Let me start by saying I'm categorically not gay and normally feel no same sex attraction, but when I look at pictures of gauchos, I feel an unsettling stirring in my pants.

Just one look at these rugged mustachioed South American horsemen atop their steeds with their hips thrusting forwards and back in a slow canter, their colourful poncho rising and falling in rhythm with their neckerchief fluttering in the breeze.

I only feel this way when I look at pictures of gauchos.
Am I the only straight man who feels this way?
Should I book a ticket to Buenos Aires?

Now this is the kind of gaucho -gaucha? - that stirs my cockles...

It's Cactus Country over there, so be careful where you drop your pants and bend over for these guys.

Meanwhile, enjoy ...

She's not posing to her best advantage as a woman. It's the sort of pose you expect to see in a men's gay magazine.

Only if you read them Herb, I expect.

Real gauchos, like real stockmen everywhere, are probably a lot less flamboyant, whiling trailing a waft of horse piss, cow dung and flies.

Don't lose any sleep over it
You're not out there on your own




We hear a lot about the Big Three Sexualities — straight, bisexual and gay.
Most of us assume that these three orientations encompass the universe of sexual identities.

But there is a new kid on the block: The mostly straight male

To the uninitiated, mostly straight may seem paradoxical.
How can a man be mostly heterosexual?
If you’re a young man, you might assume that either you’re straight or you’re not, meaning you’re likely gay and maybe bisexual.
Yet the evidence suggests that more young men identify or describe themselves as mostly straight than identify as either bisexual or gay combined.

A 2011–2013 U.S. government poll found that among 18- to 24-year-old men, 6% marked their sexual attractions as “mostly opposite sex.” That’s nearly 1 million young men.

Yet when these men were forced to choose between straight, bisexual or gay, about three-quarters marked straight because for them bisexual, even if it is understood as “bisexual-leaning straight,” is too gay to accurately describe their identity.
Given such constraints, these young men were left with no place to truthfully register their sexuality, thus forcing them to be less than honest.

Wal - all I know, Pilgrims, is that when I dream of having it off.... it's always with a woman...... not a man.....

All those years of multiple sexual personalities indoctrination and such have failed on me - I'm a reactionary.   :-?

"Chinitas".

No - you are NOT Gay.
The 'stirring' in your loins is not a sexual attraction for the men, its for the 'life' they live.
Yul Brynner summed it up nicely (and he was a mad wrooter of women, like Monroe) when he "Always led with his ddick." when acting. It was the 'life' of acting that aroused him the most, made him feel more 'manly'.

The Vikings & Spartans (though the Spartans were Bi-sexual) approached battles in much the same way: Sexually. They would intimidate the enemy. The Vikings would stand brushing their long hair in front of the enemy before battle and pass the vibe of being 'sexually aroused' for battle.

As you can see. If you ever became a Gaucho, etc. You would definitely be the 'mans man' amongst them. Not there to get laid with women, but there to represent what is "Best in Men".

But you can be forgiven for your questioning. In this day n' age - via the Media, they can only see 'Gay or Redneck', nothing else.

Who was that singer who sang "Lust for Life"?

Not my fault - I looked up 'gaucha' and it came up positive... chinita will do...

It's a worry that most here didn't vote........ hmmmmm... not questioning their 63 varieties, though.. nev-uh!
