IS IT POSSIBLE TO SYSTEMATILLY TURN GAY PEOPLE STRAIGHT?

• I don’t have any reason to spect that he is gay or even bi. • Could a straight guy get dnk enough to fool around wh another guy jt bee “felt good”, or is more likely that he has some gay/bi/cur feelgs that perhaps he’s been reprsg? Even acuntg for the fact that he might remember some of what happened, don't mean he's bisexual, secretly gay, or that you're his magil "exceptn." He was dnk out of his md.

I don't know many gay men (myself clud) who hasn't veloped a csh or had feelgs for a straight guy - cludg straight iends. They are not terted a romantic relatnship wh you; if they were they'd e out as bisexual or gay. I've seen other gay guys that fell for a straight guy (typilly a iend) and wanted to lu themselv to believg that a relatnship was possible.

AM I GAY?

It don't bother me that I fooled around wh another guy (other than the fact I enabled him to cheat); I'm gay after all. Sce when do you not remember your bt iend that is a gay male suckg your dick.

I’ve told you that I don’t thk this mak you gay or even bi, but ’s not like you n jt prt off this post and show to your girliend as proof. So until they fd themselv a siar suatn, they don’t see how n be possible for a straight person to have a sexual experience wh a person of the same sex and not be gay or at least bisexual.

I read this thread earlier and told one of my very few gay iends about and he said the same thg had happened to him. Sadly for him he is one of those gay guys who is attracted to very straight guys.
