being curious in the south

[Lil Ill]

Where I'm from to talk about being curious is like saying you are gay, I don't have a problem with people being gay but the south can be rough. so how do you deal with the topic without being judge before you even know for yourself.

I really feel I'm straight but reading a lot of post here on vt has made me think should I be experimenting, it's not something you talk about with ya boy down here

[kezyy]

I have the same thing, so i just dont tell peoe, I do want to experimebt but I cant..

[randy.boii]

You have to find people you can trust. People who will be there for u or fool around wi u. Haha just be yourself and you'll find the right people

[donkeymkong]

That's basically the same everywhere, so I don't tell anyone I'm curious. I just do the stuff with my friends, and no one is the wiser :)

[Rayquaza]

Pretty much dont say anything if you know your in a dangerous territory

[Belton21]

I have know problem with gay folks either...but ur right most are homophobes

[Donkey]

Not everyone will experiment, nor want to. It shouldn't be with someone you can't trust enough to let them know how you feel, if you start experimenting with strangers there could be all kinds of negative consequences.

It happens everywhere, but the south is tough because of christianity and values and stuff.

Just don't make it obvious and you'll be okay.

Like people said, find someone you can trust and tell them what you think about yourself. If they're your real friends they'll accept you no matter what. I completly understand and agree with you about the south side being more harsh toward homosexuality. Don't worry though everything happens at its time. You'll know what to do when the moment happens. :D

Well that's not totally off base (although the gay part is) because in most cases people saying they're curious after their early teens are actually just kind of bisexual and don't want to admit to it because they'd rather be "straight but curious" instead. Which is a crock. After the first time, it's not really curiosity, if it ever was.

And there's nothing wrong with that. (I'm gay too.)

:arrow: teen sexuality

[jellypickle]

hide from ur enemies and do what u want with ur friends

Well no one can really stop you from being curious. But if you do expirment, be careful with who you do it with.

I tjink that may be true for most places but in areas in the south you are one or the other ya cant be both.

Thanks all for the info I dont think its a topic I can cover with anyone

You have to trust some people and be sure thay the experimentation will be safe with them

[ThisIsGay]

i live in the south. north carolina is more southern than more people think; it's full of republicans. people here on VT make it seem like you should be experimenting but as for me, i think no. i'm 100% straight and that will not change, ever.

[amigo93]

If you even mention being curious in the south you are labeled gay. There's no experimenting down here. So I just keep those thoughts to myself.

I live down in Australia and their are tones of gay, lesbian, bi curious whatever down here and mate i gotta tell you just do what u want, if people think ur gay screw em. if they are so narrow minded that they can't even comprehend being sexually curious then u shouldn't care about what they think

[Rose]

I think its great that you know exactly who u are, but ifpeople want to experiemnt to make sure there is nothing wrong with that in my opinion

[Lil Ill]

I think most folks get what im saying, im not judging gay people, im saying in some parts of the world if you question your own sexuality then you are marked as being gay, sadly for some there is no middle ground.
Thanks to all and I like all of the feedback ive gotten so far
