Jason1988 Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 This is a poll for visitors and expats. Are you top, bottom, versatile or neither? Quote
Bob Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Why do you want to know? I don't mean that question disrespectfully as I am a bit curious as to reasons for the question. Quote
Guest fountainhall Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 I am interested in the poll's findings - in particular the number who might vote "neither". There's a tendency to assume that gay guys are either top or bottom. Interestingly (at least I think so), I have met Thai and Chinese guys who would vote in that category (if they could vote). Quote
Gaybutton Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 There's a tendency to assume that gay guys are either top or bottom. And that's a tendency that also seems to be universally applied. Some people are oral only. Some are into masturbation only. If the gay vernacular includes words for those preferences, I'm not aware of it. All I ever see is "top" or "bottom." Other preferences appear to be disregarded. Even when creating a profile on Gay Romeo, the only choices they provide for listing your personal preferences are "Top," "Bottom," or "Versatile." And "Versatile" is taken to mean those who are both "Top" and "Bottom," but doesn't seem to have much to do with anything else. Quote
kokopelli Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 This is a poll for visitors and expats. Are you top, bottom, versatile or neither? I suggest you define "top" and "bottom". Many are confused as to just what these terms mean. I had one ex-friend who believed he was a top since he was on top of the guy he was sucking off. Quote
Guest Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 I think top & bottom are fairly well understood. However, oral is less clear. What terms should be used? Quote
kokopelli Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 I think top & bottom are fairly well understood. However, oral is less clear. What terms should be used? That was the point I was trying to make regarding definitions. To me, anyone who has a cock shoved up his ass or down his throat is a bottom! The person doing the shoving is the top. Of course, one can be versatile and enjoy both aspects. Quote
TMax Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Well I'm an oral junkie and versatile at it, do some anal but not often and I would say versatile as well. Quote
Guest xiandarkthorne Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Same here. I'm an oral junkie and versatile, too, though I am invariably the insertor when it comes to the other end. So, I guess, for that reason, I am a top. Quote
Guest fountainhall Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 I am a top. I knew this thread reminded me of something- You're the top! You're the Coliseum. You're the top! You're the Louvre Museum. You're a melody from a symphony by Strauss You're a Bendel bonnet, A Shakespeare's sonnet, You're Mickey Mouse. You're the Nile, You're the Tower of Pisa, You're the smile on the Mona Lisa I'm a worthless check, a total wreck, a flop, But if, baby, I'm the bottom you're the top! With many thanks to xiandarkthorne (and not forgetting Cole Porter)! Maybe someone could rewrite these lyrics and make it a new gay anthem Quote
