Why cant I be straight?

[whereismynotecard]

I'd say that I am "straight," because I think that men are attractive, but I don't have any desire to have secks with anyone... So I guess I am niether gay nor un-gay...

Buttons?
Why do you think people wouldn't accept that someone can be happy to be straight?
In your experience is this a pervasive attitude amongst those of other orientation?

I have experienced this attitude regarding race.
I remember once this (black) girl at school just couldn't/wouldn't believe
that I was perfectly happy as I was,
and that I didn't secretly wish I was black.

Our mutual friend (also black) would try to convince her that YES
I was actually truly happy being myself, just as I was.

(I was a Jazz Music major.
I'm sure this added to her skepticism.)

LOL! It just makes me laugh.

People often project their own issues/insecurities onto others.
What what of it? Ya know? What does it really matter.

It doesn't. However, I like to prove a point, it comes with me being a slightly combative panda

Perhaps I do secretly wish I was gay, then I'd have something to feel sorry for myself about whenever someone didn't agree with me.

Ok. Now I think I get you.

It's just that it was a joke.

And the "why can't I be gay" thread was written by a straight.
So the proper inverse would be
a "why can't I be straight" thread written by a gay. No?

Eh. I dunno. Sometimes things just don't inverse themselves naturally.

"why can't I be straight" written by a straight
came off confusing for me. Serious.
I didn't get it.

Lol, I know, I meant to kind of get people laughing about the stupidity of it all. I tend to do things like that....

there is such a thing as being a-sexual. You can celebrate that if you really want to.

That sounds scary... I think men are attractive, but secks is scary... I don't need any secks... perhaps I am a-secksual...

 

[methylatedghosts]

And that is worth celebrating too!

 

[whereismynotecard]

Wooooooot!! I'll celebrate not wanting any secks from anything.

HOORAY STRAIGHTNESS w00t !!! Give me a woman with mile long legs. Though this asexual thing, I don't believe actually exists but prove me wrong! It's just the people whom I've encountered claiming they were asexual (who knew so many considered themself asexual?) later admitted to being homosexual or were in fact virgins whom seemed to enjoy sex rather frequently after their first time. I just think people who claim to be asexual just don't have an initial interest in sex or are worried about what others think about how they really feel, which is ashame, people really ought to accept who they are so they can enjoy life.

not long ago, if someone was gay, they would hide it because they were ashamed, now they think we should be ashamed for being straight! i dont get it. but i am proud to say that i am straight./QUOTE]

Who is "they?" Are you referring to every LGBT person? In that case, you would be wrong. I'm gay, and I don't think anyone should be ashamed of their sexuality, gay, bi, or straight. If my parents weren't straight, it's quite unlikely i would have been born, you know.

As for celebrating being straight, it's fine with me. Celebration is fun. I don't actually celebrate the fact that I'm gay, but I can say that since I don't know what it would like NOT to be gay, I'm comfortable with myself and wouldn't want to change even if I could (and I can't.)

I'd rather just celebrate positive things about myself and my life in general, of which sexuality is one very important element, but still only one element. Now if a person is celebrating being straight or gay because they think that makes them superior, I don't agree with that. But if you're just celebrating your own sexuality and the joy and pleasures it has brought you, whether you're gay or straight, that sounds like a good, life-affirming thing. I'm all for it.

Why can't I be straight? Well, I might be alittle curious, but dudes just aren't my thing.

Totally agree, dudes aren't my thing either. They're insensitive, hairy, gross, flatulent, and want to stick their willy wonkas into every hole they can fit it in it seems.
