What Is This Called?

[ryann1996]

I feel like it's strange, but i'm attracted to girls emotionally, and girls only. But I only sometimes think of girls sexually, I mostly think of other guys. When I watch porn, it's gay porn about 90% of the time. But I could never date a guy, it just doesn't appeal to me.

Does anyone else think like this? And would you consider me gay, or bi?

You're bisexual.

You might be bisexual. I have the same problems, and I think I might be Bi so.

I wouldn't say bisexual solely- this sounds more complicated than that. Bisexual has never really fit me as a label for similar reasons.

You see, "sexuality" is such a blanket term. People usually use sexuality labels to describe BOTH romantic feelings AND sexual attraction, and it leaves some people in the dust.

It sounds more like you're heteroromantic and homosexual, or you're heteroromantic bisexual. Clearly there's more than one component.

As much as I hate linking Wiki, when I was questioning my gender, it was the most helpful. Haven't been able to find a nearly comprehensive list of sexualities and genders all in one place.

Which is weird. You'd think Tumblr'd have been on this stat. But oh well.

Will go ahead and say you are bi and like looking at guys but prefer a relationship with a female. No big deal.

I have no idea. I'm both sexually and romantically attracted to guys, but occasionally sexually attracted to girls, and I just call myself gay.

Your still pretty young though. You may not have encountered all the possibilities available to you emotionally and sexually. i wouldn't worry about it right now. The most important thing is to be open to what YOU like and not be forced into anything.

I query why the person above me was banned out of curiosity.
It could simply mean that you are bisexual. You should never consider being bisexual an attraction romantically, but of course most people use it as a blanket term as said before.

You like both sexes but only prefer heteroromantic relationships (of course this wouldn't cover wanting casual sexual relations).

It might just be the taboo of the whole thing.....watching something you know you don't feel interests you and excites you..

Defnitely. The OP is a heteroromantic bisexual.
