Is Gay Sex Beautiful?

(This is my first poll, well, ever. So please bear with me, if I don’t do it right at first:).)

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I think gay sex is beautiful. It is as close as two men can get together. That’s my view of it, at least.

Anyways, I have been on these boards for some time now. And I have noticed, the vast majority of you are decidedly not homophobic, whatever other political affiliation you may have.

So I have to ask you: Do you think gay sex is beautiful? Or do you perhaps not feel gay sex is beautiful? As I said, this is not for the homophobes. We know you reasons. I actually would be interested in hearing why someone who supports gay rights, would not think it is beautiful. So please explain your answers, if you feel you can.

(As I said, my first poll. So hopefully I won’t mess it up in any way.)

In any event, thank you all who reply (and respond):).

All sex between two equals is(or can be) beautiful…as long as no mirrors are involved.

Sex is pretty gross really. Two naked bodies, slapping together, making all sorts of offensive noises as air gets pushed in and (inevitably) makes it way back out!


BARF

It’s a loving, intimate act between two people giving themselves to one another in mutual pleasure.

But I wouldn’t want to watch it.

I think sex is beautiful, in the experiencing. The actual visual, no, not beautiful.

Straight or gay.

Care to elaborate?

Agreed. Sex, gay or straight, is pretty gross.

Other people having sex is not “beautiful” – but it may be appealing to view (for other reasons) it if it inspires me to desire to be a participant.

All real sex is gross from an in-person third-person perspective.

Any kind of sex can be made to look beautiful by an artist, like in a photograph or a film or a painting or a drawing, etc.

Yes, sex is pretty ugly for 99.9 % of the population.

That about sums it up for me. Pretty much like childbirth.

Sex: the pleasure is momentary, the position ridiculous, and the expense damnable.

enough said !

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, right? I have no quarrel with anyone else who finds it beautiful, but I don’t.

Wrong question. I think you meant to ask whether gay sex is more or less or just as beautiful as straight sex.

It’s an odd question anyway. Outside of art, nobody’s sex is supposed to be beautiful.

This. The feelings lovers have for each other are beautiful, and I’m sure it feels beautiful to the participants in the moment, but the visuals, not so much.

It’s the difference between catching a whiff of exquisite perfume and finding out what it’s really made of.

All beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I am sure that there are many (including, I presume, most gay men) to whom gay sex is beautiful, but I’m not one of them.

I’m all for gay rights but I’m heterosexual myself and don’t find men sexually attractive. As such, watching two men have sex holds little interest for me and certainly no perceived “beauty”. That’s not a judgment call – it just ain’t my thing.

We have a whole set of built-in biological instincts to avoid other people’s biological fluids and orifices.

And then we have another even stronger set of instincts to override the first set when sex is involved.
