straight male here... can't say i ever get turned on by a guy in porn or anything of that nature, but the number of times i've seen a sexy girl in the distance actually be a slender man under closer examination is too high to count.

Oh sure. I'm totally straight (don't even get along well with women as friends, most of the time), but there have been several times when I've seen an attractive female and thought to myself, "I'd do her."

I'm a straight guy, and I do get turned on by guys, occasionally. Not the chiseled-chested model or porn-star types, though; just ordinary guys, the Jason Kottkes of the world.

I'm a straight guy, but I think that anyone who says that they don't find members of the same sex to be attractive (and yes, maybe a little arousing) is a damn liar. I see attractive guys all the time, but that doesn't mean I'd do them. But then again, for a couple hundred bucks, you might be seeing an OKhotties.com pretty soon..... but only if I get to pitch, and damn right no golden or brown showers. SICK.

Straight female here who believes the female form is beauty at it's finest. Depending on the situation another female can be an amazing turn on - and when it comes to porn they might as well make'em the main feature. Though ultimately a female could never replace my need for male intamacy (physically and/or mentally).

Great article BTW. If my opinion, much of the sexual repression is a direct reflection of the social and moral taboos of our society. Women seem to be affected by these more so then men. But given the proper attention and outlet, men might be surprised at what women really want. He may get more than he barganed for!

Straight woman here, and I don't need to read the article to know that yeah, I do get turned on by women (although I'll read it anyway, just cuz). I mean, for me? Naked men are dopey-looking as a rule. Doesn't mean I don't appreciate men; I just think women are more attractive.

I'm a straight guy, but I really did try a great deal of experimentation to find that out. Guys DO turn me on in many ways, mostly in my imagination. But, if I take one home, or go home with one, then in reality with clothes off and such, it really just doesn't live up to the expectations. There's just no...breasts and no vagina and so everything just seems so difficult and the excitement just seems to easily peter out.

However, with a woman, even some I didn't think I'd be attracted to...I just got in a situation where I could smell them or be close to them and it really changed my mind. And after coming there's all the softness to kind of nestle into.

So I've given up doing anything with guys but flirting, which is fun...but I wish girls were as easy to get into bed as guys!

Women are all bisexual. Naturally! Now I have PROOF! FINALLY!!

I'm a bisexual male so I've watched porn of all species and find it all intruiging in its own right. Both men and women turn me on though I'd have to say I'm much more attracted to most women.

My girlfriend is bisexual as well and while she hasn't watched alot of porn she enjoys it when she does and doesn't mind whats thrown in.

Most of her friends are that way as well. I think the primary reason that most women don't admit to thinking of other women sexually is just the social stigma.

Heck, I think thats true in all respects. Almost all individuals can and are attracted to someone of the same sex at some point in their life. Its just a social stigma (gay == bad) that keeps us from dicussing it, analyzing it and most importantly, acting on it.

Oh yeah, I've never done a chick, but I would, given the right situation. I was actually supposed to have a threesome and then I met my boyfriend and well. . .the temptation was to squeeze it in before we got too serious, but I just COULDN'T LOL. I usually fantasize about women when I masturbate, but. . .

I think guys are beautiful too. I don't think there's a man sexier than my boyfriend and my God, he looks great naked. I don't subscribe to that "naked men are goofy-looking" theory. David, anyone? Or try this. . .the naked men in gay porn or gay magazines are FAR MORE BEAUTIFUL than the ugly stupid nasty gross "straight porn" guys. Ugh.

I'm a happily married woman for 5 years now, and I dated my husband 2 years before we married. I am naturally attracted to men and have always dated the opposite sex, but I've also kissed women and loved it. I also happen to love tits--they're SO great to feel! However, I've had one experience going down on a woman--and having her go down on me--and I did not enjoy either. I'm not sure why, because I do find women beautiful and, if the moment is right, sexually arousing as well. But when I was actually in that situation, it wasn't pleasant for me. When I've thought about it, it could be for several reasons: for one, I wasn't particularly attracted to this woman to begin with. We were in the situation as part of a foursome, with two men. Secondly, the guys were egging us on, and I don't do well under pressure. Whatever it was, I've never had the desire to go that route again...except for one other time, that is.

This time, it was with a girlfriend of mine and we were both under the influence of an illicit drug. I slept over her house that night, the two of us in the same bed, and I was SO horny for her that my body was literally on fire from the inside out. We'd slept in the same bed many times, have gotten high together before, and never with this effect. But that night, I wanted to go down on her so bad...but it just never got that far. We kissed and sucked each other's titties, but that was it. It was great, but when I've seen her since, those feelings have never surfaced again. All this to say, I can go either way, I guess, but I think that for me the connection is based on eroticism and sexiness, not sexual preference. If I'm feeling sexy and there's an attraction there, I could easily go either way. When I picture myself in a couple, however, it's always with a man.

