Bangkoktraveler Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 What about guys who can't get it up any more ... do they lean more toward being gay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 Testosterone and oestrogen have nothing to do with sex drive...jeez, what a weird thing to claim...you can not say having less testosterone means less interest in sex...aggression is not related to sex...and if you think it is, then you have a problem! Also how do you explain the enormous sexual appetites of ladies, who actually have a far greater capacity for sexual behaviour than men...and far less testosterone.... The endocrine system, of which testosterone and oestrogen are a part, helps to determine sexual characteristics, amongst other things. A lot, but by no means all, homosexuals appear to effected by this. A lot of gay men are feminine, a lot of lesbians very masculine. The rest might be effected by environmental cues/experiences...example, the girl who has been emotionally hurt by men may seek affection from members of her own gender, as it is safer. So in my oh so humble opinion, a large chunk of homosexuality is genetically based, the rest is environmental and/or a mix of both. As with the majority of human behaviour there is not one explanation for all behaviour witnessed. As humans we seek to fit things into nice neat catagories, but it is rarely possible to do with people as so many variables are in play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sukhumvit Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 Scratch beneath the surface and there are a lot of grey areas with regards to sex. One of my friends has told me that he had a homosexual experience in the UK. I know that he's been with at least one ladyboy in Bangkok although he claimed not to know at the time. He's happily married and I'd regard him as straight. He is just a bit horny. He used to frequent a knocking shop in the UK too. Another guy, who I knew was into cross dressing, has started working as a transvestite escort. I kid you not. He's in his 40's and used to be a mortgage broker. Actually he looks like quite a passable woman in drag. He claims not to be gay and has had lots of girlfriends. I don't know one way or the other however he did put on a dvd late one night when we both very drunk which was just guys sucking each other's dicks. I made my excuses and left. A third bloke I know is in his 50's and has been married over 30 years with several grown up children. He writes books and stuff. I've read some of his ramblings and there's a theme in a lot of it - gay sex, male rape, men changing in changing rooms and commenting on knob sizes etc. He's clearly fascinated by homosexuality and he's currently undergoing therapy for depression. Clearly he's repressing something or is dissatisfied about at least one area in his life. I don't bother gay guys if they don't bother me. Simple as that. When I was in my teens a group of us used to go to a disco which was shared with the local gay/lesbian community, purely because of the music they played. No problems. Didn't get any gay guys coming onto us. If people respect each other and make sensible appraisals of the appropriate boundary then there should be no issue. Having said that you will find that some in the gay/lesbian community can be very bolshy about sexuality. One lesbian I used to know told me that she'd had relationships with men when she was younger but that now she hated bisexuals as they can't make their minds up. Go figure.

Topcatta Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 Ahh this is so BS that gays/lesbo's judge bisexuals as not making a choice! For me fucking women is just for fun but the real meat is with my man. I do not call myself bi, who cares anyway what 'box' you fall into? But that gays who are boxed in by mainstream society are judging so harschly, is such nonsense. As is said above, everybody has a diverse sexuality. Interesting about your friends, Sukhumwit. Must have also to do what culture you are in since I dont recognize this pattern in Holland. Except for with young gays sometimes having difficulty to let their surroundings know.

Guest Posted November 2, 2006 Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 I agree sexuality is not a clear cut issue, hence my post about a biological component to some and an environmental cause for others. Certainly some Psychologists take the view that no one is 100% straight or gay, we all fall somewhere in between. I'm not convinced about this view, based on my own thinking and experience, but i'll post it anyway for the sake of discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
