Are there any advantages to being a homosexual rather than a heterosexual?
-
Bro-jobs. It's so easy to get a much need bj when you're gay. Not getting oral sex is the number one complaint I hear from my straight friends while with Grinder stress relief is just around the corner… ::)

Honestly, when I saw your question I thought of a comedy sketch with Jim Carrey (early in his career when he was still part of "In Living Color).
You can check it out on youtube; it's titled "Over-confident gay guy goes to a fast food restaurant". I'd post the link, but uh…I don't think the rules allows for such? (Not entirely sure, new here). It's worth checking out for the laughs.
In all seriousness, I really don't see any benefits of being gay - especially when you're born into an Asian family who has some expectation of you to continue the family line. You should be saying "there are no differences", but we're not at the point. I'd probably give a very facetious and comedic response.

you get the best of both worlds..you can be physically strong yet you can be attuned to the feminine side

As a bisexual who only dated women for two decades, I can't tell you how important this difference is: no risk of pregnancy!
Makes a big difference. -
Your partner cannot get pregnant. Unplanned pregnancy is a huge mess.
No periods, period. Well, not true for lesbians, of course, but they can synchronise.
You can always see, whether your partner enjoyed sex or not.
Similar mindset - it's easier to understand the person of same gender, usually.
If you're out, then no pestering with getting married and having children from relatives.
So, there are some advantages. Whether they outweight disadvantages is entirely diffrent matter.

I think that one of the advantages of being gay is that you can discover the truth behind couples, i'd say when you are planning on the longrun, most gay couples find their "soul mates" if I can say. Indeed, gay couples tends to endure more than heterosexual couples. Even if both can be based on cheating, heterosexuals are more likely to cheat on their partner.
That's what I think

I always answer that being gay makes you not give a fuck about other people's opinions. As a gay person you will be heavily judged by people around so you have to grow really big balls to defend yourself.

From a philosophical perspective, being a member of a minority opens our eyes more to the invisible issues of discrimination and bigotry when we otherwise may have been more blind and ignorant.
This x 100
also this affects those close to you as well.. they become more open minded too - that is my experience

I agree!

You cant get pregnant….

Are there any benefits in practice? I mean honestly, if I had the choice to choose before born, I would've chosen to be straight I'm afraid.

In straight orgies, straight male actors need to be "careful" not to touch any dick by mistake, plus, they are not particularly fond of watching other men in action
In gay orgies, everything goes! everywhere you look, touch, you enjoy! -
heterosexual men have to work super hard to get sex with women and are constantly rejected
for the most parthomosexual men are able to find other men to have sex with with very little effort and are rarely rejected because the whole process is much more transparent from the beginning
for the most parttl;dr
gays have more and better sexAre you trying to stereotype the "female" gender that are not promiscuous?
Some girls are just as horny as guys. -
men are easier to hookup with + you don't have to worry about pregnancy
there are a lot of positives to being gay if you live in a tolerant democracy

easier to rise a child :cheesy2:

@herbert967 and rejection is a constant element of being gay for all the non-stereotypical men in the gay community, and rejection from straight men for gays is very common, just like for a lot of straight men with girls. We don't win this "kind and open-minded" challenge, not anymore I'm afraid since Grindr appeared to give a mask to all the assholes between us.
The only advantage in my opinion is philosophical, unless you're extra-masculine, muscular, urban, white and privileged with a western culture (I mean, capitalist). Then it can be a lot of fun for you, although your love life may be pretty scarce if you fancy one

@spam17 Yes when I came out after 34 years of marraige (my wife passed away, I was able to be who I really am, a man who is romantically attracted to men. I am 69years, so coming out has it's challenges. When I was young, there was very little support or understanding of the gay community. There really was not much of a community. The question of whether being gay was a choice, or an internal inevitability was not asked out loud. The majority of people when asked would answer it was a choice, and a perverted one at that. I now fully believe that I was born this way, and the more I open up to this, the happier I get. So yes,I believe for me there is an advantage being homosexual, because that if who I am. It's the real me, and I love being gay. I love acting gay. I'm not a obnoxious gay person, but I love sharing my gayness, if you will, with those I meet.
