Sexuality?

[PlinyTheElder]

I have a question for y'all, and it might be in the wrong section so sorry in advance mods.

Recently, I've been thinking about having sexual relations with guys (I'm straight [curious] btw), like I'm quite keen to try this stuff out. But I dont at all want a romantic relationship with a guy, just sex. Is this just a phase kind of thing, or me being selfish or something? Where do you draw the line? Would you call it bisexual and hetero-romantic or something like that? Is sexuality different from romantic attraction?

I thinks it's a relatively normal feeling, your still young, puberty is guns throw ur feelings and thoughts around like a rag doll bro....
So I wouldn't worry about your feeling being this or that ok?
Roll with it enjoy it. Be careful and be yourself

Sexuality and attraction kinda do together, we as humans look as tomeone, and feel attraction to them based oh looks and what we liked or dislike
The sexual side is part of that to
You. Ight be ga? Or bi?? Just guna take time for you to figure out ok bro?
Feel free to hit me up anytime

I think wanting to experiment is totally normal in puberty. Things are going crazy in your body and mind and hormones. And its the time to figure this stuff out, and how else will you do that but by experimenting? It doesn't mean you are bi or gay or straight, it just means you haven't figured everything out yet

Just be safe, be careful, and ride it out, do what you have to do to figure things out.

And yeah, I think attraction and sex are not necessarily the same. For most people they are, but some people they are not. And why stress about it until you figure out who you are? Is the label important to you this early?

It could be just a phase things or it could just be part of who you are, the key is seeing it through and seeing where it takes you. Hormones have a lot to do with how we feel when it comes to sex, but I think sexuality is more of an emotional thing. Take your time, dont stress it, enjoy yourself, and be careful.

You could absolutely be hetero-romantic and bisexual.
But give it time, decide what you feel is best to call it, or do about it.

As far as I know, the thing you want to do call hook up. Many guys who are sexually questioning or confuse or in the closet will chose to do so. I won't judge guy if they hook up with other guy. We are in the 21th century it getting notmal for guys to experience with guys now.

Thanks for all your responses guys :) Just to clarify, I'm 17

I used to feel the same way as you do, after working out that I was somewhat sexually attracted to guys as well. Later on down the line I now desire relationships with guys too. Things change a lot over time.
I think that my best advice is to stay open-minded, be honest to yourself. Sexuality is a very confusing thing, especially for teenagers, with a wide spectrum and set of labels. Try to worry less about having a label, and instead more about being comfortable with whoever you are attracted to, and let time work out who you want to date, who you want to try stuff with, etc...
Maybe now you only want sexual relations with guys, maybe that will change, maybe it won't. Don't worry too much about a label, and just be open-minded, un-confined by a label. Let time and experience work it out.

Hmm I think it's just a phase or experiment kind of thing. First you gotta find a guy whose willing to do that with you and your good. If you liked it a lot then I say you like guys too. I don't see a line to draw but there may be one the other VT members could say :)

Sexual attraction is the core of attraction, so you may feel like you don't want a romantic relationship but that might change with a certain person since you can never know in advance.
But in all these cases I say , fuck it, you're still young you're constantly changing. There's no need to label yourself anything yet. Go for what feels right and if someone comes along that you want a relationship with it might happen.

Would you call it bisexual and hetero-romantic or something like that? Is sexuality different from romantic attraction?

Yep, you said it: heteroromantic bisexual.

[Drewboyy]

It's probably a phase. At one point I wanted to experiment and when I did I hated it afterwards. So be our guest and try but if you dont like it thennI'm sorry

Idk I'm in the same situation as you and I have a gf
