Do you think one can deduce anything about someone's sexuality from his or her appearance?

Every day be another wonderful secret, Enigmas never age, have you noticed that? (Does anyone get that joke?)

I am certainly not that experienced with sexuality. But personally I get the feeling the appearance barely says anything about one's sexuality.

The woman from a dating app I met had a bodycount of 19 and got intimate with way more. Now, in hindsight I might see some signs. But her students (she was teacher) asked her stuff like whether she was a virgin. She also was catholic and I expected her to be sort of prude before she sent me unasked nudes of herself. This really stunned me.

There is this chemistry master student I dated. In one of our first dates she told me sexuality isn't that important to her. But I think she uses that to toy with men. Despite the fact she only cheats emotionally on her bf. I get the feeling her bf demands too much sex of her. But maybe this deduction is totally distorted. Maybe she lied to me when she said sexuality is not important to her. To rule out I was a fuck boy. She was friends with benefits with her current bf before they got into a partnership. She is also totally not the personality one would expect to cheat on her boyfriend in such a systematic way. When I understood what she is doing again I was stunned.

I think I am really bad at assessing people. Or maybe only women?

Do you can read people better in this instance? Maybe in the end we are all enigmas if there were not files or tapes which could expose some bad apples.

I say yes.
Yes you can make assumptions on ones sexual identity based on attire, speech and language.
Obviously not accurate and hence the "assume" but yeah.

If it wall like a duck...

Can't say Elton John is a heterosexual male lol.

Anyway this is my answer, my views and opinion.

I think you can tell, at least in some cases. Some people signal through appearance (e.g. a carabiner on a belt usually shows that someone is lesbian) and that sort of stuff is obvious if you know the signs. But then again, with some people you really can't tell because not everyone adheres to the stereotypes. It's a hit and miss, but I'd say in some instances you can tell from appearance alone.

Not sure if you are talking about sexuality in terms of being straight, gay etc. or, whether someone is likely to be promiscuous.

I've probably been around gay men the most and I find their mannerisms the most fascinating. Often their speech is quite paticular or, the way they walk. A friend of mine had a full mince when he walked. I loved how flamboyant he was.

There again, I've known fairly camp straight guys so, it's easy to get it wrong. I think people sometimes think I'm gay because I'm fairly butch for a female.

In terms of being a player though- it's more how someone talks I find that gives it away. Some of the guys I worked with, it was obvious they would get it wherever they could. In terms of appearance- I suppose because they obviously made the effort to look good, it can seem as if they are constantly on the pull. I don't think you can always tell by appearance though.

I'm pretty sure people can tell I've never had sex, and never will, just by a quick glance.

No I don't think so
or sometimes it depends
