What does "creams your twinkie" mean? Does that mean if my... parts demonstrate arousal via increased blood flow and strange, uncomfortable feelings? :oops: I don't think any person has ever done that to me, though I've definitely had crushes (not recently), and I've definitely felt that way for other reasons.

Mine's written on my care label. "95% straight, 5% linen. Do not machine wash."

i am not at all attracted to any male form.

girls are clean and soft and well shaped and fair of mind. i can cuddle with girls and not feel like foreign skin is touching my skin.

males are angular and bony and hairy and somewhat smelly and egotistical of mind.
if a man touches me i recoil and i remember to wash that area soon after.

girls faces are beautiful. mens faces are not.

even if i was incarcerated for 40 years with males, i would never consider touching one.

i know that some will dislike my attitude, but there one goes.

I'm pretty much neuter these days but I will say no woman ever walked in the room and made my heart beat faster.

It's sort of like "whatever floats your boat" or what makes you feel good. You may have to try different things to see, like others have said.

I'm only sexually attracted to females, but I can see myself having a romantic relationship with a male.

I agree--it CAN be confusing! I consider myself thoroughly straight, but I've encountered a few gals now & then that made me rather fervently wish I was born male!

One of my cousins, as well as my late BFF, are/were both gay. They both told me that they came to the realization early in puberty. They both told me they tried to be intimate with the opposite sex. While they could satisfy their partner, they realized that *they* got no satisfaction. So the cousin got divorced & has stayed single, the BFF never married.

Too bad our society is so homophobic. Too many people think that child molestation is limited to homosexuals. Trust me--it's NOT.

Gays & Lesbians deserve the same shot at happiness & success as the rest of us.

I consider myself a straight female but there are women I have known who I felt like I've almost fallen in love with

because they were just so awesome. Funny, creative, intelligent and easy to be around. That makes me want to be

around them more, but it doesn't translate to any sexual desire or even a need for affection from them. It just isn't

there. I guess you'd call it extreme admiration.

I realized that I'm attracted to all genders, just by paying attention to who I'm attracted to. Looking at pictures of attractive people can help. I'm attracted mostly to masculine identified female bodied people but have experienced attraction to all genders and am open for relationships with any gender.

For me; girls did not.


So, how do I determine it if I would rather not sleep with anyone at all?


Kiss/look at/think about/jerk off to. Whatever.
But one/both/none will turn you on - the determine the attraction from that.


You could try porn. Get some girl-girl stuff and some straight stuff & see which you like more. I discovered my orientation very young while rummaging through my fathers closet. I was much more interested in the stuff that didn't include the guys :mrgreen:
