Can you be straight and still like gay porn?
-
The big problem is trying to boil down the complexities of arousal so that it fits conveniently into one of those simple straight/bi/gay boxes.
I won't assume to talk for anybody else but here is my personal perspective.
I am a straight man and the majority of my porn consumption is straight stuff but I do occasionally dip into bi and gay porn.
I have no desire for a romantic relationship with another guy.
I have no attraction to male facial features or the male body, with one notable exception…the cock! I am greatly aroused by seeing a nice, well proportioned, hard cock in action.Of course, there is plenty of cock in regular straight porn but bi/gay porn tends to give cock much more focus. When a bate session and my mood takes me in that direction then it usually ends up with bi/gay porn being my choice of playlist.
Just my 2p on it
May I ask when you watch gay porns, are you aroused by them with a hard-on?
For the right content, most definitely!
A good blowjob scene or mutual masturbation / circle jerk is always a winner. Frottage and I'm good and throbbing!!
Anal…I can take or leave really...depends on the mood. -
its weird cause seems i get aroused mostly by just projecting with guys… like... i have a dick. i know what it's like. i can relate. i can almost feel it. but nothing really gets me going like a glorious boner all the way down to the base. oh and the genuine "purrs" of ecstasy oooh yeah; where you can hear them riding the edge, where you HAVE to let something out or you will cum.
but women? who knows whats going on there.
even with sex, i still kinda get off on fucking, and knowing exactly what i'm doing. like i can imagine we are both myself and i am fucking myself and that can get pretty :cheesy2:
maybe im actually secretly asexual and get off by narcissistic projection xD
i still don't understand how other (straight) guys can't do this (although, seems most actually can, if they're horny enough to stop thinking)
for me, porn is there to get me horned up enough that i can't think of anything but my dick and the pleasure it's giving me >:D. at that point i couldn't really care less. and the most effective way to get there for me, is to see other guys in that state
so if straight guys are to enjoy gaypron… probably it would be something like this... maybe...

Seems odd to me, but I hear it is a thing. According to a Cosmo article:
https://www.cosmopolitan.com/sex-love/a5280496/straight-men-watch-gay-porn/
"When researchers led by Martin J. Downing, PhD surveyed 821 men about their porn-viewing habits, they found that 55% of gay men reported watching opposite-gender-oriented porn in the previous six months, while 21% of straight men reported watching same-sex porn in that time frame."Or for a comedic take, here is a Youtube video called Straight Guys Watch Gay Porn
Youtube Video -
Given that some guys identify as straight, but still like to be anally stimulated, I would say so.
-
Oh yes of course, we all have sexual desires and sexual activities that we like to see but don't want wish to do.
I know a straight guy that gets off on watching guys kissing, jacking off or just naked bonding.
I also know a number of lesbians that really enjoy watching gay male porn.
-
Just my two cents, In the other way around. I'm gay and like Straight porn. Something nice about seeing how a guy interacts with a woman :). (Yeah, I'm probably looking at the guy more than the girl).
Never been with a girl in the real world.
-
Of course, just as people may like kiddos porn but they're not pedos, it seems to works the same.
-
The short answer: No.
The long answer: No. even if I watch straight porn, my main focus is on the male. and stop lying to yourself!
-
Why not? I know Straight Girls who like lesbian porns.
-
Doubtful.
We’re attracted to and aroused by certain things. If you’re not attracted to someone, what they do sexually will hardly arouse you. For ‘straight’ people to say they are completely straight but are attracted to and aroused by gay porn, that’s a blatant lie. There’s got to be some sort of attraction the viewer sees in the person or object that’s doing the sexual act in order for him/her to get aroused.
Example: a 100% hetero man would likely be attracted to and aroused by women rubbing lotion on her boobs. He would NOT be attracted to, thus not AROUSED by, another man rubbing lotion on his chest. If he is, then there’s some bisexuality in him.

Can a gay guy like straight porn? I would say yes.

I think so.
I lived in a place don’t have many foreigners, I’m very curious about the hidden part of other races for the beginning. the difference race people’s body feature makes my very curious, I can get most of those stuff from a porn movie, the gay porn gives me the most help in male part, different colors of eye hair and skin, different shapes of dicks asshole, in gay porn you even can see more details in special part such as the asshole and deep asshole very amazing you could never seen it in real life. Now the curious is abit down, bcos I find it’s not big difference here and there, the dick head have the most diversity, more than 10 unique shapes, In public bathroom we always compare our ball and dick size in group, most of us are in same race so it’s really looks the same, but if an other race come here, I think you will become the spotlight of bathroom everyone will stop to watching you, children will come to touch your skin or hair. I’m now change my curiosity to the smell, which can’t get from the porn. but I can get it from a website where i ask for some results, there are different races people, they are glad to share there personal odor. so I record it in race classification. by compare to my personal odor, I can get the difference. actually I think there are only 3 different kind of odor, and which is food related. after my curiosity is fixed, gay porn become less attractive. -
Can a gay guy like straight porn? I would say yes.
Not really the same. A gay guy looking at straight porn still has a naked guy to look at. A straight guy looking at gay porn is missing the woman he is supposedly attracted to.

