Truth: There are degrees of homosexuality

[jyms]

I prefer a masculinity-femininity spectrum instead of heterosexual-homosexual one. This is because I find that it's not that I'm attracted to women, but that I'm attracted to femininity. This dichotomy much more sufficiently explains fetishes. An example is that most men who like transexuals don't also like men the way that homosexuals do. I explain this by claiming that its the feminization that men who like transexuals like

Furthermore, I recall a study that showed that the vast majority of gay men are really gay. Like, they're overtly attracted to masculine features, as opposed to simply being attracted to dudes. If this is the case, then what does it mean for a man who likes highly feminized men but not the average masculine man?

This and your other post brings up some interesting thoughts for me then. As stated before, I prefer a more muscular woman than a some of those large curvy ones. I prefer smaller asses and tits than many guys too. Not sure what that could mean for me.

It's normal. It's the evolutionary mechanism of niche strategies. It also explains why fetishes exist, such as a fetish for large women. A more extreme example, but basically a small amount of males interested in large women, a niche where there isn't much competition. The evolutionary approach can explain everything in a very consistent way, that is why it is the basis for all modern psychology now. But I don't know to what degree people here are interested in it so I'll just leave it at that.

You guys have a much narrower definition of fetish than I do. I can't possibly see how most fetishes can even begin to be described by niche theory or an m-f scale.

I think bottoms may have a bit of a female brain, but I'm not sure you're theory holds for the gay tops.

ufs theory is also weird, there are all sorts of different gay couples like twinks and bears, plenty of examples where the attraction isn't necessarily the man features (im took that to not mean cock btw)

Maybe fetish wasn't the right word to use, it makes you think of outlandish fetishes. Like guys who like to see women pee or take a horse's cock up the ass. But remember that because our brains are such a complex organism strange things can happen. If a fetish actually impedes on a person's ability to mate, they'll simply get weeded out of the genepool, that's how it works. I meant it more in the sense of differing tastes (the fat women taste is called a fetish though). The most attractive thing about a female is still that you have a connection with her, that's she's interested in you.

Also have to add most of what I'm saying is based on older books and articles I've read. Unless you want to know the intricate details of perception (and perception psychology) I haven't been following the rest all that much in recent years.

Perhaps. Muscle isn't that big of a masculine trait relative to other ones. Femininity has its own unique muscle patterns and sizes. Lots of men prefer petite too.
