Not sure if pomosexuality and mechaphile are true sexualities, but I know lttle about them so am willing to learn otherwise.

A pomophile is a person who avoids sexual orientation labels such as heterosexual and homosexual.

A pomophile is a person who avoids sexual orientation labels such as heterosexual and homosexual.

I know what it is, but I'm not sure that a person who chooses a sexual identitty or label (or not) is a sexuality.

Surely by calling oneself a pomophile it is a label anyway. Confusing ...

98.5% of the UK and USA, according to 2 huge studies are heterosexual. Which makes sense.

Stu
16-05-2011, 12:35 PM
That 2% figure has been debunked time and time again now by popular science. Most worthwhile conclusions remain ambiguous and say it can be anywhere from 2 to 13 percent which leaves a massive margin for error.

Even if it were true 2% is still a massive proportion of the population.

2 huge surveys. We rely on stats for everything we know about large numbers of people.

I know gays get pissed (too much time on entertainment forums makes them think there are more gays around) but thems the apples.

Stu

Obviously forums like this do not offer a proper reflection. I think everyone can admit to that.

I wouldn't even go much higher. 5 or 6% maybe ... and maybe even only with people my own age ... but 2%'s a load of muck I reckon.

So are you suggesting that some people are born paedophiles in the same way that some people are born homosexual? Therefore, paedophiles are only doing what comes naturally, and should not be condemned for their sexual behaviour against children?!

'Consent' pops in to say hi.

Paedos act on their desires - strong as they may be - by choice and without consent.

You cannot compare stats of people say, liking certain TV shows or what job they do or whether they own their own house or not, to something so complicated as not only defining but also willing to share and reveal your own sexuality in a survey.

Ticking a box is not always that simple. Therefore that % is seriously flawed.

There are many people who are married and closeted that would tick 'straight' for example.

As I say, I think surveys on sexuality are flawed. Full stop.

Sexuality is such a personal issue that you cannot gauge a reading with any accuracy.

Here's a point: Say the figure is 1.5% - for arguments sake. Now survey any muslim community. Not only would you get a figure of 0% (probably) but you would also be risking your safety even to ask such a question.

There are many cases of closest gay and bisexual people that would not make a survey of this kind accurate. Even when done anonymously.

not really

To assume your lesbian because your not attracted to men is probably a snap reaction which isn't the case. In honesty, I know it sounds cheesy but you probably haven't found the right person. Have you been exposed to a feeling of love with any human being yet? If not then how can one assume because you haven't experienced something means its not there.

That's natural to feel that way, me and pretty much every other gay/bi person I know felt exactly the same way before coming out, building it up to be one of the worst things in the world, then finding it actually more.. normal than you could have ever imagined. Though I do know this probably won't help because you'll still be worried as I and everybody else was, but when/if you do eventually feel comfortable enough about it to be completely open about it, you'll be surprised at how many people really don't mind/care about what you are.

Well disappointed doesn't necessarily mean they'll hate you for it or something. It might take them a little while to get used to it at first but its a big announcement to make right? If they are intolerant of who you are though then that isn't right and after all you were born this way. ;) (Couldn't resist making that Gaga reference :tongue:)

thank you, and honestly it does help. Earlier I was starting to regret saying anything but I think it will help me. I know that in the end it will all be okay, its just that i don't know where to start and how I will get there.

Ninastar, I wouldn't worry too much about labelling yourself anything other than 'You'.

At this stage don't worry about coming out and how to come out until you feel completely ready for it. Take your time - it's your time.

I waited until my parents more or less 'knew' I was gay before I mentioned it. I only sat them down because they were worrying about me as they didn't know another gay person and I had to explain that I was sensible, could look after myself and that there wasn't a problem.
