I've never known of someone who's actually straight suddenly becoming bisexual/gay. I suspect the woman was always bicurious or something. As a straight person, if every man on Earth died due to some horrible catastrophe, I'd just be a hermit for the rest of my life. My gay friend has told me he'd do the same. I'm thinking anyone who starts playing for the other team was somewhere in the gray area of the sexuality spectrum rather than at either extreme.

I met a guy who was married with kids and years later, heard he was divorced with a same sex partner. So you never know what happens down the road, when it comes to people's sexuality. However I think what the picture was trying to implicate, is that it won't matter what gender the person is if they make you happy. (In more ways then one) Really when it's the right person anything can be compromised, idealistically. I agree though that people are not always as flexible as a wet noodle when it comes to things like sex or pizza. Neither is the notion that sexuality is a premises for a person's identity as well.

It's really hard to say what happened with him, though. It's entirely possible he was gay but didn't want to come out or was in denial and tried to live a "normal" life with a woman, but eventually couldn't take it anymore and left.
I can tell you right now the most wonderful woman in the world will not inspire me to sexually desire her. We could be amazing friends, but I simply could not be attracted to her body.

I don't think people can change sexuality preferences just by meeting the right person.

Hence why I said "Idealistically", Hahaha The reality is it's not a simply fluid thing where one can flip a coin overnight (no doubt some people like to talk that though) nor is it perfectly defined either. It comes down to the person ultimately in who they want to plug/be plugged by. However some people like myself (I'm a young innocent virgin ripe for sacrifice) don't exactly know so, yeah it complicated like alot of things. Except we all know that bodybuilding is an absolute certainty of awesomeness!

I'm unsure what role idealism has in this simply because in reality, you're straight, in between, or gay. You're somewhere on that spectrum (I'm ignoring here all the fancy terms for various subcategories of attraction like pansexuality). You can have all kinds of noble ideas about who you can be attracted to, but those ideas are not going to translate into physical attraction. You can't force yourself to be attracted to someone no matter how much you like them as a person. That's just not how physical attraction works, unfortunately. Edit: Some people also identify as asexual. That's not relevant here, but I wanted to include it in my list.

Well I didn't know the guy all that well as he was at at one of parent's parties but he seemed to me that he was happy with his wife and kids at the time, but I guess not hahaha Whatever, as long as people are content and not fucking each other over in a bad way. As for the idealism well what I was inferring is that anything is possible. I guess I was looking at the more romantic idealism of when you love someone you become physically attracted to them but we all know that is near to non-existent in the world. I'm not saying it's likely to happen. People can change and still be consistent that they have the hots for men or women consistently and other people change preferences over time due to them being in the gray area to begin with or due to circumstances or some other stuff. Again nothing is written in stone about attractions, some people are malleable over time with whom they are attracted to and other are dead set on what they like and are not going to change.

At least for this part, that's my choice. Love can be complicated, but if you haven't tried some partners before (women in my case), how do you know this one is the right one? > The bodybuilding part, that's an art, the art of building a sexy body.
