Actually, human beings like what they want to like. Human being can change what they like whenever they really want to (the whole advertising business is predicated on the ability of human beings to change what they like).

But what a person presently likes is not necessarily indicative of an antisocial bias that needs to be corrected.

ALL straight men (Yes, ALL) don't want to perform oral sex on another man. (unless they are forced, have to is not want to)

Certainly doesn't mean that they like what they want to like.

Your argument is rather absurd.

Your bold: can you honestly say that you can change what you like whenever you really want to?

If you (the general term) really want something (for example: perform oral sex on another man), that means you are either a bi or a gay male. (which is nothing wrong), but please don't call you a straight man if you really want that sexual experience from another man.

Again: have to do something =/= really want something. If you have to fight your biological urge in order to achieve a certain goal, that is not "want" or "like". This is why "pray the gay away" is a total failure.

lol

Say a straight male saw a very attractive woman, and he got hot and bothered, the lady took off her top

"Oh, nice boobs" thought the straight man,

The lady took off her underwear,

There is something else in between her legs

The straight man is a transphobic just because he doesn't find that something extra between her legs sexually attractive?

You are asking for too much from others.

I guess if you are catfished it's OK too. Lies are permissible in that poster's world.

That is my question as well. I have never seen such preoccupation with other people's gender and sexual preferences as there is from the right wing. Bizarre.

If the liberals would stop bringing it up every milli-second, there would be no response from anyone.

Stop making it an issue, and the pushback will disappear.

Anthropologists and biologists estimate that there can't be more than 2-3% of persons naturally born without a proclivity to mate with the opposite sex.

The self-reporting surveys of 10% and more of persons either homosexual or bisexual are the results of people deciding for themselves what they like.

So, yes, there are straight men deciding that they enjoy oral sex with other men.

And I've met women who have told me directly that they decided to give up men for women.

I am a guy and not gay, so will not date another guy. There is no such thing as switching sex, and dude is a dude, and gal is a gal, and no amount of cutting, injections, and implanting will ever change that.
