Ooops! Forgot to answer that one. I like Kirk now that I'm older - I watch him swagger with a smile, watch him bluff his way around I used to be a great Spock fan as a child, but now I've grown fond of the whole team. I think some of the people who aggressively assert Kirk's heterosexuality do so for fear of TEH GAY, or because they want to insult him and they want to portray him as a slut. Hey, look at that silly show with cheesy sets, corny plots and shagger Shatner! It's not, like, serious, right?
As for Kirk & his manbits... I guess I hope that in a few centures we won't be as prejudiced, and that consenting adults will be at liberty to do what they damn please ;-) And I really don't think he got vey far with most of the women on the show. Ogle, yes, flirt, yes (and sometimes not without hoping to get something not sex-related out of it), but that's it for most.
When I was younger, I was foremost a Spock lover (besides being a big general trekkie), but Kirk and McCoy grew on me over the last four years, which led to my threesome preference *G*
As for the rest - I'm not going to enter a discussion which I very obviously avoided *g*
