StraightEra : Were you ever attracted to someone from the same sex?

Many people dispute the claim that sexuality is a spectrum and that we are not necessarily on the exclusive ends of the scale ( just as many people find it hard to grasp the notions of bisexuality and pansexuality).

However, I sometimes am curious about conceptualizing such ideas from the other perspective. As a gay man, I've been able to appreciate women in a " wow she's stunning and charming " kind of way but I never really had the urge to pursue something physical.
Have you ever had such an experience where you were attracted to someone from the same sex? even as a singular incident that never re-occurred?

I find many men attractive, just not sexually attractive.

Pretty much what you describe w/ women.

No, but I can clearly identify a handsome man. Like I'll be watching a show/movie with my wife and I'll say things like "that guy is handsome."

No.. looking at someone of the same sex is like looking at a plain toaster.

I mean, sure, I guess I could do my business with it, but why would I when I have a toaster OVEN over there.

Can't say I ever had a hardon for any of my favorite male stars (Bogart, Nicholson etc)

I'm just like you are with women. I can recognize when a man is hot but it's not sexual. Well maybe like what's his ass look like but that's it. Ok maybe a little curious about dick size but for real, that's it. And how he kisses, ok I'm gonna stop now. I'm straight ok?!

I have no issues with finding some guys good looking. It usually motivates me to do my best when I go running during the week. I wanna be in good shape. Lol

Attractive people are attractive regardless of sex. Never felt compelled to have sex with anyone of the same sex thus far though.

I mean, let`s be honest here.
Can you look at a guy like Idris Elba and NOT think the dude is fucking handsome?

Yeah sure. Not just in the traditional recognition sense either, definitely a little sexual interest.

Theoretically, i certainly could see myself 'being' with another guy. Like - sure - cuddling, spooning, holding hands, what have you - even kissing, why not.

But once i imagine the actual intercourse, i really don't find the idea of playing around with another man's junk particularly enticing. Neither do i find a naked man arousing, really. I like the whole boobs / waist / butt thing.

Aren't fans of bodybuilding competitions mostly male?
Most guys can admire good bodies and handsome men, but it's not sexual attraction.

I'm having a difficult time trying to get the premise of the thread. If you're addressing straight people, they would probably not be attracted to their own gender. hence, straight. unless they weren't necessarily straight, but then they aren't who you're addressing in the title?

There are a lot of people who generally think of themselves as straight who might actually be a little bit bi, who may be trying to repress those feelings or just haven't found someone who makes them want to explore them further.

There are some androgynous/feminine men that I feel I could sleep with. I've also been attracted to men in drag. I've never felt a desire for a romantic relationship with a man though and I'm not completely sure about the sex part. So I'm probably somewhere in between straight and bi. I generally just identify as straight however.

I can find some men attractive/aesthetically pleasing.

But I've never been attracted to a man. No interest in a dude sexually or romantically at all.

I think this sums it up for me, too.

I have looked at many male penis and balls in straight porns and never find them arousing. Actually young rocco was pretty good looking that's about it.
