Or are the objectors secretly turned on by gay women??  Or are they men repressing their own homosexual instincts??? -------------- If I fly the coop some time And take nothing but a grip With the few good books that really count It's a necessary trip I'll be gone with the girl in the gold silk jacket The girl with the pearl-driller's hands

Quote I do not have the authority to fix the typo as far as I can see.  I think you need to ask a friendly admin   I was afraid you were going to say that.   Anyway, I can't tell you how many virulently homophobic men I've known who were turned on by lesbiands. Probably all of them, actually. The venom all seems to be saved for male gays, except perhaps for some of the hyperfundie types. When you point out that their generalizations about gays fail to apply to gay women, they just change the subject. I suspect that most homophobia derives from the phobic's own severely repressed fears as well as some kind of baboon-level competitiveness with other males. That is, if I can convince myself that gay men are horrible and convince others that you're gay, then I have a way of establishing some kind of cheap dominance over you. You get to maybe work your way up one more notch toward coveted beta male status. That said, I have known a few gay women who seemed to believe that gay men and gay women are different species of humans, no more similar to each other than either is to straights. Like a fourth gender. There's a huge variety of thought on this that I couldn't begin to summarize. -------------- "Rich is just mad because he thought all titties had fur on them until last week when a shorn transvestite ruined his childhood dreams by jumping out of a spider man cake and man boobing him in the face lips." - Erasmus

This seems quite true, but paradoxical to logic.  If anything, straight men should be completely accepting of gay men.  Gay men are voluntarily taking themselves out of the competition for women.  I'm all for that.  Not that I have trouble attracting females, but every little bit helps.  Lesbiand on the otherhand, increase my competition.  Sure, I find them attractive, too.  But, logic says I shouldn't.

What I've always been amused by is the paradox of misogyny so often going hand in hand with homophobia. You'd think they'd be mutually exclusive, but nope. "You kissed a GIRL? That is so GAY!" I think the reason so many straight men are attracted by lesbiands is because they represent women having sex without other men around -- that way they don't have to 'compete' with males, plus they don't run the risk of seeing other men naked, which is something gay men do.

I wonder if it doesn't also have something to do with our culture.  We regularly regard men as being promiscuous, while women are supposed to be demure.  When we see 2 women together, we are seeing women act in a way that we've been taught is taboo, but gets at the secret fantasies of men to have a sexually adventurous woman.  So, we get excited by it.

thordaddy Posts: 486 Joined: Jan. 2006 (Permalink) Posted: April 25 2006,10:04    I think most normal males have both a natural attraction to females and intimacy with females while simultaneously having an aversion to anything relating to male intimacy. So obviously, 2 lesbiands wouldn't not present the same scenario as 2 homosexuads. I turn away from lesbiands on principle since the natural attraction to females is not an adequate evolutionary orientation.

Heh, what's the big deal here anyway? I mean evolution doesn't work, right? So, there's nothing anyone can do to screw up the evolutionary process of mankind, not even by turning lesbiand, because evolution is not happening!

thordaddy Posts: 486 Joined: Jan. 2006 (Permalink) Posted: April 25 2006,10:36    Ved, I would say that evolution "works" if the male is attracted to the female in an intimate manner while being averted to male intimacy. I think evolution becomes more suspect when it tries to justify homosexuality.  It's rather pointless in the whole reproduction/survival scenario.

One sexah femme, lesbiand or otherwise, is good. Two sexah femmes at the same time is doubleplusgood! No big mystery to me.

stephenWells Posts: 127 Joined: April 2006 (Permalink) Posted: April 25 2006,11:57    The interesting point isn't whether homophobes are turned on by lesbians. I think most straight guys are turned on by lesbians on the "more!" principle. The interesting point is whether homophobes are turned on by gay men. I think I've seen a study on this point though I don't have a reference. A lot of that venom is coming from men who've been told that gays bad, all gays bad always, and then they find themselves musing a little too long over some quarterback's ass cheeks and OMG the defensive mechanisms kick in... they're trying to prove something to themselves. Me, I'm straight, and when I think about sex I think about straight sex, mostly. The really rabid homophobes, they think about sex, they think about gay sex. Conclusions?
