Imagine if we start telling our guests: by the way i am straight , in case you were wondering…

Hahahah. Good one! meet the Focker!!!
Yeah, lots of things were a drag on my sex life (when I was young). There was one time during my days of youthful indiscretion when my sex partner brought some friends with him and his friends stole my roomie’s watch which was in the bathroom. So the idea that strangers can be trusted in a home where no one really knows who they are is a little iffy to me.
So the reality is that you can’t always get what you want. You should be able to do whatever you want in your home with whomever you please whenever you want. Just not at the same time as you host strangers in your home. You can host strangers in your bed or in your guest room but not both at the same time unless there is some sort of disclosure to all involved.
Actually I wouldn’t be too thrilled to go home with someone that was an airbnb host. No STDs, no airbnb guests with my sex partners. LOL.

I kind of agree with Magwitch that this thread has “troll” written all over it. But an interesting and needed conversation nevertheless.

Not sure about troll, but certainly interesting! I didn’t even think anyone had more than one sexual partner at a time anymore, except for the affirmed poly-folks that seem to have “testing” protocols. That alone is eye-opening.
I couldn’t find (on a brief first reading) where Magwitch indicates this thread is being trolled but since your post immediately follows mine, I’m hoping your comment isn’t directed toward me (?).
Sorry, I’m a bit sensitive of late after having some unkind and aggressive retorts to my innocent postings.
I was referring to this. The word troll isn’t used.

It might be. Any discussion of real issues, regardless of what started it, is legitimate.
Me too! I got hooked in hook, line and sinker!
The obvious solution is to specify your interests in your listing, you get a booking as well.
Hahahha, okay I’m laughing at this now!!!
I’d just like to point out the OP hasn’t come back since she posted the question!

What exactly is the point of mentioning your sexuality anyway? I don’t need to know that information from my guests and they don’t need to know my preferences as the host. A guest wouldn’t know if whoever you brought home was a long term relationship or a one night stand - unless you had long term guests and a revolving door on your bedroom. If you are not comfortable with what you’re doing while guests are in your apartment, chances are neither are your guests.

That sums up the situation perfectly.
The OP also posted in Airbnb’s Community forums with exactly the same post, and has reviews, so is a legitimate host.
She failed to respond to any comments on that thread too.