Interesting article, great topic. Americans need an open forum in which to discuss sex; we're so repressed, it's sad.

Eww, yeah, straight porns guys ARE gross.

I too, will agree that straight porn guys are such a turn-off. The girl-on-girl porn is just so much better.

i'm straight but am not really bothered by gay male porn. i used to go to the power exchange in san francisco and it was common to see all kinds of play go on there. i don't seek it out, however, as it has little interest to me.

i have no problems admiring members of the same sex, finding them attractive or beautiful but that doesn't mean i want to fuck them. i am far too attracted to women. i like looking at them and i like touching them. i don't feel the same way towards guys.

Hey Alexa...great ste...I love it...i'll definatly be back to read.

booyah!!! i *knew* i wasn't crazy!!!

it's all because the female form is super sexy, while the male form is mainly utilitarian.

Of all the things that turn me on, I can honestly say that porn is not one of them--even if it is porn with girl-on-girl action. Call me old fashion, but if I am wasting my time with something/one, I want either mental stimulation or real, live action. Porn doesn't offer either, which is why one can never beat fucking because of emotional or mental attachment, or fucking just to fuck.

If any of that made sense. ;)

Hey, I've always believed that everyone is bisexual, just to varying degrees. I'm a highly sexual person and have gotten turned on by boy on boy porn, girl on girl & straight porn. When reading about the women who weren't sure how to handle the fact that they were turned on by another woman, I laughed. The only time I've been confused while admiring another woman's body was when I couldn't decide if I wanted to be her or fuck her :>

As a bisexual man who has written erotica featuring all combinations of lovers, I want to say that the survey mentioned in the article skews toward people who are stimulated visually, but leaves out all those who are more interested in written sex. Personally I find most male-male filmed porn boring, but written descriptions by a talented writer are much more interesting.

I'm straight and I don't find anything about guy on guy atractive. I will admit there have been times when I've said to myself, "There's an attractive guy." but I've never found myself thinking I'd like to have sex with that guy. On the other hand, I've seen some pretty hot Asian She-males! The penis thing get's in the way though. I love women, and the more girly girl the better.

porn is merely a means to suit a mechanical function that lacks any warmth or emotional depth.

Though entirely straight myself, I do respect and understand other orientations ... or I believe I do. Now when I am fucking a woman ... I want that woman to be fucking me back with full reciprocity ... and that is the hot sweaty fun physicality of it.

Concurrent with this ... is the aesthetic sublimation of two souls sharing the same time and space in total worship of the other.

Really good hot sex has three distinctly different planes ... but paradoxically somehow merged together ... in a fun happy amalgam of two hot bodies hard at it together in the best naked exercise routine ever ... with two sharp analytical minds happily working symbiotically together ... and with the adoration and actual worship of two souls merged into the same space and time.

It is understandable to me why in some of the more ancient religions, the sexual act was considered a sacred and holy sacrament ...

My wife and I have been together since we were teenagers. That is 30 years. When the mood is right we will have a three some with a woman. It has always been hot and erotic. It spices up our own sex which is very hot and intimate. It is hard to find a woman who fits the triangle and somtimes we have waited years in between experiences.

Guys don't get much more straight than me - I often refer to myself as a 'flaming heterosexual' - and seeing a man does zilch for me. The few times I have watched porn, what got me interested was seeing a genuine response from the girl or girls involved, and not the usual 'porn-girl face'. If the camera settled on just the business end of things, I would kind of zone out until the camera panned back to the girl. Heh - the only time I enjoy watching a hummer is when I'm the one getting it!

I'm just turned on by sex, no matter who's doing show.

Hey there! I'm your good-time guy and a real crowd-plea ser, if you know what I mean. Hello! I'm interested in taking a few night classes with an experience d lover. I'm your typical student, looking for chances to show the world what I can do. I'm just wondering why there's a serious lack of pussy in my bed. I prefer to stay open to whatever comes my way. I've always been good at getting a conversati on started and keeping it interestin g. I like my partners to be open to anything. Commitment -wise, it doesn't have to be serious, so long as we enjoy it. For me a perfect Friday night is one that doesn't end until the next day. If you contact me remember that emails with a naked photo get special considerat ion. I'm not changing my life, but I want to explore a few new options and see how it works out. Feel free to drop me a line if you have any questions. Thanks!
