I’m a straight married man in my 30s. I love my wife deeply, I’m very attracted to her, and we have a healthy, satisfying sex life. In everyday life, I have no attraction to men at all. None romantically, sexually, or physically.

But I’ve noticed something confusing.

If I drink past tipsy, or take Bronkaid Max, or certain pre-workout supplements, it feels like a switch flips in my brain. Suddenly I feel intensely attracted to men. Not casually curious, but strongly drawn to male bodies, kissing, intimacy, and being sexual with them.

Then once I’m sober or the stimulant wears off, that feeling disappears completely.

This has happened enough times that I can’t ignore it anymore.

So I’m genuinely wondering:

- Is this repressed bisexuality that only comes out when my inhibitions change?

- Is it just a chemical effect from lowered inhibitions / increased libido?

- Can someone be straight while still having situational same-sex attraction?

- Has anyone else experienced something like this?

I’m not ashamed of it, just honestly confused and trying to understand myself better.

Would really appreciate thoughtful responses, especially from people who’ve experienced something similar or understand sexuality/psychology.
