Do gay men and women sometimes have heterosexual fantasies?

I know a few women find gay sex arousing, just curious if it works the other way around. Do gay men and women sometimes find heterosexual sex arousing?

In my case, very much yes.

SophiaBrown · 05/03/2025 04:01

I think yes, many homosexuals are actually curious.

My lesbian friend occasionally cheats on her long time partner because in her words “Sometimes we just need a bit of cock” so I suspect she is bisexual, as well as a cheater.

I suspect those who do (I’m bi) are more likely to be bi rather than gay. But l thought l was straight until my 30s.

I've heard this a few times from lesbian women. I find it hilarious

What made you switch to bi? I find a lot of women to be stunning but would never want to have sex with a woman

I did have a close (male) gay friend in the 1980s (when I was single) who was perma single, but had one night stands once every couple of months with men he met in clubs. But he said to me several times that if he was straight he would defo be all over me. One time he said 'if I have a few too many one night, your luck may be in!' I did say 'yours wouldn't coz I don't fancy you!' 😂

So yeah he was gay/into men, but did think about women occasionally.

Yep I'm a gay woman and sometimes fantasise about sex with a man. I've had sexual relationships with men before I realised I was gay. I don't miss being with a man and find women in general very sexually attractive. So they're just fantasies. My wife is everything I could ever want and need, I'm very lucky.

ChangingHistory · 07/03/2025 21:24

Wow I was not expecting these answers.

I'm straight and have zero attraction to or fantasies about women so I'd have expected it to be the same the other way around.

Maybe sexuality is more of a spectrum than I thought.

Im bi so your all at risk 😂.

I’m not sure l switched, merely discovered myself, when responding to a casual pizza and video invite, when working away from home l’m told l gave off signals, l wasn’t aware of that though, but l had a lovely time.

I was married to a man for years before I “came out “ as a lesbian. I never have fantasies about men but probably because I know enough about the reality which now feels like another lifetime.

Mayichange · 13/04/2025 11:09

I think am waiting for the kind of invitation that @StarlightLady had. I have been married, I have had children. But I do find myself thinking of women more than men. I watch woman to woman porn.
