Sexual Orientation

[catscradle]

damoyre passed the link along, and it looked interesting enough:

Gay Preference You scored -18 (-52 being completely gay, 0 being bisexual, and 52 being completely straight)

You are not exclusively homosexual, but you prefer the same sex over the opposite sex. While you might be willing to fool around with the opposite sex to some extent, you would go all the way with the same sex. If you are sexually inexperienced, it is possible that this could change after you do some experimenting.

My test tracked 1 variable How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 11% on Orientation

Not too surprising all things considered, but it does have me wondering a few things about myself. I really don't find the male anatomy all that arousing (unless it's doing things with the male anatomy of another and then - why yes it IS arousing). The penis is just not much to look at. But its very practical in certain cases and I do appreciate the sensation if not the aesthetics. The female form is much more pleasing to my eye, though I don't see the delicate petals of a flower that Georgia O'Keefe seems to see in the vagina, but hey, as an artist vision I like it.

What I've noticed about myself is that I care nothing for the visual in terms of attraction. I only find myself attracted to people after I know them. Is this TMI? I just erased a whole two paragraphs of stuff that was way TMI. See? Sometimes my filters work.

You're a fruitcake. xD

TMI - what's that?

Anyway, are we gonna shack up? *kisses rampantly*

I said we would! In that $1,095,000 house I found last week wilst taking a walk. We'll have to paint that fire engine red wall another color though.

It was just me rambling for about two paragraphs on nothing. I went back and reread it and it made no coherent sense. Which pretty much typify most of my posts, but sometimes I catch it ;)

As I understand thats a condition caused by being female. Though I have heard at times that a women know from the first time they ever see a person whether or not they will ever sleep with them. Personal research finds this to be untrue.

It's definitely more typical of women, but on a more primal level we can concentrate on the phenotypical with the best of men. From my own experience with my female friends, most women find their initial attraction is physical. I think the main difference is that women tend to move on after the carnal phase has past (which admitedly can be a short as 15 minutes), where as men kinda linger there a while. I guess what I'm trying to say is, unless you're Johnny Depp, that initial primal attraction just doesn't happen for me.
