Orion, you make the unfounded statements.  Back them up.  I don't need to "do the research".  I've asked, simply, for one documented act of the revenge sodomy you talk about.  One.   Is it that hard to justify what you say?  Maybe no one has ever called you to account for random unsupported statements.  I have.

And being pretty well versed with the literature on and about Freud (and I read Freud, not the classic comic books) I was curious about "Merril D. Smith" as I have never heard of him/her.  And so I googled "Merril D. Smith" and found....NOTHING.  Did you misremember the name of your source?  Because in trying to read your "support" I got borsht.

Now, for my argument:   I repeat, I know of NO Freudian reference to anal sex and power issues.   I think you made it up.   Indeed, that concept is pretty much directly opposite what Freud says in the famous 1908 paper "Character and Anal Erotism" where he lays out the foundation for what is generally known today as "anal-retentive" character.  There is no link I have ever read in Freud's own writings that supports your statement.  Now I have not read all of Freud.  If I missed something, please, please enlighten me?  

Pure and simple:  Support your arguments.  Or as we say in the halls of academe:  Put up or shut up.

DarkSteven, my point is that the statement of a conquering army publicly sodomizing (or watching its leaders sodomize) the generals of the conquered army is a historical libel that has so far as I know NO historical fact behind it.  I know that "libel" is often repeated by Turks against the Persians, and by the way, it is also said about the Turks, by the Persians.  And it was a libel used to "prove" the savageness (and argue for the eradication of) certain western American Indian tribes in "accounts" of U.S. Cavalry officers.  But it is a libel -- a falsehood -- used to perpetuate myths of violence about certain people or events.  I have never found a reliable eye-witness account of such activity.

In contrast, here is a wartime activity of the victors over the vanquished of which we have ample contemporaneous historical accounts:  Sewing the fields of the vanquished with "salt" (or lye or some other alkalid or damaging salt) to inhibit the ability of the conquered to grow crops.  It was common for the Assyrians to do so.  It is referred to in the Old Testament (although I would not rely only on biblical sources, but there is contemporaneous support).  Notably, there are accounts of the sacking of Carthage and the "salting of the earth" at the end of the Third Punic War when Rome defeats the Phoenecians at Carthage.

My point?  If this public sodomy which Orion is so fond of really existed, why can't he cite a single historic account of it?   I suspect that his "proof", just like those Iranian-Americans proof, is in impassioned belief, but not fact.

Why would performing anal sex determine a persons sexuality?




RainydayNE -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/3/2009 10:14:14 PM)

if a guy who wants to have anal sex with a female should be suspected of being gay, what about the female who wants him to perform anal sex on her? =p if attraction to anal sex is some magical determiner of something, then is something wrong with HER too? =p
this is ... oy...

labelling is silly.




Vanityfull -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/3/2009 11:38:12 PM)

lol i always thought that about str8 guys always seeking anal
quote:

ORIGINAL: kittinSol

In psychology, and particularly in psychoanalysis (pun not meant), it's frequently suggested that a  man's desire for anal sex is a homoerotic impulse. Much to the annoyance of straigher than straight guys who like to think of themselves as the pinnacle of heterosexuality [8D] .




subboi3382 -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/4/2009 1:56:20 AM)

interesting i have found many gay guys that like to give but that the vast majority of bi guys just want to receive
quote:

ORIGINAL: DesFIP

I'm curious as to why you believe as many gay males like to give as do enjoy receiving. In the frustrated words of one of my old friends about other gay males "Everyone wants to be fucked, nobody wants to fuck". He was a bottom obviously (pun intended).

Beyond that, the definition of heterosexual is attraction to and sexual activities with the opposite sex.




