Just a question
 

Alright I'm going to preface this. This is not a thread for hate, I believe that this community is mature enough to accept people for who they are. So out of curiosity I'd like to see how many people are gay, bisexual, and straight. You don't need to post if you feel uncomfortable. The poll is anonymous.

Jeah I'm straight (but jokingly gay) :xD:

Like an arrow.

Bi, generally prefer women, it's online so I don't really care who knows. RL is different.

Straight :)

Straight ;D.

I'm straight and looking for ma Neytiri. :love:

I'm straight although I think some people think I'm gay or bisexual because of how I act or my personality, but that's just the way I am.

And I'm pretty sure bisexual and bicurious mean the same thing. :/

Straight for "various reasons" ;)

Straight


Bicurious?? That's a new one...lol

No, they don't. It's part of the problem with setting up orientation like it's multiple choice, as opposed to a sliding scale, but being actually bisexual and merely being kinda curious/open, but mostly straight or gay, isn't the same thing.

Straight, other guys are friends, thats it

I don't think "ma Neytiri" would appreciate if I was gay. :xD:

Gay, however, I don't adhere to the popular cliches

Straight.

I'm straight, and looking for my Jake. :)

That's almost a mirror description of me; I don't sound gay; I sound pretty masculine (deep voice ftw). It's the hand and body movements I have sometimes.

I'm bi-curious, and I don't mean that in a joking way. There are a few guys I would actually like to have a relationship with.

I have a feeling that from the perspective of this forum a members sexual orientation is completely irrelevant. Often I have a hard enough time deciphering if a forum member is male or female let alone gay or straight. It's kind of a good thing actually.

Straight, looking for my Neytiri...

:D Here also. And married twelve years with offspring, so there is circumstantial evidence. ;) Though, as a stone-cold naturalist, I've nothing against any of the other choices. :)

Another straight here

Bisexual, with very few stereotypical mannerisms.

Bicurious, I'd say. Too much going for me at the moment to worry about relationships.

Trust me, I know what that's like. I barely sleep because of my academics, let alone have a social life :P

<.< Well now that this is revived, bisexual.

Straight.

Bicurious.. I guess.

Straight

About 95% straight to 5% bi-curious, but I voted straight as i'm not curious enough to vote the other way.

You know what I like to tell people that make fun of gays? I always say "You can never be anything other than bisexual, because you might like women now, but you never know when you might change. So until you're on your death bed, don't go making fun of something you might become."

Gets em sometimes


edit: oh and I answered straight... well because that's what I'm attracted to I guess

@Theorist: That's actually really good; I might use that sometime.

Seems redundant to be, because it changes the definition. The widely-accepted definition of bisexual is someone who is actively attracted to both. Saying someone is just because they may be at some undetermined future point is like saying everyone is tall because they might become tall at some point.

I agree, but that doesn't mean it can't be effective in combatting gay-bashing straight people.

Not really - it avoids the real issue. It's a bit like implying that anyone who dislikes gay people is secretly gay - some very well might be and indeed, have in a few cases turned out to be, but it isn't true for everyone, and some people have other problems that can cause such opinions, while implying things about them really just pushes real problems (and therefore their solutions) under the carpet.

You're probably right, as always.

About five years ago, I had a really gay year. My mom flipped :( She always seemed okay with gays until she knew that I might be one.

Moco knows who the boy I like is :3

Straight.

I don't agree with the choice of life that LGBT people choose, but I think they shouldn't be deprived of the right to make their decision. I have nothing against LGBT people, but I admit that they are easy to make fun of. Of course, I don't have any mean or hurtful intentions when I joke around.
