How do you know you are gay

[Patoma]

I have been here for quite a while now and I have notice that there are quite a few gay people on this forum. Although, I know that being gay his most likely due to per-occurrence and not something that most gays chose, I am unsure how it must feel to be gay and how you particularly know that you are gay? I find it very fascinating to try to engage in discussion that relate to sexual orientation because I believe it is an issue that divide the world so much today.

If you'd fuck a dude, you're gay.

Or, if you're female and you'd bang a chick, you're gay (by the generalised meaning of gay).

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

I imagine that it is known to someone, that they are gay, by their inclinations to be interested in their same sex.

[Gauthier]

If you have to loudly insist that homosexuality is an abomination and gays are pedophiles, etc. etc. then you're probably gay and in denial. Or buttfucking when you think nobody's watching.

Interesting because many people have some level of affection for a good friends of theirs but they don't consider themselves attracted to them.

Not so.

But I lol'd.

@OP: I imagine it's actually pretty simple. Ok, so like, I like boobs right? A lot. Bunches. K? And I love vagina's. They are so damned awesome.

I am a dude, so I am straight. I imagine being gay is pretty similar - except the exact opposite.

usually if you're sexually attracted to men and you're a man, that means your gay.

its not really a question that can be debated ...

cause i fuck men

[Bitchkitten]

Reminds me of a funny story.

When my gay friend came to stay with me and my mildly homophobic boyfriend (he'd deny it) he was a bit uncomfortable. He asked me if my friend had ever been with a woman. I told him "no."

"Well how does he know he's gay?"
"Tony, have you ever been with a guy?"
A slight offended "No."
"Then how do you know you're straight?"
He got the point.

Most friends don't bang each other.

There are exceptions, but that involved alcohol, and didn't actually reflect necessary sexual attraction.

[Maroza]

lets change the question to one that not everyone can answer. how do you know your gay if you are sexually confused? that might get more than "you fuck another man/woman"

[Kalaspia-Shimarata]

If I ever get attracted to men

I've been with a couple of women but I consider myself hetero, not bi. This is because I lust after men in general, care for them or not. With women, I have to love them before I have any desire at all.

If I ever get attracted to men

[Wazkyraque]

Exactly, It should not be a debatable question, but yet many people are so divided on this subject that it as turn it into something debatable and something that divide the world. Plus, I think there are some gay people out their who are unaware of the sign and what is consider homo. I and my politically intuitive friends tend to have conflicting opinion on the reality of this. He believe gayness is a illness that can be cure, while I strongly disagree, even though it goes against some of my believe, I know it is probably the case.

Well, given the proper name 'homosexuality,' you'd imagine that sexual attraction towards the same sex would be enough to consider you homosexual, whether or not sexual attraction occurs before or after emotional attachment. (Or bisexual, as would obviously be more appropriate for you.)

Naturally, we all know sexuality lies along a sliding scale and people aren't just slapped into cut-and-dry categories. Still, if you've fucked a few women, you'd have to be at least somewhere near bi.

Of course, this is all irrelevant to what you choose to consider yourself.

True 'nuff. But when I go looking for a partner I look for men. For practical puposes, I'm hetero. My having some flexibility, technically I'm "barely bi."

That sounds right. "Practically hetero." I feel like that should be on packaging somewhere...

"Our shitty deodorant is so manly, even gay customers will become practically hetero! Don't ask what happens to the ladies."

*shrugs*

Writing from experience, I knew when I knew that I was attracted to men and was downright repulsed by women.

Interesting, this approach seem correct, but it's so widely controversial. Like many people think if you are led to believe you are homo, bi or whatever, then you will be.

^this.

[Nightkill the Emperor]

I'd assume you know. I knew when I was bi.

You mean you were on attracted to anyone else?

Some people believe that the thought of buttfucking is contradictory to any form of believe in god, and that is where I kind of agree a bite.

Why would there be Virgina for female and non for male?
