I would probably be in the same boat if my wife wasn't bisexual (I WAS in the same boat growing up in high school in the red state of Alaska). Thanks to my wife, I have been exposed quite a bit to the LGBT community.

In the end, there is no binary straight-gay. There's a scale from straight to gay depending on behaviors and attitudes towards particular stimuli. They use the Kinsey Scale in relevant sociological research:

0 Exclusively heterosexual
1 Predominantly heterosexual, only incidentally homosexual
2 Predominantly heterosexual, but more than incidentally homosexual
3 Equally heterosexual and homosexual
4 Predominantly homosexual, but more than incidentally heterosexual
5 Predominantly homosexual, only incidentally heterosexual
6 Exclusively homosexual
X No socio-sexual contacts or reactions

So if you just blew a tranny once but are generally attracted to women, you'd be a 1.

This scale is based on actual sexual interactions and not sexual desire? That doesnt seem like a good way to rate people.

And yes, I know I could respond in the creepy animal thread, but it's a dead thread and I don't want to necro-bump it. And honestly, why not just talk about it here? A decent conversation would actually make this thread worth reading, instead of just being the big joke that everyone is treating it as.
