Default If you could switch your orientation, what would it be?

If you had one wish to be able to change your sexual orientation once and it would be permanent due to this, what would you choose? And why?

I'd be bi.
Best of both worlds.

Yes, I did just knowingly quote Hannah Montana.

If asked this last year or years ago I would wish to be straight. But now that I'm happy and have support and friendship of people who matter, I'm happy being gay, so I'm here to stay.

Straight hands down.
I don't mind being bisexual, but I would save myself a lot of heartache if I stopped crushing on women who were straight. But as it stands, I can't really choose.

... Maybe I'm just in a foul mood today.

Default Re: If you could switch your orientation, what would it be?

Though being Bisexual would provide more variety, I still would hate to be attracted to women. So ill stick being Homosexual. Not like being straight or Bi would increase my chances of getting a date anyway.

I'm sure you're not the only Pansexual one on EC. And even if you are, it makes you that much more special.

Default Re: If you could switch your orientation, what would it be?

As many problems as being gay causes, it's really turned out to be a pretty good thing in my life. As a result of being gay, I have a wonderful boyfriend, and I think I am a kinder person than I would be otherwise. I think I was born this way for a reason, so I don't think it would be appropriate for me to change it if I could.

, Corina, it's okay. Although I don't think being straight would solve your problems You may crush on gay guys instead! I know I certainly crush on a helluvalot of lesbians xD It's so unfair

Seriously, being straight is so overrated. It's really boring, and unoriginal.
Trade sexualities?

I'd stay gay. I've worked so hard to get to where I love myself as I am, and I don't want to change it. And guys are just too hot, LOL.
