So, what percentage of men like cocks?

[UnderMyKilt]

Though it has increased over the last few decades, the percentage of men who have had any kind of relations with other men is still far less than anyone here assumes.

Literotica is a closed and cloistered society of mostly like minded, sexually adventurous, individuals and you can't assume that attitudes and experiences herein reflect those of society as a whole.

June 1, 2016
Florida Atlantic University
Summary:
"A new study shows a fundamental shift in Americans' attitudes about same-sex behavior. Since the 1990s, the percentage of adults who accept same-sex behavior has quadrupled, and those who have participated in same-sex experiences has doubled. These increases were among all generations, with Millennials leading the way. "

Yet, still,

"The percentage of men who have had sex with at least one man increased from 4.5 percent to 8.2 percent between 1990 and 2014." (Yet another recent study I read put the number at only 3.6%)

Study: Same-sex experiences are on the rise....

Americans accept and engage in same-sex experiences more than ever, study finds...

As a female athlete, and one that roomed with a gay male, I was around a lot of guys that were closeted gay or bisexual. In some cases, I found out because they were comfortable around me because I also had bisexual experiences. And I did not look at bisexuality as abnormal. A lot of males, especially athletes, put up a big macho front to over come their own gay curiosity. From my experience in that world, 30% of guys were involved in some way with another male. Some exclusively gay. Some bisexual. Some just liked sucking cock and getting jacked off. I have a pretty good sense of other men that would like to be with another male and probably another 20% would if no one knew. So in my opinion, I say 50% of males are interested in to some degree in having sex with another man. I think it is about the same for women as well.

I’m not an athlete since high school, but have never had any attraction to guys. My wife and I have many gay and lesbian friends but never discuss sex with them. Just normal friendships.

I forgot that I agree with you that more woman tend to be bi. What man or woman wouldn’t be tempted by a sexy female body?

This is a question that has always interested me.

As I've described myself on this forum, I'm a bi guy, although I've never had sex with a man. I prefer women on every level, but also like cocks. A lot.

Of course guys that identify as gay or bi like them, but what about self-identified straight guys? I totally get not being romantically or emotionally attracted to men. I get the cultural and societal pressures of denying any interest in and avoiding same-sex encounters and not wanting anyone to think you're gay. I totally get greatly preferring pussies over cocks.

But on a purely physical, primal level--are that many guys really repulsed by cocks? For instance, if they were secretly presented the fantasy scenario of a totally safe, totally private session of trading blowjobs with a guy, and they were guaranteed nobody would ever find out--how many men would genuinely have no interest in that?

My five or six closest guy friends are straight, most of them with wives/girlfriends. I know they all prefer women, but I don't know that I'd rule out any of them having a same-sex encounter. One of my closest friends went on a cruise by himself a couple years ago, and he said he got propositioned by a guy. He turned the guy down, but he was smiling as he told me this, and it was more of a "sorry, just a little too risky and not my preference" rather than "Oh, no way would I ever consider that!"

And of course, even straight guys can make the joke "if I could suck my own dick, I'd never leave the house!"

Now, I know some of you guys here have a lot more real-world experience than me when it comes to hooking up with guys, including "straight" guys, so I'd be curious to hear other opinions.

Maybe I'm just projecting, but my guess is that as far as secretly finding gay sex at least somewhat appealing on a physical level, the percentage is probably something like 70-80% of all men. Of course, for many reasons the percentage who would actually act on that is much smaller.

What do others think?

First of all, I think you have too much free time on your hands! Just kidding!!!

Seriously I am confused by your statement: "I'm a bi guy, although I've never had sex with a man."

If you have never had sex with a man, what makes you bi as opposed to bi-curious?

For me, it's all too much about labels. I am bi-sexual, I love women and I also enjoy sucking cock. Occasionally I bend over and get fucked.

I see "straight" guys posting that they want to get sucked by a guy...
Hello, then you are not straight!!!

Like guys who want to have a hookup for bareback safe sex... WTF is that???

Certainly the older I have got the more bi thoughtsvI have had but male or female.......no question which I would choose lol

Yes, I do have too much time on my hands, and I'm excessively self-analytical!

Well, when I was a virgin I knew I liked pussy, and when I actually experienced it, it was even better than I had imagined. And since puberty, I've been equally attracted to pussies and cocks. So even though I haven't had sex with a man, I don't really have any doubts that I'd enjoy it. The only thing I'm "curious" about regarding gay sex is how quickly I'd cum. So that's why I consider myself bisexual rather than bi-curious.

I kind of feel it's just a matter of being honest with yourself.

 

[Wanking_Frank]

I’m probably like most where this desire increases with age. Possibly just regret for not experimenting more when younger, but times are changing and it doesn’t have quite the stigma it used to 20 years ago.

I’ve got to believe if people are honest with themselves and don’t allow their religion to control them, that the number is quite high.

When craigslist was still active in personals the m4m dwarfed anything else. I didn’t even know that was a thing until a colleague told me about it. He claimed it was good entertainment but that was likely just bullshit. People look because they like what they see.

 

[Sensitivehead]

I'm one of the seemingly not unusual (here at least) older guys, and have surprised myself by becoming kind of "omnisexual" as I age. An earlier poster referred to men's egos and maybe they are onto something, and the waning of that macho bullshit as we age allows us to open up. Straight and Bi are just words to me. I don't do it all that often, but when the urge hits me I just love having a cock in my mouth, and mine in another guy's. And I always love pix of cock just as much as tits and pussy.

