ORIGINAL: SuzeCheri On another thread a poster said that since he was a straight male he found the idea of a man blowing another man repulsive and disgusting. He also said that he couldn't really get as close to a gay male as a friend because of this difference in orientation. This isn't a rare thing, this attitude, it's quite common in fact and it's usually coming from straight men directed at gay men. I'm a lesbian, I have zero sexual or physical attraction towards men, but I don't find man-on-man sex to be repulsive or disgusting, nor do I find hetero sex to be disgusting, etc. I don't watch it, because it's got no appeal to me, but it doesn't disgust me. I have discussed it with straight or gay male friends without any issue. And I wouldn't consider a friendship with a hetero person to be limited or have "a cap on how deep it can go" based on their sexual preference. I have a few questions on this idea that I'd like to put out for discussion. So why do you think there is such a strong reaction? Why, in your opinion, would anybody find it repulsive? And why is this attitude so predominantly a hetero male attitude? Would you feel you couldn't become as close a friend with a person with a different sexual orientation as you could with a person with the same orientation as you? Also the format of the statement bothers me, it's as if what doesn't turn you on has to be repulsive merely as a consequence of your sexual orientation. Do you see it this way, or is it a consequence of personal bias & prejudice? Thanks. C. All aspects of human behavior are caused by either nature and nurture, and when it comes to how males feel about homosexuality, I believe both come into play. In my thinking, no human is 100% female or 100% male, neither are they 100% gay or 100% straight (or 100% sub or 100% dom). We are all a combination of all the above, with some born to behave according to the classic male, straight, dom behavior, and others to behave according to the classic female, gay, sub behavior, and of course every combination in between. Nurture comes into play with how individual people are "taught" to become more aware of the opposite (dual) sides of their nature. For example, a straight male understanding and embracing his sub (feminine) side; or a Gay female who learns to enhance her dominant side. Prejudicial thinking about gays or females or subs or doms or whatever comes from a lack of ability to see none of us are all one thing. We are just not that one sided. All of us are a combination of male, female, dom, sub, straight, gay. It is my opinion that being able to understand the duality of your own nature and nurture, and to enhance those areas that are not well developed (for instance the manly dom who seeks to embrace his softer side) makes you a more well rounded and enlightened individual. But then, my father was a lesbian, so I understand these things.
