Genital Arousal and Sexual Behavior (I’m back)
A new study claims that there are no bi men, only gay, straight and lying ones.
In the new study, a team of psychologists directly measured genital arousal patterns in response to images of men and women. The psychologists found that men who identified themselves as bisexual were in fact exclusively aroused by either one sex or the other, usually by other men.
I have a problem with this relationship between what arouses a person and what their identity and actual sexual behavior is. I don’t doubt that I can be aroused by many types of people, but I have no desire to sleep with most of them and they have no affect on how I identify.
Seated alone in a laboratory room, the men then watched a series of erotic movies, some involving only women, others involving only men.
Not exactly reading most of my partners as women or men, should I not get aroused by almost all porn? That’s ridiculous. I get aroused by the right commercial.
I know. This study is about men and I’m not a man. But I wouldn’t mind testing it out for a little while.

Did you miss me while I was gone? I missed you.
Big thanks to Jen for her help while I was gone! :)
I had *exactly* the same problem with this study and even got into a discussion of it over lunch with a dyke friend who pretty much bought it.
Yes, *of course* we missed you (though we love Jen too); welcome back.
Damn, girl, why did you turn me onto B-F? I will quickly become addicted. :)
Addiction isn’t always a bad thing. ;)
