Simple curiosity has inspired me to write this post.
I know many gay and bi-sexual people, from the curious and unsure to the flamingly, unbridling, over-the-top queers, and they are all good friends. Now, everyone is entitled to their own opinions and lifestyle choices, so I am never one to judge or look down upon any decisions like this.
However, I have had the fortune to never have personally come across any gay people who had an intense dislike for the other sex, they're just not interested in them romantically or sexually. I know that these people exist (some hard-core feminists and lesbians), and I don't understand why they dislike or hate the other sex, but again, to each their own.
My question is this: Have you ever encountered anyone who, at some point in their lives, had such a bad (or multiple) experience(s) with the other sex that they were actually afraid of them? As in, actually being scared or terrified of men (if you're female) or women (if you're male)?
