Straight guys turning gay

Can a straight person become gay?

Yes it happened twice: once in Wales and now in France

We often listen uneducated and ill-informed religious people sprouting the theory direct people can be turned gay. And that’s why they tell us it’s best to save homosexuals in the closet, out of our schools and  that diversity/anti-bullying programs should never be taught in schools as they promote the ‘hoooomosexual lifestyle’. The Rev Fred Nile called these programs brain-washing.

It’s not that easy

Over  the years, religious conservatives created fear-mongering campaigns with titles such as ‘Save our Children’ or ‘Protect our Children from Homosexual Recruitment’ believing that all it takes to rotate a straight person over to the dark side is a gay bloke or lesbian……and this occurs supposedly through sexual abuse or seduction. Whist some might have one or several queer experiences, it never actually flicks the switch.

God knows, for four decades, Christian gay conversion therapy organisations have told endless stories of the opposite; people who say they were once lgbtq+ but are now straight. The issue with those

Why do some straight men contain sex with other men?

According to nationally-representative surveys in the Merged States, hundreds of thousands of straight-identified men have had sex with other men.

In the recent book Still Straight: Sexual Flexibility among White Men in Rural America released today, UBC sociologist Dr. Tony Silva argues that these men – many of whom enjoy hunting, fishing and shooting guns – are not closeted, bisexual or just experimenting.

After interviewing 60 of these men over three years, Dr. Silva found that they enjoy a range of relationships with other men, from hookups to sexual friendships to secretive loving partnerships, all while strongly identifying with straight culture.

We spoke with Dr. Silva about his book.

Why undertake straight-identified men have sex with other men?

The majority of the men I interviewed reported that they are primarily attracted to women, not men. Most of these men are also married to women and prefer to have sex with women. They explained that although they loved their wives, their marital sex lives were not as active as they wanted. Sex with men allowed them to possess more sex. They don’t think about sex with men cheating and s

Turns out bedding linear guys is easy

I recently hooked up with a married guy who says he's bisexual. He claims that he rarely goes to gay bars as he can detect hook-ups in vertical bars all the time.

Whenever he travels for work, he heads to a straight bar. As it passes midnight, he'll start chatting up a guy. Inevitably, the guy (likely also in the town for business) will him to finish drinks in a hotel room.

He says these "straight" guys carry out everything gay guys do--top, bottom, whatever.

I didn't realize it was so usual. The guy I hooked up with (via an App) is just okay looking and middle aged but an animal in bed. It's not prefer he's some god.

Long-suffering Spectator readers deserve a seasonal break from yet another Remoaner diatribe from me. My last on this page, making the outrageous suggestion that the populace may sometimes be wrong, is now creature brandished by online Leaver-readers of my Times column as proof that I am in fact a fascist; so there isn’t anywhere much to depart from there.

Instead, I shift to sex. There is little time left for me to write about sex as the thoughts of a septuagenarian on this subject (I spin 70 this year) may soon meet only a shudder. But I own a theory which I have the audacity to think important.

What follows is not written here for the first time, and much of it is neither original nor new; but on very limited subjects have I ever been more sure I’m right, or more sure that future generations will see so, and wonder that it stared us in the face yet was not acknowledged. My firm belief is that in trying to categorise sex, sexuality and — yes — even gender, the late 19th, 20th and early 21st centuries have taken the medical and social sciences down a massive blind street. No such categories subsist . And it has been particularly sad in 2018 to see the ‘tran
