Does watching gay porn make you gay?

[crepesuzette]

I have been watching gay porn since my freshman year of high school and I just wanted to ask you if doing this makes one gay. I mean,it has increased my desire for other men, but i wish I can undo it. I want to though, because lately I've been starting to notice more girls and I just want to be attracted to girls. Or am I bi? I'm so confused. I'm ready to hit 18 and I don't even know what my sexuality is. How long does it take to figure out what your true identity is?

[Abyssal Echo]

you're fine dude watching gay porn doesn't mean you are gay or bi. it wont make you gay either.

[teen.jpg]

No. Not unless your emotionally attracted to guys as well.

Totally agree here.
LOTS of guys watch gay porn just becahse its WAY hotter. Modela r better looking, and its more realistic.than str8 porn. (except maybe some of the homemade stuff).
I believe all humans can, and at some point are, attracted to the same sex. (but most guys wont admit it, funny cuz most girls will)
Puberty is a bitch cuz hormones r crazy wild.
Just enjoy ure sexuality, regardless of who its with!
Just be careful and pick the right partners.

Do you think it might have to do with the fact that I was exposed to a sex scene at the age of 5 or no because ever since then I've been sexual on and off.

I'm sorry you're annoyed. It's just that after masturbating and porning, my head kind of hurts and my junk a little...i don't know how to describe it, but it's certainly not a good feeling. If there weren't any side effects, I would not want to quit anytime soon.

One's porn selection or sexual fantasies don't necessarily indicate one's sexual orientation. In your situation -- it's unclear if the porn makes you desire guys or if your past is doing it.

I'm not sure if you're stating that you saw porn at the age of 5 or were a victim of abuse at the age of 5. Have you discussed this with a therapist? It seems like whatever happened to you then has affected you and because of that you're having a hard time identifying your sexual orientation. You also state you feel guilty for being attracted to guys and are trying to be attracted to girls. I honestly think it may take a long time for you to determine your sexuality. Does your school have a GSA? Maybe you can call a teen hotline to find someone that you can discuss your present and past issues with. I'm afraid if you can't reach out for help -- you could have some major hurdles and struggles to deal with.

Not necisarily no

As soon as i watched a bit of sex on television--i would not consider it porn--but it was a show. It just came on and from that day on i would occasionally get naked in my room. i even tried sleeping naked too but that did not put me to sleep. Thanks abby.

I think so too. I've been hinting at watching porn to my teachers and they kind of got the message.

does watching straight porn make you straight? does watching midget porn make you short? does watching porn with different races make you turn into that race?

Nope it doesn't.

[RoseyCadaver]

You're probably bisexual(gathering what you said, and relating that to my experiences), but your hormones will entail your future later, I'm sure :P.

And as other people said, no watching gay porn doesn't make you gay. However, if you have an attraction to what you are watching, or you're enjoying(which you seem to be) it then you might have some gay tendencies, or as I said above, be bi.

[paulw]

does watching straight porn make you straight?

This. LOL

I think the best thing you could do is worry about it less. :)

People often seem to worry about if this made this happen or that makes that happen. Human beings often assume that A caused B even if it didnt and it's just coincidence. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fooled_By_Randomness

I saw sexual things when i was little, i don't think it changed me. I know people who didn't, and they still ran around the house naked as a kid.

And nothing will make you gay, just like nothing will make you straight. Your hormones might not level off for a few years, or it might FEEL like they never do if youre constantly worrying about it. But why do you need a name for who you are? Just be you, and enjoy being you, and dont worry. :)

[Wisconsin]

Dude, I hate straight porn. I love gay porn. I've been watching it since....6th grade? Or 7th. Can't remember. Lol anyway, I'm going into the 11th grade, and I'm still sexually attracted to my girlfriend. Sure, it makes me want to have sex with a man to experience what it would be like, but I also still want to have sex with my girlfriend. Just keep on with your porn and eventually you'll figure out if you're gay, bi, or straight. Not that it really matters right? You could be pansexual for all that it matters :)

[zeebo]

It might mean you're gay, but that would be up to you to decide.

might not make him decide to be gay, but it doesn't help

[paulw]

might not make him decide to be gay, but it doesn't help

If you mean "doesn't help" like "doesn't make any difference in any way", i totally agree.

If you mean it like "makes things worse", i respectfuly disagree. People don't change sexuality because of what porn they watch. If they did, straight porn would pose a real risk of making gay people straight instead of just unimpressed.... ;)

I know some men in their 60's that still aren't sure. There are no fast and hard rules about sexuality!

[photojared]

no but you could be

[PinkFloyd]

It doesn't make you gay. It's just curiousity.

[Cece14]

no, not at all

[crepesuzette]

might not make him decide to be gay, but it doesn't help

what do you mean decide to be gay?

[SevenHells]

Yeah I agree with all the above comments, straight porn seems so fake and cliched and is a major turn off. I was worried too like you but I guess it's just a natural thing to be turned on, it's hotter and seems much more plausible

[crepesuzette]

I would like the mod to close this thread, thanks.

[Imaustinigeuss]

No it doesn't make u gay/bi I've joked with one if my freinds and made him watch it but then he got all sad cuz he's cerous so then he was like I'm bi all night an I don't think he is he has just had a little man crushes on guys including me but that's doesn't exactly make him gay I don't think he could be but :(. Ohhh well

[salty]

If you get sexually excited watching two men have sex, you are at least bi

[Trenton_]

what do you mean decide to be gay?

if he is gonna be gay or not

OP said make you gay or not.
doesn't help means, if you don't wanna be gay, then don't watch gay porn and it won't make you gay.

[williamgarlok]

It is not necessary that every person who are watching gay porn movies are gay not at all. I don't agree with this point, it depends on your physical attraction and feeling. People watch gay porn just for entertainment and enjoy the sex moments only.

[Sean1213]

Nahh, i do the same shit every once and a while.. Like the dude said up there it is like hotter or some shit. Orgasms better.

[Lost in the Echo]

OP's request. :locked:
