I don't care. People can be whomever they want to be~
Though I don't believe in calling yourself completely straight or completely gay,
but I'm not comfortable with calling myself bisexual, either.
That's just not how I see myself.

I'm not attracted to women but I can fall in love with one, I think.
No reason for labels. I can like anyone I want,
and so can everyone else.

Also, Odette sounds female. That seems obvious to me, though I could be wrong laugh

Did you read what I just wrote? Or are you just simple disagreeing with me? I've never come across with any people who make an issue of homosexuality. Except some idiots who make an issue of everything.

I think it's homosexuals who make an issue of other people making an issue of it even though people don't really make an issue of it anymore. Kinda like feminists, though radical feminists are pretty rare nowadays (since it's not really an issue anymore). Oh, except in some countries (or in Islam).


I'm not saying you are one of those people who particularly make an issue of homosexuality. But just because you (and apparently the people in your life) don't, it doesn't mean the whole world is the same. Gay people have legitimate reasons to act like it's an issue -- because it is. It's not like gay people are delusional when everyone loves them. I mean, here in the U.S., we can't even agree that the law should not sanction discrimination against gay people in the workplace. That's just one example of how the rest of society, not gay people, has made homosexuality an issue.

Quote from 狂気
Eh, what? I don't get it. Are you bisexual or what?


No, I'm a female who is sexually attracted to males. It just so happens I prefer (straight) males who have tastes, hobbies, and manners that are seen as more traditionally feminine. There are straight guys who like tomboys, aren't there? It's similar to that.

At any rate, I'm straight and I'm attracted to guys who dress and act like women. It's not unique to gay men.

Whoa, wait, what? O_O

IFFY!



Well, according to brutelord, this homosexual relationship contains the masculine and feminine type. So....I think Odette might be in the closet. laugh

I mean come on, let's face it, Odette is attracted to guys who are feminine....

Odette is a seme who likes uke. laugh It's not unique to gay men, it is one of the defining characteristics of gay men. Same as saying, "Well, I am not a coffee drinker, but I do drink 2 cups per day."

Jaysus, this is why I should stay away from Homosexuality-themed threads on open forums... Something always ends up annoying me. Something homophobic, that is. But I can't escape this sense of duty that I ought to participate in this discussion, if nothing else then to refute said homophobia.

People, anyone can be attracted to ANYONE, there are no rules and there's no freaking guidebook that everyone has to follow. Life is life. And if Odette's a woman attracted to guys who display traditionally feminine qualities, well why can't she be? That doesn't automatically make her a closeted gay guy. -_- I mean seriously, that's like saying that a guy who likes short-haired, tough women is actually a lesbian woman himself. Or something. It just doesn't compute no matter how you put it, the whole assumption is silly.

Also, this whole idea (re: BoxBox) that guys who cross-dress etc are always uke? (Let alone gay?) Uh, WRONG. There are STRAIGHT guys who enjoy gender-bending, too, and there are gay guys who do as well. And they don't always have to bottom; they can be tops. Very aggressive tops, even. (Er... Take it from me? I mean, I used to have a guy-friend who was one. Kittenish out of the bedroom, but everyone knew he was downright carnivorous within it. *_*)

Please stop trying to have all these pointless blanket judgments. People are people. (Like the Depeche Mode hit, lol. Damn, I just gave away my age. biggrin )

What I mean to say is... People don't always fit into stereotypes. Anyone can be anyone and love anyone and want anyone, for whatever reason, it's their call. That's kind of what makes life so awesome - it's your utter, sacred freedom to make of it whatever you want, and it's a right no one can (or should) take away from you.

Sorry if this came off as a rant... I already had an argument today about this theme, so am a bit worked up. sad Didn't mean anything personal by it, just disagreeing (very passionately) with ideas I don't agree with. That's all.

I don't care about sexual preferences and treat people based on behaviour.
Gay women tend to hit on me, though. Mainly, because I cannot help myself if an attractive woman flirts with me and end up flirting back. shy

I misunderstood you. Where I'm from and where I've been to it's not really an issue — no one really cares anymore.

Oh, okay. I understood what you said that you pretty much like guys who wear a dress and use lipstick or something like that. Even though we speak the same language it doesn't seem like we understand each other very well...

yeah, Odette and tartufo are in denial stage. Nothing you say will get pass them. Do not fear being gay, embrace it! IT is who you are and we here at MU will not discriminate. We love all our members equally.


so you guys like this kind of thing?
laugh

I have to admit, Sweet transvestite was a good song. IT's catchy and it's radical!

Seriously, is there any man who is comfortable with his sexuality and does NOT gay-up to his fellow friends/enemies for the thrill? I have yet to meet anyone who wouldn't lick his buddy's cheek when motivated.... no complaints though. wink

(now, the fangirls will be even more crazy (crazier?) about this scandinavian than ever^^)

Frankly? I don't really care. A good part of the world is moaning and bitching over how homosexuality will ruin the earth but in actuality, it's diminishing resources(food, water, etc.) and pollution that will likely lead to wars and international conflict if little is done about the rapidly shrinking fish populations and decreasing nutrition of most lifeform because the lower ranks of the food chain they subside on, are rapidly vanishing due to over-consumption or waste contamination.

Besides, it's just two or more people getting together. If someone's so effing afraid of getting hit on by a gay person or interacting with a gay person or something, go live in a cave. Then you won't have to breathe the same air as a gay person. Oh wait, you still have to if you want to live. smile Tough luck, homophobics. bigrazz

Really, that is a narrow-minded view. I'm sure they [who we are talking about] know better to whom they are attracted.

Recently learned there is no more LGBT but LGBTQ. lol at that

no no no, it's not that just the narrow minded ones. See even those who are open to homosexuality only likes it when you get two attractive guys and/or two attractive girls. People like beauty no matter what. Which is why very very very very very few bl ever have two fat ugly slugs[sorry slug] going at it.

Seriously, which would you rather see if you have to?
this one: The Death of Hyacinthos, by Jean Broc. again, epic BL!!! No one has ever been able to surpise this, not even Twilight douches

or this one: Fat Bastard


@ secretdesires

That is a very good question. It appears our society have programed us into drones that defines relationships as one masculine and the other feminine. Thus even gay couples cannot escape this social practice. But this has nothing to do with the validity or legitimacy of homosexuality.

hmmm... hmmm...
i dont have anything bad against gay people... in fact some of my friends are gay or in the denial stage.. but i also admit that sometimes they do annoy me when they get the good guys.. i mean i cant believe that that guy would prefer his thing over mine!!! what the hell is wrong with the world!!! but seriously... sometimes... homesexuality also crosses the borderlines and sometimes it also clashes with my morals and personal beliefs as a person...

@BoxBox
You went some wrong way.
Hm. If there's a man liking another man who dresses/behaves like woman that doesn't mean he still likes women (and went gay on purpose or smth). That basically means he likes guys with gender issues. Same for women. No matter what she is still a woman.
Right?
Anyway, it isn't always 'that one is a seme and the other is an uke'.

I second that open minded thing though.
