Fair point.
Consider this though. If a woman has sex with another woman, is her femininity (in her own mind) threatened in anyway? As a lay person and non-sexual psychologist, it doesn't seem so to me, generally speaking. But is the same true for the average man's feelings about his own masculinity, if he were to engage in either the fantasy or reality of having sex with another man?
Obviously, there are men out there who do not feel their masculinity is compromised in anyway by their homosexuality or bisexuality. But I'd guess that there
are those out there who feel conflicted by their feelings of desire, and their need to preserve what they consider to be the stereotypical image of maleness. And - adding one more thought to the pyramid - perhaps those women who find the idea of two men together a turn-off do so because they also identify their partner's masculinity very closely to his sexual orientation.
Just idle musings.
