Strengthening Gay Relationships in a Heterosexual Society

Any idea where you stand in regard to demographics? I mean with your same-sex relationship? In other words do you know the percentage of the US population that identifies itself as Gay or Lesbian? Here is a multiple choice answer. We will examine the correct answer a bit downward in the article - 5.2%?  1.7%? 31.1%? 15%?

No matter which answer you chose, you will agree that the majority of the population in the US is hetero-sexual. Even though there is angst over "marriage penalty" and divorce rate is 45% of all marriages, it is a common fact that far more people in the US do not practice homosexuality than those who do.

This brings to mind a few challenges for gays and lesbians. The key ones, such as equality of rights, recognition of marriage etc. are important. But what about your rights to peacefully avow a gay or lesbian lifestyle in every day life? Whether you call your partner wife or husband, you have a right to live normally, at least according to your personal code of conduct, don't you?

Yet you are surrounded by hetero-sexuals. At work, at play, in clubs etc. How do you cope?

Well, let us first dispense with the quiz. The correct answer to the question, what percentage of US population is openly gay or lesbian?

1.7% in 2012 or about 4 million

This according to Gary Gates, of the Williams Institute in San Francisco, a creditable institution for gay and lesbian causes.

Here are a few tips on how to cope:

Am I Good in Bed? (This May Change Your Mind)

How good am I in bed? Is she enjoying herself as much as I am? Does she look forward to sex as much as I do? Does she secretly fantasize about the time we've spent together AFTER I'm gone? And if not... WHY not? Any of these questions sound familiar? If you are anything like the vast majority of men who read our blog, articles or monthly newsletter about sex, the BIG question you have is whether you are measuring UP in the sack, right?

And with yet another mini sexual revolution taking place right before our eyes... who can blame you? Women are MORE sexually empowered, inspired and involved today than ever before... and if you are NOT doing your part in bed, the chances are, she's already secretly looking for someone else who will.

So what are the major factors that a man is NOT satisfying his woman in the sack?

According to several BIG sexual surveys done in 2012 and 2013, the biggest reasons that women are not happy with sex may actually surprise you.

Intercourse Stimulates Only The Penetrator's Sex Organ

Men, both gay and straight, can enjoy the intensely pleasurable sensations of anal penetration, when combined with appropriate lubrication and a sensitive lover. But usually male orgasm still relies on penile stimulation. Homosexual erotic fiction indicates that anal sex becomes uncomfortable for the receiving male if he loses his erection. Women only start to have erections (of the internal clitoral organ) in late middle age.

The heterosexual focus on intercourse is not just a matter of convention. Men are biologically programmed to prefer intercourse otherwise men could engage in oral sex or masturbation instead and none of us would be here to talk about it. Consequently most men cannot accept that women's responsiveness is so different to how it is portrayed in fictional media.
