Do you ever feel like you want to experiment?.. because ever since I was young, I've only ever dated 2 people.. And had sex with one. I'm 19, and I kind of want to experiment without being a whore, lol.

@Acidpointzero I personally don't feel like experimenting but it's a normal urge to have. Just go about it with some common sense and don't rush into anything if you're not comfortable.

Like I said on your similar vid before, I don't understand how people can enjoy open relationships. But I suppose that depends at what level you call it a relationship. Is friends with benefits an open relationship? I'm only interested in monogamous relationships because it gives you and the person you love that one thing with each other that no-one else can have with you or your partner. It makes your relationship with him/her more special than their relationship with anyone else!

@Fr4yTheStrings Some people have the ability to separate sex and emotion. I don't have that ability. It boggles my mind how someone can be emotionally detached from something so intimate.

@SjoerdErik Gay men can't have one partner. They're men!

[SjoerdErik]

@benisturning30 lots of us do and you're wrong on "gay "monogamy being different than "straight" monogamy. Monogamy simply means you have but one partner, whether the relationship is gay or straight doesn't make a difference. The mutual respect and commitment to each other is what matters, as in any other worthwhile relationship that is.

[SjoerdErik]

@HrMerrlol I suppose you think of yourself as funny. Let me suggest to you that such may very well be an over-estimation of the facts at hand. Furthermore, your understanding of geophysics is outdated by a few centuries and as for your absolute statement that gays do find sunlight uncomfortable. I don't and nor does my boyfriend.

Just caught this and will be watching all the rest you have done so far. I'm a straight women and feel that not matter what sexuality you are if you believe in monogamy then that is what you will strive for in your life. I believe if I had been born gay(lesbian)bi myself, I would still only want to be with one person at a time. It's the way I'm built within myself. I have to have some emotional attachment to that person wherever it's love or lust and I'm too possessive to share with anyone else.

@Acidpointzero Just keep in mind that following your heart =/= following your urges. Everyone experiences temptations. Even the monogamous type.

@vidform A LOT of womans in the world love to have a lot of mans. what you say applies for both. You have a lot of prejudices...

[cactusmilo918]

Gay men like to talk about monogamy, but let's see them try it for 30 years. Not many couples make it that long. I think men in general (gay or straight) don't care about monogamy as much as women. I just don't think gay men try as hard as straight guys. They give up, give in or break up too soon thinking that the next guy will be better but often end up in the same cycle. Two years is not long enough... try 22 years, then make another Youtube video so we can follow your progress.
