HOMOSEXUAL – BEHAVIOR

11th March 2009

The degree to which homosexuals are affected by the hostile attitudes of society should not be exaggerated. Even though newspapers and magazines constantly allude to homosexuals as demoralized, deviant, degenerate, or perverted, and are happy to report sensational cases of child molestation or sex murders, which in turn help to maintain an adverse climate of opinion towards homosexuality, the majority of homosexuals live quiet, unobtrusive, ‘normal’ lives, hoping to be invisible in society; or else form into protective groups against a generally hostile world.

Even when living these quiet lives, fear of discovery or fear of oppression lurks constantly, and the internalization of social hostility may make a loving relationship more difficult. These observations are reminders that homosexuals are an oppressed group.

The ignorance of most of society towards homosexuality extends to their sexual behaviour. It is believed by some, for example, that anal intercourse is the only way a homosexual man obtains sexual enjoyment. Many sexual contacts between homosexual men are not anal. Most homosexual men enjoy mutual pleasuring and oral-penile stimulation, each partner in turn sucking the other’s penis so that each reaches orgasm. If anal intercourse takes place, in most relationships the partners alternate in passive and active roles.
