I too have never understood the phrase "homophobic." A phobia is a fear. I am not afraid of homos. I just think they are disgusting. So I think "homodisgustis" is appropriate.

Before meeting Mrs. CPG, I dated a girl who floated a few trial balloons my way on being attracted to other women. She had a fling with her roommate in college, and still liked the occasional bi encounter. At the age of 24, I was too weirded out by it. A few years ago, my wife and I were watching a movie where two women had a brief bi affair (No, not a porn flick), and I mentioned my former girlfriend. She simply said, "It's not for me, but a lot more women swing that way than you would believe."

Well, I must testify here - it's important for me at this point in my life when I'm reaching middle age- that in my salad days I was molested, more than once, by other boys and young guys.
In those times, people didn't press charges for that kind of things, and it was usually laughed off.
I only told it to my parents once, when I was victim of violent mistreatement by a Chief Scout, but the other times I was too ashamed of it to talk about it to anybody, and psychological
I'm still ashamed of it, and I still don't understand my lack of reaction then - probably i was afraid, even frightened, or be branded a homo . I feel ashamed I didn't react "as a man would".
i think the youngsters who did that to me were trying to exert a power on me, some of them were absolutely straight.

I think you should just let things play out naturally. No praying or anything like that unless you're scared of turning into some type of psycho stalker type. THen you'd need professional help.
______________
A survey said that if a girl has a higher sex drive, and more easily aroused, then her sexuality is more fluid on the Kinsey Scale. She can easily move from one end to another. Supposedly, it's the exact opposite for men. The higher their sex drive, the more rigidly gay or straight they are.
______
I would describe experimentation like this: when one is in the 2-4 range on the scale. Not fully bi but not disgusted by it. Some things you need to experience for yourself to see if it's for you or not. Like a career path for instance. You study long hours to reach that law degree, then you ask yourself, is this what I really want to do? I'm miserable! What most do is change course! I think that's the "ah ha" moment most of you are describing. Not everyone has those moments about sexuality but MANY do.

You compare the number today to say 30 years ago and its like comparing chalk and cheese. What has caused it? hmmmm.
Good observation.

Because of the media. There is more sexualization of the "female form" and both men and women are affected by this. Women are being sexualized just like men through the television. Look at the number of shows and movies with women kissing than men kissing and the commercials that imprint the female form in a sexual way for both men and women to see.

Women are exposed to the bodies of women quite a bit through the tv today, which is way more than it was 30 years ago and opens up the gateway for bi-curious tendencies. Now there are some women who do not find out that they are lesbian until later in life or when they get married. What we are seeing are straight women who are developing these tendencies.

Even in women who have never slept with a woman or do not have the guts to do it........they fantasize about it and would do it if with the right woman.

Exactly my sentiments.

Capt. Dan obviously feels quite threatened by gays, or as he likes to call them "homos". I guess he finds lesbians equally as disgusting.

Gay men don't want you, Capt. Dan. They know you're hetero with a bad attitude. You're safe

I don't beleive Capt. DAn is homophobic just because he feels it's disgusting. Alot of people feel it's unnatural and gross to be with the same sex. I think too many gays try to shove it down people's throats. He can feel the way he wants just as you can feel the way you do. It doesn't make either of you right or wrong.
