You can absolutely be straight and have gay sex. A hole is a hole. I've known a few straight men who have done it and still don't seek out men or find them attractive. Conversely, I know gay men who have fucked women and don't actively seek out women to this day.

A circumstantial fuck is just that: you getting your rocks off when given the opportunity. We don't need to be questioning people's identities as if we know other people's minds like our own. That's not our place and we don't need to be prescriptivists.

Imo if you fuck a dude in any way, you lose straight as a title forever and you become at minimum heteroflexible.

I’ve never been a mushroom fan, but every 5-10 years, I taste them again to see if my tastes have changed, though they never do. Does that mean I do in fact like mushrooms?

Actually scratch that question - it’s not a decision that anyone but the person in question can make. Correcting someone about their orientation is a major overstep.

(I know you weren’t the person who initially did that, I’m just speaking generally)

Don't let your dreams be dreams. Hop on grindr and you'll have 20+ offers in a few hours.
