I am just asking because my alter Alex is straight and I am gay, and when I come back to being Ben (ME) after Alex has taken the wheel, I am attracted to women for a couple days, even up to a week.

I get that lingering action also. Like after I've assumed control that body movements and such still linger on....same goes to others when I leave. It's especially noticeable and annoying when you go from fem to male and visa versa. We have to shake it off and exert some effort in overriding the lingering effects.

Sometimes I wonder if it's more on the lines of co-hosting or co-present where the fringes of each other are overlapping.

And to answer the original question, yes on the sexual attractions part. We have them all!

That makes sense because I am only co-conscious with Katie and Alex, and Alex is sure not gay lol. My alters have come up so much lately that the police have come to check on me every night because Alex goes out and tries to seduce women, and the police are very suspicious of Alex. He hates the police. But Katie loves the police and God and George Bush lol. So usually when the police come to my house Katie comes out and talks to them. And the police will be like, "Do you remember what you promised us yesterday?" And I'm like nope.

Oh no, that has to be so difficult! We are closet people...always have been like a turtle. Any personal originality is like buried deep within us to avoid detection. Any bit of self esteem has been beat, yelled, and screamed out of us until just recent, but also then do we feel the shackles of instilled self-restraint.

I've seen your other post on the bipolar section....congrats on quitting and getting the help you need! I'm so happy for you.

Yea, bad Ben is the one who does the prostitution or did, but I've never met him before. I just kind of named him myself. But he's probably angry right now. But I've been having Katie take over and she's very moral. So that's good.
