Men's bodies I find much more interesting.

I find their back-halves especially interesting.  (And I am not into anal sex at all actually, so it's not that I have an ulterior motive for preferring his rear.)  In the front, I have the face and chest and belly and groin;  but I prefer a guy's shoulders, back, butt, and legs.  

It's definitely not a "choice" of mine to prefer one gender over another, I don't think.  (Otherwise, why would I like females 5% & males 95%?  It would be 100% one way or the other, right?)

It may have to do, somewhat, with my being an introvert, the tendency to prefer the back of a guy to the front?  Because now he's not staring at me, and it seems "smoother" back there than in the front (with all its chest & stomach muscles) and I can relax.  Plus I love to give back-massages.  Also, even if he "man-scapes" (which I'm not into, I'm into a man being a MAN), he may shave the front, but rarely would he get the back half done, so I'm more likely to find virgin hair.

More to the topic, I just find the female groin strange, and especially find large female ariolas quite off-putting (as in creepy & gaggy...).  Also, everything is shaved and stubbly with a female..., & actually the opposite of how a female was presented to me growing up (as "smooth and hairless" — no, she's not, she's STUBBLY and hairless!)

Hi Alterego22, et al 

(Sorry if I wrote too much.)

I think that not all of us have the same desires or physical attractions to all other male body shapes and sizes. Most of us are unique even if only in miner differences. Sorry, I'm new here today. My above altar picture looks like me back in High school. FYI, I chose to take "gay" as a label, once long ago. It was not quite right but was then the only close enough one to use. When I was a teen, I did not meet any open gay people in my difficult times in the 'military brat' life. I came out 20 years ago - just before Princess Dianna died *tears up*.

I find that very few other gay men are quite the same as me :-(  But, to understand, attraction is only a small part of a person's true whole self. Attraction comes in different parts - physical form attractions, psychological mind status, personal identity, sexual desires, romantic emotions, personal expression, emotional confidences, fetish and many other factors. Not so simple to define, huh? I personally, like both men and women in different strengths, but I chose the gay label instead of bisexual as it was the only better fit available. I hate labels... Like me, some (teens/men/women) are more interested in one part of their sexuality, but we all have many other parts - like romantic emotions - mostly wanting love than sex for some of us. As an example, I dated about 8 to 12 months many times before wanting sex with my previous boyfriends even though they were quite very physically attractive. (I liked to look at their glasses, hair, butt cheeks, legs and even their ears!) Even though some men I liked, were labeled as 'ugly', I found them hot! So, why judge?! There's too many superficial peoples some times.

I find men are often attracted in physical ways effected by amount of desires, sometimes including meeting time, age differences and changes in hormones. These attractions are not written in stone and can evolve as one gets older. There's no rush in life. There's always time to explore and it's good to find yourself.

BTW, just as an example on how things can change. When I was still a teenager, I was not interested in anyone younger or at my age - male of female. Now, I still prefer my lovers to be about the same age as me, or older men and same age women. I find gay, effeminate thin, nerdy, or butch men, attractive, but men are not 'beautiful', in the way that women are - but men are in a different way sexy. Most of the physical factors I love most, are found in men and women but are a bit androgenic (thin or chubby, averagely muscular, smooth). To me, straight people both are nice looking, but I have no physical attraction to those men or women. (Eww. Stinky to me. I need the gaydar signal to go off.) I could shower in the gym with a full room of straight men, and wouldn't be interested in any of them. LOL, I've showered with many times with many men. Meh, doesn't do anything for me...

Hope this helps with anyones questions? Have fun what every you try, just be safe!

I'm  totally into the  the male form, have been since I was 10, 11, probably even earlier,  haven't been able to rationalise why, don't care. It's the male body that does it always for me, girls' bodies, unless they are completely androgynous and non-female looking never do. Why? No idea, perhaps it's just the way I'm hard-wired. Like chilipepper805 I didn't know what gay was until later, but I knew I was different and that difference was very unacceptable to the rest of the world I lived in and still live in.  And like JohnE  Just before I hit puberty I knew I liked boys  and was super turned on by some of my classmates, but too terrified to show it and not ready to admit to myself that I might be gay, for about that age, 13/14 "gay" became a potent insult in my teen world, along with fag, poofter, turd burglar, Nancy-boy, freckle-stretcher, dung puncher and the whole range of inventive, appalling invective that straight Australian teens and adult males are so fond of. Sometimes I wish I could like girls' bodies.

a man's body has more detail and intrigue. from shoulders to chest to genitals to butt to body hair to legs to bellies to nipples to armpits to faces. and that's just on the outside!

I remember the first time I saw a girl's genitals other than my sister at about age 6 and being deeply unimpressed. Compared to the boy next door who I already played boners with, it was such a let-down. The complexity of balls and cock combined, the fact that it got hard and felt good when we rubbed them was just awesome! I felt sorry for girls that they didn't have the same equipment and in later life as an adult in several hetro relationships, I learned that they all wish that they could have a dick too. What does that tell you boys? Hmm... Just before puberty I knew I liked boys way more and was super turned on by some of my classmates, but too terrified to show it and not ready to admit to myself that I might be gay(ish). haha.

Everyone is attracted to different things, of course. But the general rule throughout all living creatures is that males are more beautiful than females. They have to spread their genes, so nature made sure they're attractive for the females. Male birds for example have gorgeous decorative feathers that don't serve any purpose other than making them look good. As for apes... just look at a Mandrill's colourful face. A lion's mane doesn't serve any purpose either, but the girls seem to like it ;) . Although the list is endless, there are many exceptions where males and females look very similar (just take a look at most cats & dogs). Humans however fall under the first category. Lets just take a healthy, sporty and fit human couple. The female won't look significantly different than a not-so-fit female (other than having less fat tissue). The male human however will look very different. He's taller, has wider shoulders, a narrower waist, clearly visible muscle bulges/fibres and prominent veins. He also has a lot less body fat. Decorative facial and body hair complete the picture. So yes, as with many living creatures on earth, the human male is more beautiful than the female. I'm not surprised that I'm gay... what really puzzles me is that only 10% of the human males are gay too *snicker*

I think that's genetically hard-coded into each one of us. I probably knew around the time I was 8 or 9 that I was different, how I didn't understand the fuss other guys made about girls, but how looking at some boys made me tingle in a certain way. Tingles that a couple of years later became boners, or for some boys, a yearning or crush. 

Referring only to the matter of male buttocks replacing female breasts as a point of arousal, it seems that male nipples also play a part in arousal, at least in many of the videos posted on GBT and similar sites, where participants regularly suck the other's nipples. Orientals in particular clearly derive intense excitement by rubbing/tweaking their own, sometimes to the pitch of achieving the so-called hands free orgasm. I personally knew of two early teenage boys (into each other, not me!) who both had the swollen nipples that often occur briefly at their age. They took delight in sucking and tweaking each other's.

I was always drawn to the male body from age eight or so and could never understand what my male friends saw in the female form.  To me the male was so much more beautiful than the female.  I think that the male buttocks replace the breasts as a point of arousal, but it was/is as natural to me to admire the male form as it is to my heterosexual friends to admire the female one.
