Shocked wow guess some of you guys have never been into gay clubs or transexual clubs! growing up in sydney I had a few gay friends, and at times we would get dragged into some hardcore gay clubs, becuase thats all thats going on at 9am after a rave! and seeing that we just popped another E at like 8:30am we needed somewhere to go..
and MAN!!! the chit I saw hahahaha I was like telling my friends DONT LEAVE ME ALONE! we all stayed together like pack animals...
but that was the first 20minutes but once you are off you begin to notice that sure gay people are horney but if you tell them your straight they just fool around and flirt with ya and thats about it, but going to the toilet was always a mission!
again that was when I was like 18-22 years old.. doubt very much gays would find me sexy anymore anyway hahahahaa
and I havent been in a gay club since 2000 when I visited some old friends in sydney..
but also working in hospo,, clubs, cafes, restaurants you meet so many gay staff.. and they always throw good parties and know where to the get best Drugs. not to mention are nice people..

homophobic? naaaa.. but once my room mate who was gay, brought back 5 guys and they had an orgy, and I could hear them smaking each others asses from living room that was time for me to go outside for a walk hahahaha

later that night, I was in the kitchen he comes in and says!
ohh sorry about noise mate, had a few mates over for a *beep* session! Shocked

I guess being homophobic all depends on if you have been exposed or not to it...

Is homophobia associated with homosexual arousal?

Adams HE, Wright LW Jr, Lohr BA.

Department of Psychology, University of Georgia, Athens 30602-3013, USA.

The authors investigated the role of homosexual arousal in exclusively heterosexual men who admitted negative affect toward homosexual individuals. Participants consisted of a group of homophobic men (n = 35) and a group of nonhomophobic men (n = 29); they were assigned to groups on the basis of their scores on the Index of Homophobia (W. W. Hudson & W. A. Ricketts, 1980). The men were exposed to sexually explicit erotic stimuli consisting of heterosexual, male homosexual, and lesbian videotapes, and changes in penile circumference were monitored. They also completed an Aggression Questionnaire (A. H. Buss & M. Perry, 1992). Both groups exhibited increases in penile circumference to the heterosexual and female homosexual videos. Only the homophobic men showed an increase in penile erection to male homosexual stimuli. The groups did not differ in aggression. Homophobia is apparently associated with homosexual arousal that the homophobic individual is either unaware of or denies.

Peer reviewed and all.

Fascinating, but were there no homosexuals in the non-homophobic group? It seems odd that none of them would respond to homosexual stimuli.

While the study confirms what we already knew, has it been replicated in the literature?

The phrase "homophobic" implies fear. I don't fear them any more than I do any other disease carrying vermin. I just don't touch anything they touch and wear gloves if I have to! You never know what diseases the AIDS vectors are spreading given the fact they are mentally and physically diseased.

Kind of like an animal with rabies, you never know what it's going to do. But it's better to put them down than take chances!

^Wow. Drunk I hope.

Yeah I'd say few straight guys can comfortably watch guys kiss. As the above post demonstrates, the fear is everywhere. Mentally and physically diseased eh? Like a schizophrenic parent or brother with cancer?

No homosexuals in the study group.

I havent found any attempt to replicate this so far.

One of the best nights out in itaewon is homo hill next to hooker hill; they have some very friendly bars playing good music with a good mix of straight, gay, male, female etc. It is also a really great place to pick up women; you often get hot k-girls in there that show up with their gay male friends who suddenly realize they�re not getting too much attention from most blokes in there and are only too pleased to knock back a few drinks with any guys who show some interest.
I remember one night I was out with a kiwi mate and a Korean colleague who was so blitzed that he didn�t realize that the 6� 2� woman he was chewing the face off was actually a trannie � she had great *beep* though & let everybody cop a feel.

I prefer watching 2 hot chicks making out in public. If there is a choice between 2 dudes kissing or 2 fat disgusting chicks, I choose the former.

People making out are people making out. I don't really care. My best friend is a lesbian and I've never cared about seeing her make out with other women.

I guess for most straight men raised in America like me, the only problem I have with gays is when they want to change laws. Then I can say, hey, anyone who believes in alternative marriage has a right to speak out: the guy who wants to marry his sister, the Islam or Mormon guy who wants to have ten wives, the twelve year old who wants to marry the school teacher. Oh yeah, it's all real love they tell the judge, but why do gays get a free pass and all those others I just mentioned get labeled as freaks?

A 12 year old is not sufficiently mature to make a decision regarding sex and marriage, at least in the VAST majority of cases, so there is really no comparison to two consenting adults making a similar decision about a life partnership.

That's pretty sick of YOU to suggest a parallel, BTW!

No, it isn't. You have to draw the line somewhere. Two cohabiting sodomites do not a marriage make. It's only 2 mentally diseased perverts infecting each other and pretending it's a relationship.

Dude, haven't you read the research? You're repressed. Very repressed. Let it go and have some fun. Watch some gay porn and see your penile circumference grow.
