So how long can sexuality phases last?

I think "phase" is a very vague term. What a phase is differs from person to person. So for all we know, I could be having the same urges as someone else, but it's a phase for them, but not for me, or vice versa. So this is really just a difficult question to answer.

What urges? Sometimes the best thing to do about sexual urges is act on them. :yes:

Okay then, when I was 15, about two years ago, I developed a crush on a very feminine jock, not a nice guy, but he was so good looking I didn't care.It would help if you were more specific.....
Its been two years, I have had 4 different partners (all male, like me) and now the urges I originally had, the overwhelming lust that used to spill from these fantasies is now barely there anymore.
So I was just wondering is a two years too long to be a phase?

It probably isn't a phase. You might just have the need in your life to find someone special. If it was a phase you wouldn't have continued for 2 years.

I don't think it's a phase. I don't think orientation goes through phases.
I think it's much more likely that you're just getting used to it.

Maybe it's simply a matter of getting older. My "urges" dropped off dramatically around the age of 23-24, and have never gone back, but I found it a relief, as, at that age, my hormonally driven urges overshadowed everything else, and were actually quite bothersome.
I do find that when I have more regular intense exercise, get more solid sleep, and eat more healthy, my body responds with a lot more sexual energy though.

Tastes and desires tend to fluctuate.

Can't brain. Has dumb.
I tend to fluctuate a bit. For a few months, I'll be more interested in females, then I'll be interested in males for a while, then back again. Lately, more strongly interested in guys than anything, but I'll still check out a good looking girl

I think that's potentially disastrous advice.

It sounds to me like the OP is experiencing his bisexuality.

Is it?
People should be what they are not what they think they should be.
Thus one should try sexual activity with anyone they please, assuming the desire is mutual and any sexual advances reciprocated.

You should talk to a teenage unwed mother about that. She will have something interesting to say.

Did I say one should absolve oneself of all personal responsibility for ones actions?
Or did you just infer that?
How interesting.

Bisexuality (to one degree or another) is the default and most prelevant sexuality of humanity.

Tell me about it. I think I'm a little bit bisexual myself. No really, I do have brief but strange interludes of homosexual ideation that change nothing about my heterosexuality. Why am I telling you this? Because I prefer to be transparent.

You offered what seemed to be a Luciferean perspective on sexuality promiscuity.
I responded with a more Christian sensibility.

Incidently I do not regard marriage as a particularly beneficial institution, I abhor the concept in fact, I say this as your comment seems to indicate I should consider the rite of marriage to be a 'good' thing.
Also I have no issues with teenage mothers...if they are commited to their children.
