Gay ?

How do you know if you gay or bi sexual

[aalleexx]

I think isn't easy to say. BTW, It doesn't matter what title you take (gay or bi or str8). All it matters is what you feel. :)

I think this topic needs to be moved to teen sexuality.

Only you can know if you're straight, bi, gay or something else. How do you feel? Who are you attracted to? How old are you, you may not be old enough to work it out yet. I wasn't until I was 16.

Puberty for Boys :arrow2: Teen Sexuality.

This question isn't as easy as that. Explain what's going on. Sexuality is a tough issue to talk about.

I will say that you know what you're attracted to. If you want to discuss it we are here, and don't be afraid.

I have to agree with this, what are your feelings and where are your attractions taking you?

[SethfromMI]

well usually, in your case being a guy, if your gay you are only sexually attracted to guys and if if your bi you are sexually attracted to guys and girls

Bi:
Having sexual attractions to both male and female.

And gay, is being sexually attracted to your own gender.
Some people have more difficulty learning their own sexuality than others. But eventually, we know what we are and are not attracted to.

You don't really just wake up one day and know who you are. It a long - maybe even years - time learning. But remember, its just a label. It doesnt really mean anything. It's what you think and feel that is important, and that might even change over time.

^^^This is good advice. So many people going through puberty panic due to the fact they feel the need to rush to conclusions and find their identity in everything immediately, but everything takes time.

I went through a very similar situation to around 2 years ago, where I finally realised that after many childhood years spent looking up to boys, and feeling somewhat attracted to them (but always denying it and treating it differently from the way I felt about girls), I finally came to terms with the fact that these feelings I were having were just the same sort of attraction I was having to girls.
For me, it was shedding all of the stigma around sexuality, and being true to myself was what allowed me to understand myself better, and be more honest with my sexuality. Most people will sit somewhere on the wide spectrum of sexuality, and puberty is often when people start to think about making decisions about what they will identify with. Some identify with gay because they gravitate more towards their own gender, or some will gravitate towards other genders from themselves, and that is fine. What is important is that you are honest with yourself, and just let yourself find out what you like, and understand your own sexuality before rushing to adopt any labels.
I hope all goes well.
