exposed too early?

[maxii]

do you think people can turn gay if they get caught up in a gay act too early in life?

ever since I was like 7. I would always think of girls. Like boobs, ass, tits, pussy. you know. the usual things kids think of. I liked girls. I really did. I would always imagine my self with a girl. but then one night at the age of 10 or 11 I was with my friend. and some thing gay happend and ever since then. I had gay thoughts, attractions, and feelings towards boys. like if I turned gay on the spot. I never thought of girls anymore. I really regret that night. maybe if it didnt happen. I would be straight.

so. do you think gay expirimenting at an early age can affect your sexuality out come?

Well, you don't "turn" gay. You can't really choose to be.
It may have influenced your realizing of your sexuality, whatever that may be though.
Only you can say what that is.

No one turns gay. Your experience just happened to be right at the onset of puberty (ever thought why you did the act in the first place?). Being sexually attracted to guys during puberty is pretty much normal, and definitely cannot be considered gay.

I've always kind of believed it influenced me to be attracted to guys in a way.
I saw a naked guy on the internet at 5 and had "relations" at 7, so I think it shaped me in a way.

I think it develops your curiosity..

This really sums up my thoughts, and I don't really like posting these kinds of posts, but I agree. Good advice, listen to this guy :P

thanks mike for moving it. i can see it now! :P

Actually, I believe that it really doesn't. No one is turned gay, nor are they turned bi, or straight, or pansexual, or whatever! You were born that way. However, maybe being exposed to those things younger helped you figure yourself out faster, ya dig?

I don't think it changes or influences your sexuality. you are who you are. I do think that an early exposure to sexuality like that will just make you aware of your desires earlier than maybe some others

I think, and I am saying this very doubtful, experiences will affect almost everything in your life. If you had a troubled childhood (Abusive close family members and whatnot) your life will be different as if you have had a very loved fulfilled childhood. So yes, early sexual experiences could affect your sexuality, but again I'm no psych major or doc so I do not have the base to make such claim.

When I was very young, probably 5 or 6, I was exposed to gay porn. Had no idea woman parts even existed! Today, I am very, very, very attracted to woman. However, I do believe that early experience has shaped the fact that gay porn can turn me on. However, I have no real attraction to men. It IS true that early gay experiences can influence sexuality. You can't choose, but you can influence. Despite what people think. You can influence anything at all, sexuality is no different.

Well, I had a few experiences early in puberty, but even back when I was like 7 I had experiences with guys. Granted, I did many of those things before I got my first gf, but I still look back at those as things I liked more.

Maybe you can turn gay who knows?

I would also say that it absolutely does influence your future sexuality, thoughts and feelings. I also wonder what my sexuality would be if me and a friend didn't "experiment" at a sleepover when I was 9. Who knows but I definitely think it makes a difference.

Homosexuality is dependant on nature (DNA), not the nurturing (Enviroment).

I still wish I knew how I would of turned out if it didnt happen. what if I would have been str8. it would of made my life much easier. but who knows?

I like girls and I wasn't exposed to anything when I was younger, I thnk that it could possibly have a small impact but not really.
