I'm 15 years old and male. I 1st started to have sexual feelings in 6th grade, and they were all towards women. Although, for the past 2 years (i'm going into 10th now), i've been sexually attracted to men and women, but men a lot more. Like, i prefer men. Although, i am not interested whatsoever in being emotionally connected to a man. I never wanted to date, hug, or connect emotionally with a guy, i just like their bodies. Although, I like having emotional relationships and sexual relationships with a women. I've had sex with women and i really enjoyed it, but i still like a man's body more. I normally fantasize sexually about men, but rarely i'm in a mood where i prefer women. but i fantasize about kissing, hugging, holding hands, and being with women.
So, am i bi, am i gay and just fooling myself trying to be normal, or could just be a phase and see what comes out of it. I've never talked to anyone about this because i fear that i am just confused and i'll change (gay or straight) and i'll feel stupid for talking about this to them.

Personaly I'd say that your bi from what I've just read. You said that you are still attracted to men and women (albeit in different ways) so this by definition makes you bisexual dosent it?
That's what I think anyway :)

It can be quite hard to say in a situation like this. I'm assuming you're 15 or 16, so there is no reason to rush this decision.
If you have no emotional attraction to guys, then it is possible that you are still going through a curious phase. During puberty, hormones in your body tend to make you curious about the same sex, and there's nothing wrong with that; in fact, most guys go through it at one point or another.
I don't know what your sexuality is, and there is no reason to slap a label on yourself just yet. Give yourself some time. Most likely, if it is a phase, it will probably be ending within the next year/year and a half.
However, I don't see how you could be gay if you don't have any emotional attraction to guys. It is possible you could be bisexual, slightly, but there's no reason to jump to conclusions and labels.
Do what makes you happy. See where you are in the coming months from now, and reassess it then. If you are still having these feelings or they've increased, there is a better chance you could be gay/bisexual. Take your time, there's no reason to hurry.

Don't spend too much time thinking about how to label yourself. At this age, hormones are still going pretty insane. It's normal to be curious and have the kinds of feelings you have..I'd say just give it some time, figure yourself out before you try to put a label on it.

Don't worry man, during puberty hormones can cause a physical attraction to the same sex.

I wrote This thread (clicky) (http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/showthread.php?t=125182) with a lot of information about sexuality. What it is, how you can possibly determine it for yourself, and all about different types of sexualities. I think you could benefit by looking it over. Sexuality isn't something that other people can decide for you - it's something that you need to feel out and come to your own idea of it over time. It can change in time, or it could stay the say. Nothing is ever 100% concrete.

To me it sounds like you're bi but since you don't want EMOTIONAL attraction with a man it could be you going through a phase don't worry :) just go with the flow being bi is fine ya know :)

I agree with most it seems you're bi, but again as has been said depending on your age things can change. If you just like sex with guys then maybe it is more of curiosity and experimentation. However, if there is an emotional attachment, then you may be leaning more to the gay side....but does it matter?...You are who you are and as long as you are comfortable with being with both guys and girls, then be true to yourself....don't let others or yourself for that fact....put a label on you...just be yourself and be confident in yourself
