Sure, I don't mind talking about it at all. But not now, i was up half the night and have to go dig out a stump in ICY cold weather now lol.

Thank you for that very insightful and moving post, brokebackjack. Maybe the title of this topic should be "One Person People." (Do I hear Barbra warming up in the background?) Anyway, I have felt that jolt too and I doubt if I'll ever feel it again now matter where on this rugged old road I roam, whether just keeping to one road or travelling both, as you've done. It's as natural as can be to want to seek union with the beloved, who can take any kind of manifestation. It appears that your upbringing allowed you to seize the opportunity when and however it presented itself!

I think there are alot of people who have strong emotional bonds to people of both sexes that can or not be sexual. I have an extremely strong bond (need) for someone that I loved a very long time ago that was sexual.
I am married (straight) and LOVE men. I love the way a man's body looks. I love the little V before the penis. I think a man's penis is gorgeous. Love having sex with my husband. But on the other hand, I have an extremely strong erotic attraction to women. I have friends that are lesbians and have always wondered. But to me, I think if I did have sex with a woman it would be for purely sexual reasons. The bond might come later. It is so confusing. I have always been intrigued by bisexuality. Is it having the best of both worlds???

Here's where we first discussed the question, why did Jack and Ennis go off in separate directions when they left Brokeback Mountain?
Artiste:
According to the film, it seems, to me, obvious that Ennis is an one man's man, indeed!!
Is that so in the book?
P.S., I often wondered and still do what is an one man's man!! Al ady neighbour said that often to me about her nephew she lived with, and/or I (maybe too, I think). But I never thought that nephew to be a gay man. But she found out that I was a gay man (I was then about 16 or so), since I saved his life!
Hugs!!
