Greetings all!
Haven't posted much although I've been a member since Jan. Too much to watch and read. But this topic is one that has intrigued me for many years.
Back in the early 70s, when everyone was fucking everyone else (ah, the days before HIV), I was living with my girlfriend and had many self-proclaimed gay friends. I'd always been attracted to both sexes and it never seemed much of a big deal to label myself.
My girl got a bit upset after I came home very late one evening, having spent the night with a male co-worker. Obviously I'd betrayed her trust, and this was the beginning of the end of our relationship. It also brought up the question from her point of view: was I gay? At the same time, my gay friends were of the opinion that I was in denial, and was masquerading as straight.
So I sat down one day and made a list of every person I had ever had sex with up to that point in my life, and to my amazement it come out exactly even: 25 females and 25 males.
I agree with Jayman that we are all sexual beings. The gender of a person is not the deciding factor of my decision to pursue having sex with them. It is their personality, soul, and overall makeup.
Now many years later, I still find myself emotionally and physically attracted to both genders. But with the risk of AIDS, I tend to be much more choosy in who I actually go all the way with.
I guess my all-encompassing sexuality is the reason I never married. Didn't feel I could honestly say to anyone "til death do we part" or that I could be forever faithful to one person, and honesty is a huge part of my personal ethos.
I don't broadcast my sexuality to the world, but if asked, I will always be honest.
I believe we create our own reality and in our spiritual evolution, we need to have many different experiences.
In my next existence, I think I'll come back as a
