The Kinsey Scale also is known as the Heterosexual-Homosexual Rating Scale. The scale goes from Zero to Six, where zero is the completely heterosexual and six is completely homosexual.
According to Alfred Kinsey, also known as the father of the sexual revolution, it is not possible to divide the world into a heterosexual and homosexual population.
Below is a pictorial representation of the ranges of the Kinsey and their explanation.
Signs that Your Husband or Boyfriend is a homosexual
- He doesn’t look or check out other women: You maybe be in a committed relationship, but it the human tendency of heterosexual men to notice all women if your partner is not checking out other women, it may be a sign that he is a homosexual.
- He checks out other men: If an attractive man walks into the room does your significant stop to look at him? He may be interested in men more than he is interested in women.
- He is physical with other men: If he is touchy feely with other men. He enjoys the company of other men more then the company of women, this may be an indication of him being gay
- He is homophobic: He displays a great dislike for gay people. This is a sign of his him being unsure of his own sexuality. A straight man most likely has nothing against gay men.
- He is obsessed with other peoples sexuality: He is constantly assuming, talking about or commenting that other people may be gay.
- Lack of interest in sex with you: He has very limited interest in sex with you. The reason for this is that he may be asexual, or he may be a homosexual.
- His online behavior is suspicious: He is viewing gay porn or has gay friends and contacts on social media. Or he is listed on a gay dating website.
Your next Steps
There is a probability that since he is in a relationship with you, he isn’t gay but he is bisexual. Not every man who likes other men is gay, there is a silent majority of men who are bisexual.
So should you be worried if your man is bisexual? Most likely not, as long as he isn’t cheating on you. The fact that he is attracted to both men and women is no different than him being attracted to women other than you.
If your partner’s sexual preferences are confusing you, it makes sense to talk to an experienced Psychologist, who will be able to help you deal with your concerns.
