      It's a difficult question;  I watch attractive members of both sexes 
in much the same way, but when I daydream about going to _bed_ with someone,
rather than just admiring aesthetics, I have totally different feelings.
This might be because I have very limited gay experience, and might be
because I tend to think in terms of "relationships" and I would find it
difficult to form a long-term relationship with a woman (as I get older
and want children more and more immediately, I tend to concentrate on the
_men_ I am attracted to).  I think that speaking strictly sexually, I am a
type 2;  but since my sexuality is so bound up with concerns of attachments,
I consider my desires for men and for women in a totally different light.