Attractive women still drive me happily nuts. But now attractive men also make me go weak at the knees - which sounds a bit like a cocksucker survival instinct doesn't it?

[AvgGuy01]

I would guess that 100% of the guys here, and a little less outside the internet...

 

[Seafoamzone]

this question may be more complicated than it first seems, as there are degrees of activity involved.
a lot of guys would get their cocks sucked in a gloryhole or in the dark somewhere if they didn't " know" who was doing the sucking. Other guys would fuck an ass under the same conditions with plausible deniability, at least to themselves, as to who they were ass deep in side of. Its a whole different level to knowingly engage in those activities.
A man really moves up the scale when he sucks cock or takes it in the ass , as you cant really deny what you are doing and that you enjoy it.
I would guess that about 20% of the population has had a gay or Bi experience at some time in their lives, or identifies as such, but i could be way off.

 

[TheFirmHand80]

I can dig futinari, because one can imagine they are genuinely women, but can't suspend my disbelief with live action. I'm a little gay for Blaire White

 

[bikurinpa]

All right, I appreciate the responses, but I kind of figured that virtually 100% of the guys on this forum like cock.

My question is what do you think about the general population of guys who identify as straight? Are they really, genuinely turned off by cocks?

On this forum it is probably 100% but in real life, or where can do a fair poll, I would guess 25-30%
I tried a poll on a open non biased forum before but it went strait to the bottom with very few results, so the poll was a dudd. maybe someone else can post one who has better luck with posting anything. I would love to know the percentage too!

 

[type11966]

Married straight guy here. Secretly want to 69 with a guy. Would love to have a close friend to explore with privately.

 

[fitandfresh]

Well

Sure know that feeling......or should I say would love to be feeling that lol

 

[Hitchiker69]

When I was I did a lot of hitch hiking, crossing the US several times. It was a perfect way to meet men for sex, since we would never see each other again and no one we knew at home would ever know what we did together.
I often got picked up by gay guys and offered sex on the spot, or an offer to spend the night at their place for sex.
I also met one fellow hitch hiker who played it the other way. He would offer blowjobs to every driver who picked him up, and he had a taker at least once a day. I never knew how many of thse drivers were otherwise straight, or how many had their first man/man sex with him.
I only had one 'straight' guy suck me. We'd been travelling together about a day and a half, and he noticed I'd had an erection the whole time. I guess he couldn't resist the opportunity to have anonymous sex with another man. He pulled over in the middle of the night, pulled out my cock and sucked to his satisfaction. Afterwards he must have felt ashamed and embarrassed, since he needed a lot of reassurance that he wasn't gay. I told him he wasn't gay, just had a healthy curiosity, like most men.

My guess is that most guys would have gay sex if there was a 100% assurance that no one else would ever know.

Absolutely agree

 

[bobb64]

I've sucked a lot of guys that I believe think they are straight and it was there first time so I guess a lot of men will try if they think no one will know

 

[fitandfresh]

Certainly agree more so I think with older guys

 

[bobb64]

they were all older and married

 

[fitandfresh]

they were all older and married

Thats what I think the older I have gotten the more curious I have become although in a straight choice fairly sure tge lassie would win hands down.

 

[bedroomexplorer]

I don't know the percentage and I doubt we ever will. I do think that if we could remove the perception of what it means to have a same sex encounter it would become much more accepted. When I was young I had no desire for sex with a man but I also had no problems with it. I just never thought about it. As my sexual interests expanded, it became something I thought about. My test has been if i come across some unexpected porn and it instantly excites me then i found it to be normal and that is how I came to my understand that I want to have sex with men. Some things work and some don't to turn us on. I think that a significant percentage of the population of men might have the same response if when they came across an image of male on male sex they enjoyed it for what it is rather than just having a knee jerk socialization response that says it is wrong and I can't enjoy it. I know how strong a community can install that general feeling in its members. I used to live in an area where same sex behavior was strongly condemned. I then moved to an area where it is very strongly accepted and it has an effect.

Nicely expressed....

I very much agree with your explanation...and as I've gotten older, the idea of m2m sex has become more and more intriguing to the point where I'm perfectly OK with having some encounters m2m...I do find some male sex much more arousing than others and I do have my own idea of what I'd like to do and what I don't want to do too....

Fun topic for a Skype chat, don't ya think?

 

[Hitchiker69]

I think it depends, in part, on the circumstances and location. When I was hitch hiking gay sex was rampant and frequent. I could have sex with a guy and never see him again, and no one else would know. That was very liberating. I had sex with men that I never would have if my activities were more widely known.
I've also lived in places where being bi was widely accepted, even expected. You could rightly assume if you lived in these areas most guys would be open to and available for some good gay sex. No one thought less of you for sucking cock. Rather it gave you some credibility. In these neighborhoods the gay % was close to 90%

 

[bobb64]

hitch hiking

when I was young and hitchin rides there was no doubt if the driver wanted to blow me or get blown that I would be happy to do it

 

[Hitchiker69]

I think many straight guys could be seduced in the right situation. 100% private and secure, in an accepting environment. Lots of guys would be willing to give cock sucking a try, maybe just receiving.
