2 questions about sexuality

[Berocco43]

Just curious (as a gay woman myself and supporting a friend whose coming out later in life)

1. what is your sexual orientation?
2. regardless of your answer above- have you ever had a romantic or sexual interaction with the same sex?

1. at the age of 53 I still haven’t figured that out yet

2. No. I have met plenty of women I’ve been attracted to but have never had the opportunity for a relationship with one.

1. Absolutely 100% heterosexual and could probably be described as Demi sexual (although I hate that label) because I can only have sex when I have an emotional connection.
2. No. I’ve never looked at a woman in a sexual way. I can see a woman is attractive but they do nothing for me as far as being attracted.

Unfortunately I’m solely attracted to men despite thinking most of them are complete twats.

I'm straight.
I've never wanted to have sex with a woman or ever been romantically attracted to a woman.
I like the fact that men are different. I have a particular sort of man I find attractive and no woman could compete with that.

I'm bisexual.

I have had sex with women although nowhere near as much as I have with men. I find women more sexually attractive than men because well, they are! But I only have full on romantic feelings about men. I've been on dates with women but it's never gone anywhere because I don't really want a girlfriend. There's not enough penises in the relationship for me.

Straight
I can appreciate a beautiful woman and had a brief encounter with a woman when I was younger but it didn’t go very far. The thought of sex with a woman doesn’t do anything for me unfortunately as men can be a pain in the arse. My Mums a lesbian though and she couldn’t contemplate sex with a man. So complete opposites really. Apart from her lifelong crush on Cliff Richard 🙄🤢

Probably bi, only going through this now in my forties. And yes, done stuff with women before but relationships only with men.

Straight and no I’ve never been attracted in any way to another woman

1. Straight woman
2. No.

Aww ❤
I'm glad you found your thing

Thanks for the thread op - very interesting, I was worried about commenting initially but this is showing the complexity in labels/sexuality

Heterosexual.
Have " experimented with women in a threesome a couple of times in my 30s/ 40s) I'm 66 now.
My youngest daughter ( age 32) got married 10 years ago.. had a son with husband.. came out as gay 3 years ago . Divorced ( still great friends) been in a relationship with her g/f for two years. Happiest she's ever been and her MH improved 100%.

I’m the opposite, in that I’m attracted to men as people but put off by the penises.

I generally say I’m bisexual but who knows, given the above. Am attracted to women but too scared to approach them.

1. bi Maybe pan
2. have had sex and romance and marriage with both men and women. Ex wife was a piece of work so didn’t date women much after her. If my husband dies first I’d be open to dating either.

I don’t like to label myself because I’m honestly not sure. I’ve been in long term relationships with women though and have dated men.
I actually suspect I’m somewhere on the demisexual/ asexual spectrum as the youngsters would say as can take it or leave it really! I never really get crushes and although I enjoy sex I can happily go without it and it doesn’t bother me at all.
For now I’m happily single and not worrying about it as I approach 40 - maybe I’ll fully discover myself this decade!

1. Lesbian
2. So, yes

I spent almost 40 years of my life believing I was heterosexual: loved men. Married one. Got divorced after almost 10 years.
Then I met my now wife. Wow. Turns out I'm....massively in love with my wife. Absolutely NOT second rate.

Not sure what my sexuality is, not interested in labelling it. Have had sex with both men and women. Mostly men, but I suspect some of that is because they're more easily available.

Oh my god, we need to find Emily!

Super straight woman.

Never kissed or had any sexual feelings towards a woman. If watching porn would prefer to see two men, as seeing naked female bodies doesn’t do anything for me. Sometimes imagine my (male) DP with another man. Think that still makes me straight.

I think your questions are strangely probing and irrelevant.
I treat all my friends for who they are,

1. Nobody's business, its what I feel that counts, and how your friend feels is what matters.
2. Obviously in life there's 100% either way and also lots in between. For some reason some people seek security in 2 extremes even though somewhere in between would be more accurate for a lot of people. Does your friend feel like she has to make a choice and come out as 100% gay? Does that worry her?

Are you hoping for tales of lesbian sex OP? 🙄🚩

1. Straight
2. Wasn't certain when younger. Became certain when I had a couple of short-lived relationships with women. In typical fashion, now in our 50's we're all still friends.

1. Probably Asexual, just about lol hate labels

2 Yes although never had a relationship

Bi, I suppose, although not a fan of labels.
I married a man so people assume I'm straight.
Yes, was with a woman for a couple of years but generally prefer men.
