Sexual orientation of EA members

[Jorge2008 (imported)]

Hi, I've been a couple of years here and have noticed that there are lots of gay people here, way more than one would expect by the general population (some 3% of people are homosexual I think). So I thought we could make some statistics.

I'm straight-leaning bisexual myself.

Where do you fit by sexual orientation?

[nvrgag44 (imported)]

Guess I'll go first. Bi since adolescence and happily married for 49 years with an understanding wife. Same as many women, she lost interest in sexual activity when menopause came along. I was OK with it because as the years went by I lost all interest in women as my preference for men became exclusive. I always found sex with men more exciting anyway. Now I really crave the intimacy and closeness of a like minded guy more than just sex. I call myself a Kinsey 5 because I am married. Otherwise I'd be a 6. I'm only attracted to straight acting guys or those close to it, not the flaming freaks who seem to just crave attention by wearing it on their sleeve. Not many older guys fit that description anyway.

Bisexual but more gay than straight. I even married a woman in my youth in an attempt to cure myself. Didn't work.

Due to how the brain might masculinize or feminize some men are naturally more feminine. I am out to all I know so am I wearing it on my sleeve? Or am I just proud and want my rights?

Intact I thought of myself as gay and as a eunuch I think of myself as straight while being attracted to men in both states. As a third gender I think of men and women as my opposites with me somewhere in the middle. I can relate to both and feel like neither. Physically and emotionally I have always been attracted to men and unlike some my desires did not become more fluid. I enjoy the company of women more than before but still no interest in anything physical.

I consider myself as Bi. I have never been attracted exclusively to either men or women although the degree of attraction depends on the circumstances and on the individual. --FLO--

[Marian-Zero (imported)]

Asexual ...

[Wellesley (imported)]

straight eunuch.

on HRT

leaning to asexuality

[micdavi24 (imported)]

Straight, newly castrated for medical reasons and on HRT

[cheetaking243 (imported)]

When I first joined this site I considered myself a straight guy.

Nowadays, having been on HRT for 14.5 months, I identify as a bisexual woman.

[daifu-orchid (imported)]

Interesting. I joined a castrated straight male on HRT. Then got a bad supply of T away from home, and became mostly asexual. Then T was replaced, mostly at a spouse's request, and the straight male returned. I suspect that what I am M <-> E depends on T. (I've sometimes wondered what would happen in the same body if E replaced T.)

[Losethem (imported)]

Definitely gay. I like dick even though I'd like to do away with mine.

I did have sex with a woman once, and that was enough for me.

I used to think that I was Gay.. But after I became a Eunuch, I believe I could live in a healthy heterosexual life style. Things changed with no sex drive.

[FromTheLandDownunder (imported)]

Gay not much interest in sex with the low T I'm on. To busy working and raising a 5 year old on my own to worry about sex or dating. thinking about stopping T for awhile but I don't think my body would like me with all the walking and lifting I do at work.

My first thoughts of becomming a girl occured around the age of 6 - 8. They have occurred periodically since then. However, due to circumstances, I have never been able to openly act on those thoughts.

[george2u2 (imported)]

If I remember corectly about 60% of men are to some degree bisexual and about 6% are strictly gay.

It's not suprizing that many of us identify with our male loving side more than our hetro side when we can be honest about castration.

[jcat (imported)]

It is a very interesting thought! I have been transgender and on and off hormones for years. Since I have permanently lowered my testosterone with alcohol injections, I have reached a place of not being concerned about gender or sex at all and for the first time in my life I am truly at peace. So I guess that makes me a transitioning asexual!

[ZeuterMe (imported)]

Does confused work? :-p

Does confused work? :-p Confused is my middle name!

[A-1 (imported)]

Was anybody here a BUY sexual until they shut down the whorehouse?



...like me?

[Stacy4u2 (imported)]

I am gay but was married twice when I was younger to try to cure myself and fit in....of course, it didn't work....soooooooooooooooooooo

[devi (imported)]

To me, I think it's not so much a matter of sexual orientation that should be questioned but rather that of gender (or personal) compatibility. My "sexual orientation" is toward females and being "male" (although I have no balls, children or marriages behind me) would then nevertheless make me straight. However due to certain circumstances I'm usually not compatible with the demands made by women in the course of a relationship. I'm told to walk a certain way, dress a certain way, deepen my voice when I'm talking, and basically to act the alpha male and so forth. This is tiresome to me. When I walk I don't care if my "arms swing way out and I look like a monkey on stilts" and so forth. So I'm generally with men not because I'm more attracted to them. It's just that there are certain ones that have no demands on how you should be and will treat you decently.

Two words: Asexual gay.

[eunuch2001 (imported)]

Before castration I was one hundred percent gay; now I'm low-T asexual and I'm much happier that way.

[Riverwind (imported)]

Straight, w/kids, grand critters and one great grandson.

But to answer your question yes I think there are more gays on this site then the general population would suggest.
