Gay drug

[72jay]

I wouldn't take a straightening drug.. Simply because knowing my luck it would have a side effect of growing breasts and other female parts

Good point! .. i'd take it _only_ if there were no side effects

Why? Would you want to eradicate certain feelings?

Yep ... as bad as it may sound if i could eliminate 'gay' feelings i'd do it...even
if it meant losing all feelings of attraction.

Earlier this year i tried something to do just that...(not drugs) this involved a
couple diff pieces of audio software & 2 computers...if i had a ton more time
to devote to it, i believe it _might_ even work. A this point i just don't have
the time, so i've temporally given up.

What's wrong with gay feelings then 72jay? What's wrong about them for you? Too much pressure? Too much ill feeling? Too weird? Too uncomfortable? Too unnatural?

What's wrong with gay feelings then 72jay?

Nothing wrong with gay feelings, and i have nothing against anyone who
is gay/bi/etc (just wanted to state that to make sure my posts aren't
taken the wrong way here)

What's wrong about them for you?

Probably mostly how i was raised (I'm sure allot of people have this...) -
homophobic family (esp my mother) , same goes for the place where i live.
I wouldn't want it known that i'm bi

Too much pressure? Too much ill feeling?

No ill feeling, but i guess somewhat pressure to be 'normal'

Too weird? Too uncomfortable? Too unnatural?

The weird thing is around certain people i get this feeling (can't really explain
it) but sorta an internal attraction ... in either case of male or female it feels
natural (but also kinda uncomfortable (probably because i'm shy))

I live a fairly sheltered life...and pretty much wasted my youth...i never
went out or partied or clubbing or anything (& still don't)...its just not my
thing. I also never messed around dated or had a girlfriend (or boyfriend
either).
...now all i can say is i'm getting old LOL.

I like being single, but at the same time it'd be nice to have a girlfriend or
boyfriend ... (not really the right word since) not for sex but more so as a
really close/forever friend

no i wouldnt take something to make me straight but sometimes i have honestly wanted to be just so i could go with friends on couples holidays like my mates do, just little things like that, plus been gay can be hard sometimes, 2 friends said only last night they wouldnt want me to change for the world because its who i am, its part of my personality and i agree with them - and im very happy been me mile:

Why? What would be the joy of life if you lost all feelings of attraction?

I have to say I'd more than likely consider it.. And as 72jay said it is kinda down to the way I was brought up.. Mums fine with me being gay, and so are friends and family friends.. However dad, nan and other members wouldn't be as understanding..

And the kids factor.. Before I get boo'ed and hissed and reminded about adoption and all that jazz while being gay.. It isn't the same and it never would be. I'm not saying I'd love an adopted child less but it wouldn't be the same situation.

Its the whole idealogical of being straight.. growing up good job, nice house, huge wedding, stunning bride, having a little boy, a girl.. a sporty car but then a big 4x4 for the kids, getting the first dog.. seeing the kids grow up, first partners, grand kids, big family christmas's and all that I still find hard to let go of :S

And if im HONEST now?! The only thing that would make me try with a woman would be the kids factor which is completely wrong yup but >_<

since i've always been 100% single i don't think it'd make a real big difference
plus it'd get rid of that "he's cute" or "she's cute" thoughts and those
'sorta an internal attraction' feelings

Plus life sucks anyway, but for reasons other than mentioned here

Then you should definitely try 'friendship' for starters... or a partnership of some kind that doesn't involve sex.