Exactly. I, a gay male, do watch straight porn sometimes, but I always focus on the guy. I would assume other gay men who watch straight porn do the same thing- if not, then they’re likely bi to a degree. Same logic for straight men… they also watch straight porn, but they (should) focus on the girl if he’s truly straight.
Because men are visual creatures, the same can’t be said about gay porn or lesbian porn:
- If a man watches lesbian porn and is attracted to and aroused by what he is seeing, then he’s obviously not gay. He likes what he sees in the videos: women, NOT men.
- If a man claims he is straight, but watches gay male porn exclusively and is attracted to and aroused by what he sees, then he’s obviously not straight because there’s no women as the subject, just men. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be aroused by what he’s seeing.

interesting. I guess what arouses each person is different
-
honestly sexuality doesn't really matter, as long as it gets you off it shouldn't really matter what type of porn. As long as you enjoy it and can relax.
-
Yes. Sexuality is not a black and white dichotomy. People's interests range. I've met a couple into swinging where the husband is straight (i.e. completely uninterested in the male body) but is also into inversion (he likes to play as a sub). That led to some interesting progression where he would let his wife, and eventually me, fuck him.
People can get hard in all sorts of "non-conventional" interactions. It can be all about the kink. Sometimes the interest in the situation is bigger than then interest in the bodies performing it.

