Do straight relationships seem strange/weird/not normal to you?

So a lot of people can't seem to wrap their heads around gay relationships - they don't think they're normal.

My question is do you see straight relationships as weird/unnatural/not normal?

I'm gay and to me straight relationships have always seemed strange and very unnatural. But that's just me. Interested to hear your thoughts....

 

Not at all. I do get embarrassed when I see PDA though, but that's with anyone regardless of sex.

 

No. Just like gay relationships aren't weird/unnatural/not normal.

 

Not really, but there is something that seems...off I guess.

 

I have no thoughts really either way but I wish there still wasn't the vast difference in acceptance e.g. lgbt+ couple walking hand in hand may get taunts or abuse.

Hetero couple snogging each other's face off not even the batting of an eye.

I don't like overly affectionate pda in public but I don't think anyone should have to censor just because they are an lgbt+ couple.

 

They're "normal" in the sense that they're everywhere and we grow up seeing them from an early age. Personally, I couldn't see myself in one, and find myself thinking, "They put up with THAT?!" more often. A lot of traditions we take for granted are artificial and man made.

 

YES I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN!!!!!

Yeah, I always look at straight couples and think, wow, that doesn't really seem natural to me. That's a bit strange.

Of course, I don't say anything. I just accept it and ignore it. Obviously.

 

In the instance of me thinking what it would be like if I were in a straight relationship, I find the thought weird. When it comes to other people being in a straight relationship, not really.

 

I don't have a problem with straight couples but acceptance for LGBT couples still has a long way to go! I wish we could be as open as we want to be.

 

No. But the idea of me only liking one gender is.

 

No!

Everything within nature is natural. Heterosexuality is just as natural as homosexuality. The “unnatural” argument used against gays is bollocks and it doesn’t suddenly make any sense if it is used against straight people.

The so called “norm” is defined by the majority, the average person. Heterosexuality is in fact “normal”.

Weird? If I had to imagine myself in a straight relationship, yes, it would definitely be weird to me. But I don’t have to do that so let’s just not do it.
That the majority of people are straight and live in straight relationships isn’t weird at all in my opinion though.
Without straight relationships I wouldn’t even exist to write that now.

As for PDA, I can’t stand anyone doing that whether they are straight or gay. It shows a lack of respect towards the other people around and is completely undisciplined and distasteful but that’s just my point of view.

 

Not really. I do sometimes get annoyed at unnecessary straight romance in movies though and I dislike heterosexual PDA. I guess a lot of my dislike stems from the fact that I can't be as open with any potential partners in the future, which is frustrating.

 

No--the only relationship I feel weird about is a dude with another dude, but that's because I'm pretty unattracted to dudes in general. I personally don't really see the appeal of two dudes together, but it doesn't disgust me or anything--love is love.

 

it's not that they look weird to me it's just.. when i see a hot girl being with a guy i say something like "why is she doing this to herself?"

 

Dopamine. Same reason for anyone.

 

No.

Being gay does not mean that I am grossed out or against heterosexuality.

 

Kind of, because sometimes I watch so much queer stuff on the internet that I kind of forget that hetero couples exist, so then I see them and I'm like "wtf, this is so weird."
But I don't mean it in a hateful way, just like "oh shit, I forgot this was a thing" :lol:

 

When ever 2 people are in a relationship anything can happen no matter what their orientation is. I think there are loving relationships, neutral ones more like roommates, and controlling ones, and violent ones. I think that are are not that many completely straight people, and sometimes we just do not fit in a box.

 

No .

 

I find straight relationships unnatural and I can't help thinking "Why the hell would a girl want to get a boyfriend?". I personally believe this is because I grew up believing men weren't good partners most of the time, so it's not related to my "gayness". I'm into men, actually.
