Straight Males and Homosexual Experimentation
Ooner1
Quite simply, I’m wondering how common it is for self-identifying straight males to experiment with homosexuality. Sorry if this comes off as asking for TMI, or if it’s in the erroneous forum (seemed too "what’s your personal experience?) for GD.
Being gay and having gay friends, I hear a lot about 2 kinds of dealings with straight guys. The first is youthful experimentation, before the participants are fully aware or cozy with their sexual orientation. I personally never had such experiences, I didn’t have sexual contact with anyone until I was fairly mature and content with my sexuality.
The other contact is the kind of thing you overhear about more in erotic fiction or porn, which is the sleeping with the straight guy AFTER they’re both older and arrange in their sexual orientation. I’ve had friends talk about how they’ve “gotten with” straight guys just because the timing was right, a guy was horny or what have you. Again, I know nothing of the sort, and always considered straight guys to be completely unattainable.
Why do some straight men have sex with other men?
According to nationally-representative surveys in the United States, hundreds of thousands of straight-identified men have had sex with other men.
In the new 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 appreciate a range of relationships with other men, from hookups to sexual friendships to secretive loving partnerships, all while strongly recognizing with straight culture.
We spoke with Dr. Silva about his book.

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
10 Reasons Gays Chase Straights
We've all done it, and some of us undertake it over and over again. What leads woman loving woman and gay grown-ups to abandon reason and pursue the sexually unobtainable?
1 EVERYONE IS STRAIGHT To paraphrase Harvey Fierstein in Torch Song Trilogy, we reside in a world where every movie, every TV show, and every billboard tells us we're linear. Heck, even the flagrantly homoerotic Abercrombie & Fitch ads toss in a bikini-clad woman for every 10 buff shiftless dudes, lest we think the fellas aren't hankering for female companionship. With such a thick coat of heterosexual whitewash splashed over every sexual image, it takes a powerfully gay imagination--and sometimes many nights at Crazy Nanny's or the Spike, or years in therapy--to construct an object of desire that's truly our own, fully hetero-free.
Every time some gossip rag talks about how "no man can resist" J. Lo's derriere or how "women everywhere" are swooning over Ashton Kutcher, it's a reminder that for a shocking number of people in this culture, gay people just don't exist. Who else are we