Please believe what I am about to tell you. The answer is an unequivocal and absolute YES. Despite our needs to put everything into neat categories and dichotomies in society to make it easier for us to judge others and make ourselves feel superior- sexuality defies this kind of classification. I do not believe anyone is 100% straight or 100% gay- sexuality is better looked at as falling along a spectrum, just like any other attribute/defining characteristic that can't be genetically/biologically traced, identified, or tested for. I myself am a 30 year old male who came out as gay six years ago. I've been on this site far longer than that, of course. I tried for so long to be straight, or "bi-sexual"- I both dated (and slept with) girls in high school AND in college. My rationalization for not coming out prior to when I did was that since I was physically able to get it up for girls (most of the time) and I enjoyed sex with girls (or at least seemed by all accounts to be good at it), then why should I have to acknowledge the fact that I only watch gay porn and that the thought of hooking up with another guy is my true fantasy? The reason is that I was lying to myself and my attraction to girls/women was completely programmed by societal norms and expectations. Coming out as gay or even bisexual terrified me because it seemed like I would be actively (and perhaps needlessly) making my life SO much more difficult- risk my family no longer loving and supporting me the way they always had, risk my friends abandoning me because I had essentially been lying to them (and myself) for so long and so not only was I going to have to admit I licked dick but also that I had been hiding it from them and "pretending" to like pussy for so long- so I was not only a closeted fag, but a disingenuous one- who wants to be that? To anyone else in this situation, JUST COME OUT. Unless it risks physical harm to you (you have an abusive parent or partner or something who would threaten your life/well-being) than the SOONER you accept it and do it the HAPPIER you will be! TRUST ME. If I could go back in time I would come out in elementary school if I could have- but definitely middle or high school- certainly college. Now I look back and think about how things might have gone if I hadn't chose to wear this mask for so long and just accepted who I was and what my true sexual orientation (not PREFERENCE, ORIENTATION) was. You want to know how to know whether you're mostly gay or straight? I can tell you how. And it has very little to do with what kind of porn you watch (although it is true that most gay men get off to watching two men have sex and most straight men enjoy watching a man and a woman or two women- here's a question I've always wondered- shouldn't straight women also be huge fans of gay man on man porn? You always hear about girls who say they think it's hot, but why isn't it as much of a common factoid as straight men who enjoy watching two women? The same logic should apply to straight women (women who are mostly into dick/men) enjoying watching two men- should it not? Something to think about). Anyways here's how you can tell whether you fall closer to gay or straight on the spectrum. Ready? Lie down on your bed or couch or somewhere comfortable where you are by yourself and are not in a stressful state of mind. Close your eyes and try to relax. Take a few deep breaths until you feel perfectly comfortable, calm, and at ease- like you could probably fall asleep if you wanted to. Then ask yourself this question: "What is your true ultimate fantasy when it comes to sex?" That is, if you were Neo in the Matrix or woke up in a dream in which you could control anything and everything- and thus had the ability to make any scenario a reality- what would you do to get yourself off? If you're a guy, what thought makes your dick so hard you feel like it's going to break off? If you're a girl, what makes you wetter than you've ever been in your life and feel like you're going to go nuts if you don't have something inside you? I'm assuming you're a guy given that you're posting on here and are anxious about what liking or being able to get off to gay porn might mean about your sexual orientation. Like I said, it means very little. The more important question is the one I just suggested you posed to yourself in a state of relaxation (because this will make it more likely that you will be able to be HONEST with yourself, let go of any negative implications and just think about and honestly allow yourself to explore the question of "WHAT WOULD TURN ME ON THE MOST IN THE WORLD/UNIVERSE?)". Ultimately the answer to that question- the real answer- that if you're gay and in the closet you have probably always felt on some level may be true but been too terrified to entertain, especially given that all the men (and women) around you are presumably straight and you don't act or sound gay or speak or move your hands in any flamboyant or manneristic way that is so commonly portrayed in the media as how ALL GAY MEN ACT (we DON'T- if anything we tend to be more masculine than straight men, believe it or not)- will reveal this to you. What it boils down to more than what porn you like most is what is your ultimate fantasy? Does it involve you putting your dick into a woman or a man? Or having a man put his dick inside you? Does the thought of sucking a nice big dick sound hot or disgusting to you? Chances are, if the sight of two men blowing each other, rimming each other, and then fucking each other is what makes it easiest and quickest for you to get hard, jerk yourself off, and climax (aka cum)- then you are probably more gay than straight. What happens when you watch two women going down on eachother? Do you get hard at all? How about a man and a woman fucking? Anything happen down there when you watch that? I know plenty of straight guys who will admit to me that watching two women does absolutely NOTHING for them- even they will admit to me that they just need to see a dick going into a hole- whether it's an ass or a vagina. Some straight guys have even admitted to me that they've fantasized about jerking off with another guy, or letting a guy give them head, or even fucking a guy (most don't fantasize about being fucked, or at least none of the guys I've met who have shared stuff with me have confessed to that). It's even considered normal in developmental psychology for straight boys (boys who will grow up to be primarily heterosexual men- more attracted to women than men) to have at least one isolated homosexual experience in their early teen/adolescent/young adult years. I remember being mad when I read this because this never happened to me- as much as I would have loved if it had- because ALL of the guys I had crushes on throughout my entire childhood and adolescence/young adult life were quintessentially straight-acting and seemingly completely heterosexual boys who had no interest in doing anything sexual with me- and instead were the type who got with a lot of girls and enjoyed bragging about it. I don't know how many times I would get hard hearing these guys telling me about a girl sucking their hard dick until they busted in her face or down her throat or how they fucked a girl so hard they had to put a sock over their mouth to stop them from screaming so loud they woke up their parents. That shit was hot even though they were describing heterosexual sex because just the thought of them having sex was enough to turn me on. So don't get bogged down with worrying about what the porn you watch says about you and try to focus more on deciphering what your ultimate fantasy is- because that's the question that will ultimately help you figure out whether you're more into dick or vagina. If it's the former, it's OK- and you will be OK. If anything, you'll be much happier coming to terms with it- and the sooner you do that the easier it will be on you. Your parents and family members will still love you (if not, they don't truly love you now), your friends will not abandon you (if they do, they were never true friends), and you will be able to stop feeling ashamed of what kind of porn you watch and recognize that it just means something about two guys fucking is hot to you (guess what, it IS hot and you are far from alone in thinking so). So my advice is this: give yourself a break, watch whatever kind of porn you want, andthat don't worry about it's implications for your sexuality. Instead, use the other question to figure that out and once you do, put down the burden of lying to yourself about what DOESN'T turn you on (even if that is women/vagina). Best of luck to you my friend.
I did not know that this was a 1000 word essay test but i do believe you can still be straight even if you watch gay porn. Gay porn isnt just about sex there are other aspects of it that could be appealing to hetero men or women.

When I've checked out Straight porn it hasn't been the plumbing that turned me off.
The women look artificial. The men might as well be dildos. The two don't seem to be into one another on any level other than the most literal. They just don't look like they're having any fun.
I knew a straight guy who liked gay porn since he could connect to the guys having fun. -
I totally believe there can be a split between who you love and what REALLY turns you on. But my question if I were you is this, if gay porn turns you on so much can you really live your entire life without ever actually experiencing it? Next, if you were to actually experience it and LIKED it, then what? I think the only person who really needs that question answered is you (For the purpose of your original post) If there is some part of you that yearns to feel what they are feeling in the videos you owe it to yourself and any future mates to discover the answer.
I have had flings with DL married men (not intentionally) who went the denial route, got married only to find their curiosity never went away, and once they experienced it they found they would have chosen otherwise. THAT is grossly unfair to the women they married, in many cases kids are now involved - they deprived the woman the chance to make her best decision, and now if they leave she is left to try and find a new mate with 2 or 3 kids jamming up her pimp hand. Bad idea. They also encounter some hostility in the men they encounter, certainly had I known in advance they were married I personally would never have considered them, for all of the reasons already outlined.
The fact you are here asking tells me you likely know what you need to do. Always follow your gut.
