Kinsey is but one source of 'enlightenment' - I don't like basing what I believe on one source.
I am not doubting you if you say it was so but you are the first person I have ever heard from that had that kind of choice-control. I know I had none.
I maintain that there is no 'choice' - well not for most of us anyway. I have never been able to 'choose' what I like and don't like - only whether I act upon it or not. I either like something or I don't - I can't make myself like something I don't care for, be it food, love, music ...whatever.
I can agree with that quite readily - but I don't wish to be viewed as different, wrong or sick because I am not the same as everyone else.
Don't you enjoy your homoloveual relationships? If so, thats why.
You've lost me here. I enjoy my gay relationship(s) but I still didn't CHOOSE to feel this way. I didn't conciously decide one day - "Gee, that looks like fun. I think I'll be gay." No - I knew I was gay and that happiness and fulfillment was going to come from a guy who felt the same way! If I liked women, I am sure I would have found a good one of those too - but I don't so I haven't - though I tried it once. It felt so wrong!
The balance shifted when I could no longer go on hating what I was for the sake of society. I deserve to be happy too!
I have in the past - but I think my current partner would be less than impressed. Unless I bagged one and brought him home to play. LOL
