Poll: Would you change your sexuality?

[DSK-]

I'm more than comfortable with who I am and who I am attracted to.

Is it reversible?

Because I'm fine with being a guy, but I think it would be very educational for any person to put themselves in the opposite sexes shoes for a day even.

Also BOOBS YAY

Could be. Depends how far you're willing to sell your soul to the devil. BWA HA HA.

In all seriousness, it's really up to you. I'm just curious to see if people would consider it, and it seems the vast majority would not, which is a good thing! You're all comfortable with yourselves.

I actually would do it if it was reversible. Though I am 100% straight (never been attracted to men), I think from a pure standpoint of curiosity, I would love to be a woman for a day or two. I think I could learn a lot, and it would help me with a lot of my misunderstandings about how to approach women.

But I am completely comfortable with my gender and sexual orientation.

Im normal person and i'm happy with it.

That's nice, but what's your sexuality? (PROTIP: heteronormativity fails)

Queer here, and no desire to change.

Ask yourself what the definition of normal is and really think about it. First off, normal is overrated, so don't associate if you can. Secondly, now please don't take this the wrong way, homosexuality is not typical and consequently not normal.

Just so you know, accepting this fact does not change your rights or your standing in life but disagreeing with it essentially means your fighting a dictionary.

Although now that I think about, does heterosexuality constitute a "normal person"? Hmmm...

You could say it's an aspect of a normal (average) person but they could be atypical in different areas.

I think typical and atypical would be less vague than normal vs not normal if we are basing it on averages and majorities.

True. You see when I read the initial comment (the one I failed to quote), I was thinking in context of sexual orientation... but he said "normal person" which carries greater connotations and is definitely subject to interpretation.

Being Bi-Sexual is the best of both worlds

The worst I have to put up with is whenever I'm dating a woman, my friends and cohorts say to me "Oh! But I thought you were gay!" Then I sight and explain that we've been over this millions of times before.

OT: Jump back a few years and I would've sworn on dead animals past that I straighter than Gene Simmonds, my my my how that has changed xD Now I wouldn't change myself for the world.

 

[Eclectic Dreck]

I am completely satisfied in my sexuality. Besides, the notable alternatives would simply create more drama that what is natural in a relationship and I don't envy anyone who must put up with such nonsense for love.

Heh, I remember when I was a wee boy (teen really) my cousin (who is roughly the same age) overheard our parents talking about someone who was bi. We got the vibe that they were slightly disgusted by it, but my cousin just blurts out "lucky bastard... no matter where he goes he can at least have something to look at".

He might have stretched the benefits of being bi a tad bit, but it was pretty funny (also note, he has a thick London accent, can't specify which one though, that might have added to the humour for me).

I'm happy being straight. I like women... they're pretty
My mate is gay and once told me that, if it were possible, he'd change to being straight because there's still so much of a stigma and struggle with being gay. I think he was being a tad dramatic; as far as I can tell, being gay is extremely accepted by our generation (not so much our parents', though). But I can't say that confidently without being in his shoes

That's probably his problem though. It's not our generation that's the problem. It's all the old fogeys who are still in power.

Just noting that in this thread, and a few before, there seems to be a lot more Bisexual people then homosexual. It's just an observation on my part, but I would have thought it to be blatantly the other way round... them statistics I've read in those stupid gossip mags are bull.

 

[Denamic]

I don't see the point with some of those options.
If you want to be gay, you're already gay.
But bisexual, however, could be a logical choice.
I mean, you retain your current preferences, be it gay or straight, while still widening your strike zone.

 

[Valkyrie101]

Didn't look at the poll properly, and voted hetero, which I already am. Therefore, should be "comfortable as I am".

 

[Cazza]

I'm good the way Iam.

I believe most people are fine the way they are. Some might to "fit in". It's sad but very understandable.

Your post tends to suggest you think sexuality is a choice. Am I correct in thinking that? Or have I misunderstood what you're saying?
