That's why men who would never have gay sex under normal conditions, will have it under the effects of drugs, alcohol, or when sexually-deprivated. Because those things heighten libido.<br />I guess that Lippa's study failed to see the correlation between high libido and bisexual tendencies in men, because the study was highly subjective. He asked the participants about their "attraction" to people of the same-sex. But "attraction" is too vague, and men tend to be much more self-delusional than women about these subjects. <br />Even men who have actual sex with other men will often deny any real attraction to them.<br /><br />If Lippa had asked about actual same-sex experiences, I'm sure that he would have found a strong correlation between high libido and bisexual tendencies in men (probably stronger than among women). <br />This is simply because you can't deny a "fact", as a sexual encounter, without realizing that it's a blatant lie, but you can easily make up excuses for something as subjective as "attraction".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8375344096409031979.post-28600939542321396012011-11-16T23:18:58.272-05:002011-11-16T23:18:58.272-05:00Agreed - my sex drive is very high and although I ...Agreed - my sex drive is very high and although I consider myself to be heterosexual - at a times of heightened arousal, I could easily go both ways.

However, the higher men’s sex drive, the more they desire either one sex or the other, depending on their sexual orientation. These are some of the findings presented in a new study by California State University psychology professor, Richard A. Lippa, published in the April 2007 issue of the Archives of Sexual Behavior." That seems to be a flat-out contradiction to your experience. Is it possible that the high sex drive was a symptom or coping strategy rather than the root cause?Jest de Faxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14350652395831583890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8375344096409031979.post-48147113854671305602009-03-25T19:17:00.000-04:002009-03-25T19:17:00.000-04:00Jest de Fax, Yes I know of the Lippa Study and wha...Jest de Fax, <BR/><BR/>Yes I know of the Lippa Study and what he found in his research was true for those men. The study did not address what men do when women are *not* available. In my clinical practice as well as other clinicians I have talked to around the country we find that men turn to both men and women when there is a high sex drive. The sample we see might be smaller than what Lippa found however it doesn't mean it isn't true. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for adding to the discussion.Dr. Joe Korthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08656437986661601760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8375344096409031979.post-9361698595619256202009-03-25T12:36:00.000-04:002009-03-25T12:36:00.000-04:00The introduction asserts that a high sex drive mak...The introduction asserts that a high sex drive makes men more likely to have sex with other men.
