If you're homophobic, you're in the closet

chicken or the egg imo.

Homophobia makes homosexual acts taboo to the homophobic, taboo acts can be arousing.

Not saying this is for sure the case, just a different way to view the results.

I don't think it's the taboo that makes it arousing, but that which makes the homophobia. While that which we find arousing is too hard to exactly designate, we do know that it's incredibly genetically determined.

The abstract doesn't say what constitutes as "homosexual stimuli" though. I'm not sure I wanna find the full paper to find out. I only mention because there are some things that can be considered gay that actually are not. Like some forms of penis appreciation

wat?

[wufwugy]

wat?

I was waiting for that

What I'm referring to is mainly the vicarious aspects of male sexuality. Many things from icon worship of the penis to liking watching other dudes get blown, cumshot, whatever

There seems to be a stark line between being able to be stimulated by arguably gay things and actually being attracted to the same sex. For example, a whole lot of men could hypothetically have gay sex in some ways, but not too many men are actually attracted to the masculinity e.g. bone structure, hair patterns, muscularity, etc. I'd say that there needs to be distinction between stimulation for stimulation's sake and actual sexual gender/characteristic attraction

ah, ok this makes sense. Like, you don't really want to watch porn co-staring some little dick jerk, so therefore you want to see a nice big cock... which is pretty gay... ha..

Exactly

I think that's also one of the allures to traps. There is a stark contrast between men who like trannies and men who like other men. I mean, they're almost as different as heterosexuality and homosexuality are from each other

A lot of people like to call men who like traps gay, but research has shown that gay men tend to only like manly men, oftentimes to a greater degree than women like manly men.

My read on why some men like traps is mainly two things

1) Penis appreciation gone wild. Men are very hardwired to care so much about their own penis and own sexuality that there becomes indirect products of this with things like appreciating other penises. It may even go so far as to being attracted to other penises, but not to the other masculine features of the men with the penises

2) There's something to men acting like women. One of the primary reasons that homosexuality exists in the genome is due to its benefit to the population as a whole. A lot of human history involves groups of men who do not have the company of women for whatever reasons, and I think that possibly including sexuality within those groups could benefit their survival. One of the main ways this could happen is for some of the men to take on feminine roles as opposed to just them all taking on gay roles.

So I think that guys who like traps are most likely actually not gay at all, but that they're more a variation of heterosexuality. Actual homosexuality appears to be attraction to the gender qualities. The lines are never exact though. It's almost like sexuality is a spectrum

This reminded me of this YouTube - Norm MacDonald - World''s First Two Gay Guys (Part 1 of 3)

Would you be more likely to place a like of traps in terms of a bisexuality (i.e. not 1 on the Kinsey scale), or in terms of a sexual fixation (fetish is the wrong term here), in the same way you'd place a particular like of facesitting, older women or incest in terms of a fixation?

What about mustaches?

I'm comfortable enough in my sexuality that I can do things gay enough to convince most people that I'm a faggot.


If you can't, yer prolly a fag, fags
