Would you date a woman?

[Whatisthis543]

Chatting to my friend tonight (who is gay and this is relevant to the thread)

She was saying that now she’s single again she thinks that things are a lot more open and more women are open to dating women even if they’re not ‘defining themselves’ as gay. I thought it was an interesting one. I’m in a hetero relationship and have never really thought about it, but have you? Would you?

I married for 16 years to my exh and never thought i was anything but straight until a drunken kiss with my also straight best friend changed that for both of us.
Before the thought of sex with a woman was most definitely not something I was interested in but that soon changed !!
My dw and I have now been together 7 years and married for 3.

I don't really know what I would label myself but that doesn't really matter.
I didn't have a clue I could be attracted to a woman or want a relationship with one but it is definitely the best relationship I have ever had.

Well no. No one heterosexual would.

Yeah I would. In fact I think I am actually probably gonna come out in 2021.

Had a horrendous marriage that I am divorced from now, relationship with a bloke who turned out to be bisexual. And now when I look at men I feel nothing but when I look at women I feel different.
I haven’t got time for a relationship at the moment but I would like to date and maybe start experimenting a bit sexually☺️

So yeah think I might actually be gay now haha!

I would because I'm bi

I'm straight. But if I split with husband and already had kids, I'm not sure I'd have a preference to men. Would be down to the person I don't see any reason I would be drawn to a man just becAuse he is a Man anymore.

No way. never had any tendencies to view women in any way but, just women.

@inchoccyheaven do you like the look of other women now or do you love your wife just for her not sex? Would you still date a man of wasn't married? Sorry I relate to you a bit but slightly confused really. X

In general i actually think women are more attractive than men (eg. I look at couples I see out and about or even my friends and mostly think the women are more attractive than their partners). I enjoy the company of women and have had a couple of drunken kisses as a teen but have never felt true sexual attraction to a woman. I think if I split with DH I would just want to be single for the foreseeable future.

No.

Yes l would. Yes l have.

I always considered myself straight until my 30s (40s now) when l was beautifully and deliciously seduced by another woman when working away from home for several weeks. It was a true renaissance. I totally misread the invite for a pizza and a film and pleased l did.

These days l just regard myself as “sexual”; no prefix required. I’m happy to date either gender.

Yes, I would ask a woman out, the only caviat l would make is that l have misread signals from other women which can be awkward.

Anyone interesting in looking at themselves in a little more detail, might like to look up the Kinsey scale. Quick to do and can be an eye opener. 👭

No. I’m not attracted to women and the thought of being intimate with one turns my stomach.

No. Women are physically beautiful but I dont want to get in to bed with one.

I'm not ideologically opposed, but I've never found a woman remotely sexually attractive so I think it's highly unlikely.

@santabaybee I am attracted to my wife as well as love her as I was my exh. I enjoyed sex with him but enjoy it even more with dw. Right now the thought of having sex with someone with a penis makes me feel a bit icky but I also can't imagine having sex with anyone else but my dw so who knows.
I am possibly demisexual. Unless I split up with my dw then for me it's irrelevant what label I should have.

Why on earth was givememorewine's post deleted? I'm gay and don't think people should be censored for so little. This person wouldn't have gay sex because they go by that interpretation of the bible, well, fine

Nope and simply just because I'm not wired that way, I just don't feel a compatibility

I would be as likely to have a romantic relationship with a woman as with a man should oh and I ever split

This thread made me question some things.

Oh well, I wouldn't want to change my life with DH so there's no use actual use, I guess.

It's still interesting to read those answers.

No way. 🙅

Have done, would again.

No. The idea of being intimate with another woman is not pleasant to me.

Because without context, it sounded very homophobic. It's possible that the poster isn't homophobic but there was no context or explanation as to why they said that, and that kind of comment, just plopped in there, looked like quite a goady post, and seemed to imply that same sex attraction is bad. Which is homophobic. That's my take on it.

I’ve always found women more attractive than men but I’ve never had a relationship with one. I’ve had no more than a snog with one to be honest. I would definitely get it on with a woman but would I have a relationship with a woman? Fuck, no. Women are completely mental, and I say that as one.

No. I’m heterosexual. A shame in some ways as I’m eternally single and get on better with women, but I’m just not attracted to them.

It's interesting to see that many posters have said yes in a serial way but not in a relationship snuggle on the sofa way - I'm probably the opposite!

I think women are beautiful and soft and probably nice to cuddle up to, but not sure the rest is for me really.

I don't really think that anyone is 100% gay or straight though, I think sexual attraction is separate but I think I could fall in love with either a man or a woman (and I consider myself straight - married to a man)q
