I just can't imagine what it would feel like having something crammed up my bum hole. I've heard some horror stories.



To all these guys saying 'how do people resist women?' and 'how come all women arent gay?'

it goes back to the same logic you use in videogames to not be a fanboy

sometimes some people think differently than you do.

it may be hard to imagine i know



Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

How can the sex be better when male and female genital organs were made for each other? That's like saying Mario is better on the PS3 because it's in HD or something like that..

Yes my logic is flawed and yes I'm going to bed now..



 

First of all I am surprised by the amount of gay-themend threads in a videogame forum and I believe the topic has been discussed several times already without coming to any conclusion.

But... whatever.

As for myself I can say that I never felt attracted to women. Even as a child and before even knowing what sex is all about I could see that I feel about girls differently than other boys.

I strongly disbelief that people just become gay because of experiences in their life and I especially doubt that one can choose to be gay. Therefore I think the thread title is misleading as in my opinion it is not a matter of wanting to be gay, but rather a matter of being gay or not.

As I feel attracted to other men, and as I cannot imagine it being any other way, I want to be gay because I have always been like this.

Some time ago I actually would have liked to be straight, not because I felt women to be more attractive or anything, but just in order to be seen as "normal" and to avoid problems in day-to-day life. However I later realized that I am not the problem, but rather the other people who are having problems accepting me.

To make a long story short: I can say that I certainly not decide to be gay. It is just the way I am. And therefore I don't want it any other way.

Rated M for Mature...

or AO... >_> you guys gotta remember theres sorikus roaming vgchartz you'll taint innocent minds!

ot though... other then sephiroth himself (who is not real thank god.) i would not be gay for anyone... sure there can be some pretty boys out there that is wtfomgmadeofthesmex, but right from the big black book itself, Adam and Eve, enough said, i have a few gay friends and there awesome friends indeed one of the best, but i regard "gayness" as a Sin, meaning once the reckoning cometh well...

In conclusion, i personally belive its "wrong" but eveyone has there own choices to make and i respect that.

Indeed a lot of threads on the topic around here lately.

To the point, I knew around 13-14 y/o. My parents actually thought my brother (4 years older) might be gay and missed that with me entirely because he'd stay home and write code and not show any interest towards having a girlfriend until he was at least 18. I'd be out running around and until around 10 y/o I also got dragged into getting "engaged" to a different girl every couple of weeks.

Never weighted the pros and cons of being gay, frankly as practical as they seem they are rubbish unless you're at least slightly bi and looking for casual sex.

And I don't find the classial female body attractive at all. Boobs and wide hips put me off like nothing else. I do find some women (mostly lacking the above) attractive in a pretty detached way, as in I'm not really attracted to them but they do look nice.

I only think that's part of it. It's similar I think to being attracted to certain races or body shapes. We can have these things formed by the media, our country of origin, etc. I wasn't born to like big booty latinas, but a healthy dose of magazine reading, TV watching, etc. has formed part of my sexual attraction. If I was born in India instead, I'd probably have a different idea of who I found attractive. If this can all be affected by nurture within our opposite or same sex attractions, I don't see why some of it can't affect our sexual orientation in addition to the genetic piece.

Well, I definately agree with you that our experiences (media etc.) definately have an impac on us and our personality, including what we find attractive or not.

But in terms to which gender we feel attracted... I doubt it is that easily explained. Okay, people from different countries have different preferences in women and men, but isn't that more about the details?

Just as different heterosexual men around the world are feeling attracted to different female types, gay men around the world are feeling attracted to different types of men (more feminine or masculine men, just to name one example).

So I do agree that what we like in a person (and the look of a person) is influenced by our experiences (according to Freud also by how our parents look ) but I don't believe that being gay or not is determined throughout our childhood, for example.

It might be a mix of several factors (a discussion brought up in another thread here), including genetics, exposure to hormons in the mothers womb etc. but all that I can say is that I have never decided to be gay.
