Did Our Parents Have Bisexual Tendencies?

I think it's in the gene. Talking to people i know over the years its seems like they always had a hidden part of them . Then it comes out. I know a guy who is married but very woman like in his ways.. His wife very manly. Makes me wonder how thing went in the bed room.
 
Life was hard when my parents first got married. The great depression, WWIi and none of the modern comforts we have today. That is why I hope they did have all the sexual fun possible. I can imagine out on the farm and sucking cock in the barn.
 
I wonder if our parents had the same bisexual drive that we have? Why wouldnt they? Was it different 60 years ago? I was the youngest of 4 children and was the last to live a home with both parents. I know they were very sexual. I walked in on mom giving dad a blow job.
I know my dad was bi i've seen him with another man and he knew i was also.
 
When I was a kid I arrived home from a half day at school to find my mom in her bathrobe. A little unusual considering it was noon but hearing someone taking a shower was very unusual. My mom said the neighbor's bathroom was being renovated and that's why the neighbor lady was over. Perfectly reasonable but why was my mom wearing a bathrobe? Always made me wonder
 
My dad was a closet cd. I had found his bag of goodies. He had everything panties bras stockings dresses wigs make-up some swingers mags. I used to steal his pron mags. Thats what got me into reading stories. Got me curious in trans and cd as well. Then i started following his history on the computer. Then i surpassed him with my browsing and interest.

I shouldnt be surprised but it's interesting to me how many of us found our patents porn stashes. The 1st girly magazine I ever saw was my dads playboy laying out int the open in my parents bathroom. That peaked my interest so I dug deeper and found cross dressing magazines in the bottom of his closet. I have to think my mom knew about it.

I don't think so.

While people are people, and sex is sex, and certainly gay sex has been around since the start of mankind, in the past it was more repressed. WAYYYYYYYY more repressed. Couple that with less ability to communicate, less streaming media images, and stricter laws and it is highly unlikely that even if our grandfather had feelings of having sex with another male, he would never talk about them with someone else. How could he, there was no way he would know the other guy was thinking of the same thing.

With the internet we can, and it has completely changed things.

Sex never has changed granted. They masturbated, used vibrators, got pregnant out of wedlock, and gave blowjobs frequently, it was just in that era they never talked about. But I think gay sex would have been really repressed and been a total self-denial to their dying days because each would have thought their feeling were so perverse.

My case in point? 15% of men completely shave their body? Did you know that out of 100 people you meet on a given day, under their clothing 15% are fully shaven of hair? Or that for every two men you meet, one has cross-dressed? Yep, the figures are 47% of men have tried it. My point here is, without the internet no one would know what people do behind closed doors or hide under their clothes.

When it comes to gay sex, unlike other sex, it would have been really repressed even if they had thoughts of it.

I disagree. I think people like me (introverted, shy, awkward about everything) kept their feelings hidden. But I'll bet many others lived under a facade of "normal heterosexual married bliss" but created/found many opportunities to engage in gay and bisexual fun. Yes, the risks of being discovered might have been greater - especially if the church got wind of it - but there were no cameras and lots of open woods/fields/meadows to meet in. I'll bet that there were many married couples in which he went on long fishing or hunting trips with the guys & she spent time with her girl friends. They knew when they got married that this was the arrangement. If you have a strong sex drive, you're gonna fuck. But you're not gonna fuck your wife if you're only attracted to her brother.
 
... Also ... if people weren't having lots of gay sex, the church and local government wouldn't have had so many laws concerning it.

We read here about the guys that can spot a cocksucker a mile away. These lucky guys were just as common back then and the consenting adults did whatever they wanted behind closed doors.

I agree! I first had male / male sex in the 60's and many since. Only those who I was involved with ever knew.

I understand that there will be always be exceptions, and as I pointed out, gay men have been around since caveman days. However, YOUR singular experience of seeing your father with another man is NOT what caused a trend that changes societal norms. It took the internet to show a lot of people had these feelings and not just a few exceptions.

Without question gay sex was a part of society since the caveman days, but that was not the question. The question was did our parents have the same game sex drive that we now have, specifically 60 years ago. I think the answer is abundantly clear… no, because they were not allowed to.

Hell sixty years ago you could not go fight the Viet Cong if you were gay, or be in a male-male relationship without public ridicule, could not marry one another etc… by laws and social norms the gay relationship was repressed. And if society wanted it repressed, it worked. People would have interest in male-male relations then just put those thoughts out of their head because “it was wrong”.

Jump ahead sixty years and a lot has changed, mostly the internet. How many people came to Literotica because of reading hetrosexual sex stories and then just to see what people were saying on this sub-forum, jumped onto it and suddenly read some posts and though, “damn, I have had those thoughts too before”. Suddenly people realize that WAYYYYYYY more people think the same way they have been the way they have been. Suddenly is not so weird, but actually normal. And even today you see people posting for the first time on here this very thought.

I don’t think gay thoughts is anything new. I think MOST people think of them at some point in their lives it is just how quickly they are dispelled or acted on depends on societal rules. In Rome 2000 years ago, male-male sex was extremely common because it was encouraged, not just tolerated, and there are era’s in history, and certain societies that encouraged it as well. Others not so much, but that was not the original question.

I think in 1965 the gay sex drive was repressed because of societal norms at the time where it was hammered home, “gay sex is wrong”. Because of that, gay sex drive was just not as prevalent as it is today.

just because they were not out does not mean they were not bi so i guess some of our parents could have been bi and more than you think.
 
They say even kinks have a hereditary component. But repression of such things was definitely stronger then.
 
ANTED TO DO MOM one time i was coming out of the bathroom and mom was topless and wanted me to check her boobs for lumps which i did then i started try and play with them more but she brushed my hand away
would ahve loved to go further and still have that fantasy
she had real nice big nipples and at least a d cup
I would sometimes claim I had a lump or rash etc to get Mom to touch and examine me.

The more I consider your sage words I am inclined to agree with you more and more, and think I was wrong.

I was just reading a non-fiction book about French Prisons and it mentions off-hand how French Henry the Third ((1551-1589) often cross-dressed. This was a book published in mid 1800's. A check of Wikipedia mentions him being potentially homosexual, but did not mention cross-dressing. This leads me to wonder if there is not some credibility to it.

Still, as you say, a few well suspected cases like French Henry the Third and Edgar Hoover just means they were caught or more prolific about it, and does not mean others were no secretly gay or bisexual.
