I dunno, I'm a straight guy and it doesn't bother me. It used to but one day I realized it was just socially instilled gay panic.

- ElComradio 11y agoInteresting concept, that sexual orientation is something we believe is ingrained, but things we find sexually repulsive are fluid and subject to change.
- asddubs 11y agoWell I don't think there is such a thing as sexual repulsion.
- Nadya 11y agoYour reasoning is yours alone and the anecdote can be easily hand-waved away: perhaps you're bisexual or lean more heavily towards homosexuality than most heterosexuals, thus find it less repulsive. As for not believing in sexual repulsion - is this in regards to gender or in general?
- asddubs 11y agoI don't think there's sexual repulsion. Either you are repulsed by something or you are not, whether it's sexual has nothing to do with it. And what we are repulsed by is often conditioned And no, I am not bisexual.
- Nadya 11y agoSo how do you define the word "turnoff"? Or the phrase "mood killer". There are things that I'm not repulsed by in anything but a sexual context. So I disagree with you on that merit alone. Also I was referring to the Kinsey Scale. You can be "leaning towards homosexuality" without actually desiring to have sex with the same sex. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinsey_scale https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinsey_scale
- asddubs 11y agoI think what you're talking about is very different from what my original comments parent talked about, though. Sure, you can have turn-offs. Although what society finds unattractive is also hugely based on culture, just like what it finds attractive.
