Okay, on the internet, things can be read different ways. But, I find this very, very offensive. I know you mean no harm, and maybe you don't know why I find it so offensive, so that's why I will explain.
A little bit like
James said, guys are naturally, coming from nature, more feminine. I think it's pretty bad to think that the only difference between a gay man and straight man, is they are attracted to different sexes. In a general sense, maybe you can say that, but there are lots of a little things that happen to gay men that make them different from straight men.
Now, this is only theory, it's true, but I would say our voices get high and lispy to attract men, especially gay men, to us. I know that when I hear a guy's "gay" voice, and see his "gay" walk and other movements, I think it's cute, and I think "He's like me" and I want to go to him. Of course, it's very small, you don't go humping everyone you think is hot. It's just an attraction thing.
But then, yes, there are very deep-voiced, big, hairy guys and I am attracted to aspects of them, too. I know lots of gay guys think it's so hot to imagine a straight gay doing anything sexual with them, probably because it has to do with the thought of being able to "get" them, like "Oh I'm so hot a
straight guy likes me!", and there's probably some danger and violence and exploring a world different from our own somewhere in there. So maybe it's a mix of things.
The whole "girls in barely male bodies" thing was really offensive. In this day and age, we discover we can grow to be however we want. I guess what it is is typically, men are able to be bigger and build more muscle than women. But since biologically boys can be skinny or "willowy" and still have all the things that really make us men, being big and muscley doesn't equal being male. I suppose waxing hair off our chest and other parts is changing how we are, but girls wax their legs and other parts and that's changing how they are.
James wrote:Um, i think it's coz gay guys (or rather, the ones with lisps), they are naturally more feminine. The feminine qualities, or the higher levels of oestrogen probably have an effect on their voice, resulting in the lisp.
In short, as they act like girls, the lisp naturally occurs, as guys arent meant to sound like that. lol.

Really? Why can you say that? Guess what? A gay high-voiced lisping man naturally occurs in the world, and it doesn't hinder their life, so it's not medically incorrect or not how they're "supposed" to be. In fact, as I said above, it probably helps them get get dates and lead to mating. And all men have estrogen in them. Sure, low levels. So gay men have higher levels. OK.
Okay, just because it wouldn't be right not to post this, as men age, they get higher levels of estrogen. The imbalance of estrogen and testosterone causes health problems. So, are gay men less healthy than straight men in their old age? Or is there something with gay men that somehow makes it all work out? I guess some scientist somewhere will have to do a study sometime.
