If I’m A Straight Guy Who Likes Anal Sex, Does That Make Me Gay?

If I’m a straight guy who likes anal play, does that make me gay?

Nope.

Not even close.

Lots of straight men around the world enjoy anal sex. And that doesn’t make them gay.

Let’s be clear. This really isn’t complicated:

• Liking the SAME gender.
• Liking a different gender.

BIG difference!

In fact, a recent US study found that 44 percent of straight men under 50 have had anal sex at least once. So gay or straight, you may enjoy anal sex.

Another thing to note is that if you are a man having anal sex with men that does not make you gay, either.

It may make you bisexual (having sex and relationships with both men and women).

It may make you heteroflexible (having sex with varied genders, but having emotional relationships with women only).

Of course, you may just be gay.

And that’s cool. Or homoflexible (having sex with varied genders, but having relationships with men only).

Or you may be your own thing.

And gay sex isn’t just anal sex. A 2011 study found that only just over a third of gay men surveyed said they had anal sex last time they made love. So, not even gay men are always having rump romps.

Do not let one sexy fun action define you or your lover.

You are what you are.

And engaging in or avoiding anal sex will not change who you are, or prevent you from being exactly that.

Have you heard this question before? Or had it yourself? Does this help answer it?
