I'm just wondering because I hear this a lot, yet it makes absolutely no sense to me. Whether a person/couple is straight, gay/lesbian, or bisexual, I am NOT thinking about them having sex.

The reality is that if you judge gays by what kind of sex YOU THINK they're having you clearly have an overactive imagination, and perhaps a bit of curiosity!

Did you already answer your own question or do you expect to have other opinions?

Personally, not really.

For the most part, they seem like nice people. I'm sure there are some that aren't nice, though.

I've always wondered how they came out to their parents. It must take a lot of guts. I wouldn't know, I'm not gay...

If it's an attractive lesbian couple it may not be the first thing I think of, but it's one of the first things.

I think the answer for most people is likely "yes." For myself... I'd also say yes. However, it stops there. Everything else in a homosexual relationship is pretty much the same, at least from someone looking from the outside in. I have two lesbian couples in my family and some gay neighbors. Past their sexual nature, everything else about them as a couple is normal. And since they aren't having sex with me, what difference does it make?

No I don't. I don't think about anyone having sex except myself lol! And I don't care who anyone has sex with except my husband.

That said, I do think people focus on gay sex too much. Like all gay people are having sex 24/7 or something and I see it as ridiculous. I also feel that that is the reason why so many people are quick to say stereotypical things about homosexuals or support discriminatory laws against them. Those people can't get their minds out of the gutter.

I always wonder why they don't think of heterosexual sex as often - there are some super freaky hetero people and I would bet most of them have (I'm about to be blatant here so sensitive souls stop reading) had anal sex or used dildos and all sorts of kinky things that they look down on homosexuals for doing (FWIW, like I said, don't care about homosexual sex and don't know what they do and don't really want to know just like I don't want to know about anyone's sex life).

The only thing that distinguishes a straight person from a gay person is the sex acts. Straight people can be into interior design and talk with a lisp and still be straight. Gay people can be tough, muscular, and addicted to football and they are still gay. Straight guys can have "bromances" which have a lot of qualities that resemble homosexual relationships but without the sex. So yes, its the sex that distinguishes gay from straight and only that.
