Just as people are never 100% germ free or 100% good or bad, people are not 100% straight. --- I know this might trigger a bunch of teens here but that is precisely my point. There are sexual attractions, romantic attractions, gender identities, sexual preferences - an ample range of tastes and flavors. As humans we love boxes and classifications but they are truly limited for our understanding. You cannot make choices based on what you are but what you WANT. It's like saying that I won't eat until I know 100% sure that I made the right choice at the restaurant and I know for sure my hands are 100% germ free.

That is so true and I think as you get older this makes more sense. And the thing is with being a teenager, you're hormones are raging you're confused about lots of things which is perfectly normal. Give yourself chance to mature and grow as a person. Im not against being with a women I have abit of curiosity about it despite only ever being with men. But what you said about different attractions is so true.

Human sexuality is waaay more complex than those labels. Labels are the most pernicious thing for someone with OCD.

I believe it’s a spectrum and we are all at different ends I would say I’m bisexual if someone asked But I would say I’m sexually attracted to Boys:70% Girls:30% And emotionally attracted to Boys:40% Girls:60% And that probably changes a lot but there is no need to put labels on things Your you not bisexual

Bisexual is when you are attracted to males and females.

So I’ve talked to a couple of gay people and they all told me the same thing. They ALWAYS knew they liked guys and they have ever gotten aroused by a woman in their life. In fact they told me that they always found a woman’s body disgusting. Looking back in my life I’ve been attracted to girls for as long as I can remember even before puberty. All my fantasies were about girls and I can’t remember a time where I felt the same for a guy (because it never happened). At the end I can still get aroused by women and you can clearly see how much stupid this obsession about being gay is. Gay people can’t get instinctively aroused by a woman and like it. Groinal responses and sensations don’t mean anything because they simply do not bring joy or a feeling of desire. Instead they bring panic. I once got a groinal when “testing my reactions” and I was sitting there crying like my life is over. That’s not how genuine attraction works and no one has woken up one day feeling different and no one has been secretly gay and never noticed it and spent his whole life into women instead.

If you truly aren''t homophobic you wouldn't be afraid of being gay unless in very specific cases of bisexual cycling, what is the difference?

Hi everyone, I’ve been really anxious lately, and I just need to get this out of my head. Someone recently told me that maybe I’m bisexual — that I might be more sexually attracted to women, but more romantically attracted to men. That bisexuality is not 50/50. And ever since I heard that, I’ve been spiraling. The thing is: I don’t want this to be true. It scares me. I don’t feel romantic attraction to women, I’ve never wanted to be in a relationship with one. But yes, I get aroused by fantasies involving women — and that makes me feel broken or like I’ve been lying to myself. I love my boyfriend deeply, I don’t want to lose him. I want to feel fully connected to him, physically and emotionally. But now I’m stuck in this obsessive loop of questioning: “What if I’m just in denial?” “What if I’m not really straight?” “What if this is why my libido is low?” It’s exhausting, and I don’t know if this is OCD, anxiety, or if something is fundamentally wrong. Has anyone else felt this split — romantic feelings for one gender, sexual feelings for another? I feel so alone and scared. Thanks for listening.
