Well, at least the straight boys here have some good taste in men.

I suppose if someone forced me to do the straight thing (gun to the head and all - it would take that, believe me) I’d have to go for Julianne Moore.

(Oh, and boys, _NO_ man is “100% straight” 😃 )

Hmmm… No, if anything I think riding a motorcycle afterwards would make the pain worse. :eek:

As for me? Well, I wouldn’t want to “go straight” under any circumstances… but I would, shall we say, make an exception for Ncole de Boer.

I’d go gay for Courteney Cox.

Why haven’t I done so? Mostly because I’m male.

In keeping with the spirit of this post, I’d get from Brad Pitt if I would be able to give to his wife at the same time…

I believe that is the most profane thing I have ever posted :eek:

I’d go straight for Olivier Martinez from the movie “Unfaithful” - his lips are just too luscious.

A female friend of mine once described me as “the least gay guy” she’d ever known. She just could not at all picture me being gay.

Still, I’m perfectly capable of acknowledging a male as attractive. George Clooney, as many have mentioned, is a hottie. I also think Michael Jordan is an extrememely attractive man. And some others. Sexually, they do nothing for me, but you know, if I was a woman…

But there’s one guy who truly _almost_ makes me drool. James Marsters as Spike in _Buffy_. Yowza. (It has to be the character though, with the lovely fake English accent. When he does interviews in his normal American voice, he does nothing for me.)

YEE-HA!

Okay, what amuses me here is if I’m so uptight that I can think of this without insisting that I’d have to be “forced” to sleep with someone not of my sexual preference, I’d probably try to avoid any possibility of enjoying it…:dubious:  
That said, it would have to be someone ugly and/or bad in bed. Definitely none of the Beautiful People.  
Either way, this doesn’t really affect me since, like a couple of other post writers, I’m happily bi. Just about all of the people listed in this thread might be enjoyable lays…

I have never experimented with heterosexuality.

Well,

-I’ve french-kissed a woman before (on a dare - a straight guy french-kissed me immediately afterwards)  
-I groped a woman’s boob once (that was fun - boobs have an interesting texture)  
-I got tickled by a transsexual once. (The latter two happened at parties. I used to go to some _fun_ parties. If that was the women, imagine the men…!)

OH! And I forgot all that time I spent at NYDope eating Penis Mints out from between assorted women’s boobs (and all the straight guys who ate them out from between mine). That and completely unnecessary “kilt checks” on **GrandfatherTrout** - NYDope was FUN.