BarbieDollMaid -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/4/2009 7:47:53 AM)

Something that is often advised to TGwomen planning GRS (gender reassignment surgery) and that I feel was the best advice I ever had before I had my grs. "don't have grs thinking men will want to have sex with you" they want you to fuck them! I don't know how many of my tgsisters would agree with that but my own experiance when I was preop and dating men was they all expected, and really beleived that is what TGwomen do. Another thing I noticed. Men that knew I was tg and had the surgery could not perform in the "missionary position" which for me was the most fleeting of all sex acts. I don't think there is a man out there seeking tgwomen preops that will say he's gay even though getting pegged by that dick is the motivating factor!. (imho) Herein lies the secret as to way so many tgwomen can "fool" guys. the guys hardly ever suggest having missionary position sex. For me it's all so many many years ago.

maybe it's because the ones affixing the labels are supposedly heterosexual and would never attach a negative to themselves.

on another note, i find the whole thing pretty hot. i didn't always feel like this, but far be it from me to deny a man his wish.[:D]

Andalusite -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/4/2009 2:08:04 PM)

Emporor, maybe I should have said "taunting" instead of "accusing," but I can't go back and edit the OP. In any case "incorrectly claimed in a derogatory fashion" seems a little too wordy! It's not that homosexuality is a crime, or anything, but it's a little annoying to have people try to insist that you are something that you aren't (or aren't something that you are, for that matter). As to the historical accounts, there are plenty of documented atrocities that have occurred in war even in modern times, without eyewitness documentation, and often the victors try to cover things up. I doubt there was a formal ritual about the sodomy, if it happened, but there were plenty of times when the women of a town were raped in front of their men in order to humiliate both, before the men were killed. Those weren't necessarily documented by the winners, either. [8|]

Thanks, porcelaine. :)

Vanityfull, yeah, I've even had gay men (who you wouldn't think would care about it) and straight men claim that I can't be bisexual unless I like men and women equally well, or have done a particular sex act, or have a boyfriend and a girfriend simultaneously, or whatever. Some of them have also claimed that all bisexuals (including me) are greedy, slutty, indecisive, unable to make a commitment, etc., even though I was in a monogamous relationship at the time. Nobody argues with me that I can't be heteroflexible. [;)]




Vanityfull -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/4/2009 4:52:15 PM)

i prefer to call myself a fag with some breeder tendances[8D]

Sex and Conquest: Gendered Violence, Political Order, and the European Conquest of the Americas by Richard C. Trexler


"Character and Anal Eroticism" in The Standard Edition of the Complete Psychological Works vol. 9

"Sex Without Consent: Rape and Sexual Coercion in America" Merril D. Smith

"Encyclopedia of Rape" Merril D. Smith

There are a few for you. With your insulting, and condescending attitude, I am pretty much done with you.




MarsBonfire -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/4/2009 6:24:45 PM)

So, just wanting the incredibly intimate penetration... the intense tightness... and the wanting to fuck with 0 chance of preganacy... is somehow a "tell" for being a closet cocksucker? Really?




LadyPact -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/4/2009 6:36:23 PM)

I'd think if that were true, the world would be a much more interesting place, at least for Me.




LPslittleclip -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/4/2009 7:59:15 PM)

gay used to mean happy and a fag was a cigarette. i am attracted to the opposite sex not to my own sex. so what. i don't judge others by how they enjoy sex. as far as enjoying anal yes i enjoy anal, again so what. the American culture has put up such a bunch of barriers to enjoyment that its a wonder any of us manage to have any at all. my opinion is stop with the segregation and pigeonholing of the populace and just accept and tolerate the world and just be happy.




DarkFury -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/4/2009 8:54:42 PM)

The sad part is the stigma of a man wanting anal from a woman is still considered a gay activity.




LadyHibiscus -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/4/2009 8:59:52 PM)

The sad part is PERVS having these kinds of incredibly prejudiced views.  I know, there is no reason for the bdsm or Gorean populations to be any different from the world at large, but I find it sad when one edge group cannot accept another, but has the need to stigmatize it, spread warped stories, and spread libel.




LadyPact -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/4/2009 9:00:59 PM)

But wouldn't the very fact that he is with a woman at the very least have him fall into the term bisexual if anything?  The problem that I have with the terminology discussed here is that it isn't even accurate.




DarkFury -> RE: Men, anal sex, and accusations of being gay (4/4/2009 9:07:56 PM)

In my opinion I wouldn't think so simply as he is with a woman who is giving him pleasure through anal much in the same way a man will give pleasure to a woman as he is preforming anal on her. As I see it, if a male was having anal with another male then the likelihood that will fall in the realm of homosexual activity. Just let me also say that this is my concept and belief.
