Would You Be Straight if You Had The Choice?
-
I don't think so… But I can't judge who will choose to be straight.
-
im happy with who i am today, i cant imagine changing that. i bet a lot of the people i know i would have never met if i was straight. plus being gay adds an interesting perspective on things. not saying being straight wouldnt but gay people often have the choice of coming out which adds to the layers
-
I detest children, enjoy the absence of contraceptives and worship at the altar of Dick. It's a solid no for me.
-
sometimes i think it might be easier but i love being gay.
-
maybe not straight, but would love to be Bi, it's the best scenario for me
-
It would be easier to be straight in my homphobic and transphobic country, no doubt, but no.
-
My life would be much easier so yes.

yes

Woo, thanks for the honesty. I'm black and masc. I think I like my queerness (and my pansexuality), but it's often not read as visible as race and gender. Undeniably, that's given me a degree of privilege within black and non-black communities.
I would yes.
Because I'm black as well.
I feel being black and gay, I'm forced to pick a side. As usually the gay media circuit doesn't accept men who look like me. Most of the black and African cultures do not accept homosexuality at all. So it's tough trying to be under both of those tropes.
For example, right now I'm picking my gay/queer side.
But society sees me as a black man, and black men usually are supposed to be masculine and promote this straight image.
I'm a feminine gay guy, so it's just so puzzling and confusing.
Also I seem to be attracted and crush on straight men and straight agendas more than gay.
I'd rather just be straight.

I’d be content either way. It’s who someone is - gay, straight, bi…whatever. Sure, it’d be easier to live a “normal” life being straight, but if you think about it realistically: what they find attractive in the opposite sex, we find attractive in the same sex.. so we’re all experiencing the same feeling. I’d be fine being straight just like i am fine being gay because the feeling comes naturally.

No. I love men to much ;D
-
yah why not and bear children and build a family..
-
one thing i really like with being gay is that i think gays have much more interesting sex lives and more open minded approach to sex. i mean i'll never REALLY know how the sex life is for straight people, but things like threesomes, groupsex and open relationship seems to be more common for gays than for straights. and i really like. :hug2: :surprise: :bukkake: :banana2: :bsex:

Nope. I'd rather become bi/pan.
-
No. I feel lucky to be gay. Now I am living in Australia, but I grew up in India. It is harder for gay people there but the lives of straight people seem worse somehow. Even in Australia, straight people's lives are so conventional and boring. Straight married men are dead.

I can't picture "straight" since there are a lot of great guys out there. I could imagine the upside of wanting to sleep with anyone who comes along, though.

The questions about the "red or the blue pill" is very common in LGBTq people.
I think if i had the choise years ago, when I was a teenager, I wished I could have been straight. It would have been so much simplier especially in high school.
i have grown up however to learn to accept myself and now I wouldnt change my sexual orientation.

I'm on the same page here. I used to have these thoughts when I was a teenager.
I'm wondering, though.. Do straight people ever feel any (social or whatsoever) pressure to 'learn to accept themselves' ? -

Of course they do. think of all of the industries that would shut down if people were satisfied with themselves.
There are straight men who: go bald, get fat, don't get the careers that they want, never get to play professional sports, get turned down by women….

When my mother was alive, I had to keep any gay feelings secret as she was a major homophobe…
But while I'm currently in a relationship with a woman, I prefer to be bi instead of fully straight.
