Current Events > Imagine being a straight male...

(+) Yeah! (+)

and your only sexual options are either a woman who looks like a man, or a man who looks like a woman. Youre attracted to feminine looks, but not dick. Youre not attracted to masculine looks, but you like vagina. Which choice is what sexuality?

Basically, Im doing a thought experiment and trying to determine what truly dictates our perceptions of straight and gay. Is it just a genital preference? Or can it be just the attraction to a persons physical appearance? Whaddya call one without the other? Are both required?

This topic is obviously offensive, but it depends entirely on the person. Genitals aren't really on display in public anyway, so you're going to be attracted to the people who you normally would have been in the first place, whatever arbitrary elimination factors you've set for yourself wouldn't really come into play until long after your mind has already decided if there was an attraction or not.

In this scenario, the straight male is aware that the man who looks like a woman has a penis, and that the woman who looks like a man has a vagina. If he could only have sexual relations with one of these people, which option would make him what orientation? What Im getting at is, are straight and gay even 100% defined concepts?

I'd assume a super straight bro that gets offended if someone implies he could be gay would not be attracted to either option.

These are his only two options for sexual stimulation. Do you think hed choose to just masturbate?

There's always the option of not sleeping with people you aren't attracted to.

Probably

Straight and gay are just ends of a spectrum basically.

I wouldn't be attracted to either, but a penis is 100 percent a deal breaker

I think youre misconstruing my intentions. Im curious as to what people ultimately use as the basis to perceive someone as either straight or gay. Personally, I love the female aesthetic, but am disgusted by vaginas. And Id be open to receiving sexual pleasure from a guy, but only if they looked very feminine and no penis play was involved. I dislike genitals in general, and am far more concerned with facial features when it comes to sexual attraction. Based on this criteria, I dont know where I stand on the straight-to-gay spectrum.

Thats why I wanted to see what people would consider more/less gay and more/less straight, in a scenario where the genitals didnt match the appearances of the prospects. Is it gay to be a straight male whod rather have sexual relations with a guy who looks female? Is it straight for him to rather have sexual relations with a woman who looks like a male? Who gets the final say? Is it all arbitrary? Wheres the line drawn at the genitals, or at the looks? Must both matter, or only one?

Is it all arbitrary?

Yes.

Pus_N_Pecans posted...

Yes.

So really (and as I suspected), both straight and gay are loosely defined concepts. It sounds like were in agreement here.
