men. I don't want to be in a relationship with a man, and I want to be in a relationship with a woman. :)

    Sounds like me - connecting different on an emotional level. But I'm the opposite to your other post - I might be up for the relationship aspect but not the sex. It's like 'meh' or it was in my experience but that's going back a bit. To be fair, it might've been just our inexperienced age that made for the 'meh'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,510 ✭✭✭baby and crumble


    I'm sure the actual sex bit would be grand, if the guy were attending to me ;), but I'm pretty sure I'd find it a bit... unpleasant to be doing stuff to a guy. I just don't want to. Plus the thought of snuggling with a guy afterwards is just odd to me, like a completely alien concept. All hard and hairy. Weird.

    But I don't think I'd be like "OH GOD NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" if the situation arose and I was horny and single... but who knows?

    I lived with a guy for three years when I was younger so technically I guess I am but I haven't been with one in over a decade. Don't know if that answers your question but honestly on the topic at hand, I've a very good platonic male friend and if he even so much as removes his shirt in front of me during the summer I get angry and tell him I don't want to be confronted by his body hair, or even so much as smell his sweat in my vicinity. If his bare skin touches of me I get angry and the sight of a man demonstrating his sexual prowess makes me pukey so it would take a lot to even think of sleeping next to one let alone having sex with one.
    Sorry but that's really, really stupid. Dunno how he's even friends with you tbh.

    it might sound a bit much but its not that unusual. there are folks that just dont like to be touched by the bare skin of someone they arent intimate with.

    I don't think so and fortunately as it's my life it doesn't really matter what you think. But he is my friend as much as it písses you off and we're perfectly able to co exist without seeing each others naked bodies, we've even been known to bear hug occasionally. Sometimes we even manage to have fun and laugh a lot, or drink beer and who'd have thunk it, work together. We buy each other gifts on birthday's and christmas and very often we do more than talk, sometimes we cry (when I say we I mean me) and help each other out but mostly we get to share life's little stories with each other every other day. I just don't need to see his fur to do any of it.

    I know the Tone is meant to be bitchy but I cannot help but laugh at this :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,522 ✭✭✭Kanoe


    he finds it funny too teh bastard.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,212 ✭✭✭WonderWoman!


    I know its a bit OTT but When men walk around with their "fur" on display -to me- they may aswell be walking round with their pubes on show


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,522 ✭✭✭Kanoe


    yup might as well be shoving his pubes in my face

    Apologies for saying that the part when he touches you is stupid, as Aishae mentioned I suppose a lot of people don't like to be physically close to people. I still think seeing him without a shirt on making you angry is a bit much but to each their own I suppose. Sorry about overreacting earlier :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,522 ✭✭✭Kanoe


    I'm guessing your a gay man.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,212 ✭✭✭WonderWoman!


    ^ I'm guessing you could be onto something there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,510 ✭✭✭baby and crumble


    TBH I find the idea of getting angry when you see a mans chest is a bit much. Seems to be an extreme reaction IMHO. And I'm not a gay man. At all.

    How do you cope at the beach / pool?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,285 ✭✭✭BanzaiBk


    I'd rate myself at a 0 because two tops never make a right :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,207 ✭✭✭jaffacakesyum


    Yeah have to say, it seems a bit extreme to get angry at someone for being topless just because you don't find them attractive :eek: :P God knows, I've seen some fuglys in revealing clothes/topless that I wouldn't be attracted to but I'd hardly get angry because of it!

    Each to their own though I suppose :)

    Yes I am. I would also have no problem whatsoever seeing a woman in a swimsuit/bikini/naked if you're trying to imply something.
