Because you are overattending. Men are also attractive. And finding someone attractive doesnt mean you are gay. So you cancsay that, ut never happened before. Yeah, it didnt. But because you never thought about it. Now you try to avoid finding men atrractive. Dont do this. Just dont care about it. If you try avoiding thinking about elephants are attractive ( it wont work for you, beacuse you will find it silly but someone can have that kind of obsession) you will them attractive. Don't worry, you are just overthinking and attending. All bcz of OCD

Hey brother I was watching a video by Christy hodges yesterday who also has ocd and is an advocate. She said we notice more things based on our theme because they are kn our radar so if you have harm ocd u tend to notice every news story about harm, every show with harm in it stands out more, so since you have hocd you are noticing every penis because its on your radar and it's not your fault. Your brain has a glitch. Hope this helps and that you start to feel better

Chrissie Hodges has the best videos. Not to tell you to seek reassurance but she has a great way of explaining different themes and OCD.

Whatās everyoneās experience with loss of attraction to their preferred gender? (Not looking for reassurance, and I know people say stop trying to get it back) When I see a good looking woman, I feel sad that I canāt get feelings like I use too. Like the very bottom of my stomach feels heavy like itās depressed⦠I know I want to be attracted to woman but this SOOCD and false attraction is destroying me.

I love my boyfriend I find him attractive, and I know itās a choice to see that and appreciate it, but why do I get struck by some men I see who are cute but Iām used to Josh? Itās like he doesnāt strike me as much anymore. Heās cute, but like I want him to strike me and maybe it takes me recognizing what I love. But Iām used to him lol, like I can notice other menās attraction and obviously not wanna be with them. Iām just tryna figure out healthy ways of thinking. Like I see Josh I notice him but Iām not struck by his handsomeness Iām kind of used to t I guess? Is this infatuation

i was scrolling through instagram and an ad suddenly appeared to me. they were all female t**nagers soccer players. but what my eyes saw first were thighs and legs and the worst part is not like i simply recognised impersonally an attractive look, i automatically perceived attractiveness and se&uality of the thighs. why did it happen to me? I dont want it. I don't desire it. So why was i able to find the legs attractive? When I saw the faces I knew I wasnt attracted, but what about the legs? I feel utterly defeated. I'm disgusted and traumatised by the fact that i perceived those legs and thighs attractively. i'm starting to feel like a ****.
