Poll question: Hypothetical Question For Straight Guys *Warning, Weird Question*
I hope this isn't too offensive. I was just curious if anyone's ever thought about it before and what they would do if they were gay.

If you were gay, would you pitch or catch?

2. You are right, it is a bizzare question
I have never really thought about it, I am not sure how to answer since I am not gay, and I am sure there are different feelings involved in both acts.

Shit. I don't know.

13. LOL
The reason I ask is because I don't think it's the same-sex aspect of male homosexual intercourse that's tough for some guys to wrap their minds around, but the "betrayal" of the gender role that's involved in being a "bottom".

Also, I'm a naughty girl.

15. I'm fairly certain that my WIFE would probably...
...LAUGH her ass off if I ever ASKED!

So no I wouldn't "Let" her because I wouldn't ask:-)

27. yes
There's a reason the prostate is such a sensitive area. female to male anal sex happens alot more than most people think. To me, its just a broadening of the horizons.

Besides, in BDSM-themed / lifestyle relationships - there's a whole lot of that type of activity going on.

32. depends..
Alot of male submissives tend to get into strap-on play as it enhances their submissive feelings towards their partner. Not to mention that some women can become very aroused by using a strap-on, both physically (depending on placement and design) and psychologically.

9. Well I was a pitcher until my shoulder started hurting.
Then I played 2nd base and...Catcher evry 4th game.

Hmm. If I was gay I'd probably try to be a giver and a taker. Chicks do the "catching" that way every so often so why wouldn't I? Why not?:shrug:

12. He's asking about gay male sex.
You're certainly "OK" for not being familiar. That said, I'll tell ya'.

"Pitching" is DOING the screwing. Catching is RECIEVING the pitching, in the...You probably guessed it...Butt.

AND, from the gay men that I've know, not ALL do both. And some just have oral sex.

16. Would anyone like an honest answer from a gay man?
Edited on Sat Nov-08-03 09:38 PM by Rowdyboy
I'm nearly 50, my partner 55. We've been together almost 15 years and have a fabulous sex life. We have never had anal intercourse.

Thats right, there's more to being a gay man than butt-f**king. Believe it or not, incredible heights of intimacy can be found through frottage, oral, directed body rubbing, and masturbation. With the right partner, kissing, caressing etc can literally mind-blowing.

I have been openly gay for almost 30 years and never sucessfully had anal sex. Have no interest. I want to be equals with my man, not his master, nor his subordinate. I don't want to be a "top" or a "bottom", I want to be a "side".

addenda: The opinions expressed above do not necessarily represent the opinions of many gay men anywhere in the world. Just two in my house.

"Down with the Buttf**k Hegemony"

on edit: Can we classify this under "more than I needed to know"?

21. User name was taken from a favorite episode
of Designing Women that left my partner and me rolling on the floor. I've often wished I had simply registered as Rowdy, but I'd lose my 4000 posts if I changed now (though what the fuck difference that makes is beyond me!). Anyway, no, username aside, I'm 49 going on 21.

19. Do I get points for pointing that out?!
Perhaps I wasn't "spot on" but pretty close, no?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=383050#383144

I want 1,000,568 points, thanks you.:-)

24. Yes, JanMichael, you do...
It's really weird. I really like straight people who have a clue and you do. Many folks believe stereotypes and many gays give them reason to. But we're like everyone else. Some of us are contrary as hell and do what we like.

JanMichael 1,000,558 points (I deducted 10 points from your total score for the "thanks you" in your last line. Verb/pronoun tense agreement is very important, young man! :spank:

30. I'm drunk. That doesn't mean I want to "Catch" though!
Bwahahahahaha!

Sorry, couldn't "helps" myself:-)

As to my "clue" all I have to say is that I'm one of those people that ask questions of the new people that I meet. Sometimes they're embarrassing but usually people actually LIKE getting a chance to set me straight.

Thus the tiny amout of "understanding" on my part:-)

Thanks for the points!

Wonder why that is? :shrug:

I can't think of any other poll with twice as many replies as votes.

34. My objection was that the initial poll
assumed that anal sex was an integral part of gay sex. In many cases it is. However, in many other cases it is not. I certainly don't object to the question, for God's sake, many people find it wonderfully exciting. It just does nothing for me or my partner and we are "not merely gay, we're really quite sincerely gay" (apologies to the Wizard of OZ).
