Sexuality and personality

Does sexuality influences personality or it goes vice Versa
Top | New | Old
Now this is just my personal opinion.... but i had issues with my sexuality.... and so i did a LOT of reading, asking and researching.

Sexuality is deep ...like your Id.

It can be so deep that some people dont find their true sexuality till much later in life.
Some potentially....never at all.

It can be influenced in its growth by very early experiences and trauma.

Sometimes peoples sexuality can be very different from their daily personality. Sometimes even a polar opposite: like a psychological balancing.


I think sexuality can affect personality....if you let it.

Some people are very ego attached to sex ....but that isnt really fully an expression of sexuality.

Sexuality is deeper than sex

I think the biggest way sexuality can affect someones personality is when they are at peace with it, and get to share it.

Its very .....centering , balancing, almost spiritually fullfilling so to speak.

Its like - if you have that . That freedom of being one with your true sexuality - it makes you....
....more resilient?
Less fragile?
More peaceful


But then....this is just my opinion🤷‍♀

@OogieBoogie More peaceful...

Like it all ties in. Peaceful. Stillness. To me those are definitely cohesive to true intimacy. 😯
@Punxi yeah🤗....thats a nice way to put it:
.Like it all ties in

I got a new found a sense of peace. A quieting.
It placed things that had no place.
It stopped the rattling deep within me.

Everything had a foundation 🤗

I would think orientation is deeper...not chosen.
Personality however doesn’t determine who you want, but it can strongly influence how you desire, connect, flirt, explore, and build intimacy. 🤷🏻‍♀
@Punxi ooh ....good answer.
Sexuality itself doesn’t determine someone’s personality, but the experiences that come with understanding and expressing their sexuality can influence how they grow. It can shape confidence, relationships, resilience, or empathy depending on what someone has lived through. But your sexual orientation isn’t what makes you outgoing, shy, creative, stubborn, etc. — that’s shaped by a lot of other factors like temperament and environment.

My perspective only here
I would think it’s all interwoven on some levels and in certain ways…
With some separation boundaries set as well as maybe some overlap…
Difficult to explain what I’m trying to convey.
Great question though

Vice versa. I know quite a few people who I've become attracted to through speaking to them but I wouldn't have noticed them on a night out

Hmm I don't know, I think your personality affects sexuality. Maybe it goes both ways, they are intregal.
Probably connected. I think we are conditioned to behave a certain way based on our feelings and our beliefs.

I have no idea, but I love both topics and I could not tell you which one influences the other.

I feel like my sexuality is definitely more influenced by my personality overall.

Yes!

Someone who is highly sexually natured views everything differently then those who are not.

I sometimes give the wrong impression

Think personality influences sexuality ,if you are confident , compassionate, makes a better combo for good sexuality
CountScrofula · 41-45, M
Culture, sexuality, personality, and biology all influence one another in a big tangled web where it's hard to tell where something starts and ends.
I think the two are symbiotic with another.
