    I think I might be gay, but I'm not sure. How do I know?

      I too, feel "different" when I was growing up. And being different isn;t always easy, but sure has it perks. I get friends more easily, because i feel like I understand how girls feel, while can also see it from boy's perception. Don't get caught up in the idea of "knowing". Just embrace you for who you are  ;D

          I too was at an experimentation point in my life when i was in High school. I slept with both men and women. Men, since i was 9 yrs old. Women since i was 13. And I actually LIKED both of them. Until, I earned my "red wings" in college. That was truly a first and last experience for me. Haven't wanted to have sex with a woman since then. HAVE had sex with 2 women, but they were both 1 nite stands. So basically what I am saying is that i agree with this post. We are who we are until we decide to be something else. And i do believe we are born this way, but, our exoeriences during our life time may mold us one way or the other.

            I'm 32 and I'm still unsure, I consider myself now 95% gay. 5% goes for the fact that sometimes (quite rarely TBH) I feel attracted by a woman, altough I've never seriously considered having sex. I think it might just get akward. On the other hand, I'm gay but I really don't like men, I have no male friends and if I werent with my partner I honestly wouldn't feel like talking to gay men. 😕

              Since you are here, in a gay porn site, you are quite gay. I'm not sure = I'm afraid to confess to myself.

                1. You like to see hot boys whether on tv, magazine or real life
                2. You have some feelings towards handsome men and your dick may get hard
                3. You are attracted to men more than to women
                4. If you ever been with a guy sexually, you liked it…....

                  When you masturbate, what ever you think about is what you are.  I mean if you think about sex involving men or penis, you are gay.  It's that easy.  The fact that you are asking the question is a good indicator as well.

                      if your attracted  to Adam Levine or at one point Justin Timberlake.
                      if your attracted to Jude Law in Gattica or Bradley Cooper in Failure to Launch.
                      if you haven't rushed to see Teen Mom Farrah sex tape
                      if you haven't seen Paris Hilton sex tape One Night in Paris and you have seen it and  Rick Soloman gets you off more than she does.
                      if your read James Deen blog and your not reading just looking at the pictures you looking at James more than his cofuckers in the scenes he does.
                      if you know who Bo Derek is and how she looked in 10 and not Wayne's World
                      then your on the St8 side.

                        JUST keep in mind one thing = being gay is not a crime or bad thing. People should accept who they are. Just enjoy your life and be yourself. If you like men then it is no sin.

                          I'm not so sure either since I never dated a girl.
                          I'm guessing I'm gay because I usually attracted to guys not girls, but sometimes I can watch female porn too.

                          Makes me wonder if I'm bisexual or gay…

                            sexuality is fluid. Just because you're straight doesn't mean you are attracted to every individual of the opposite sex, so just because someone is gay doesn't make them attracted to everyone of the same sex. You shouldn't label yourself, things happen, love is love regardless of gender/sexual pref. I think you are def curious about some same-sex action, though  :cheesy2:

                                @seanbradley:

                                I always knew….
                                I always loved playing "doctor". changing time in the locker room, and I would often find myself day dreaming about being able to hook up with a man.

                                Same here. I remember as a child touching myself while watching Lou Ferrigno in Hulk (yes, Im in my 40s :P)

                                  Johns3: I'm guessing I'm gay because I usually attracted to guys not girls, but sometimes I can watch female porn too.

                                  But who do you want to be naked and busy with?

                                  There is too much fuss over labels. Gore Vidal felt that you were whatever you were doing at the time. You could be gay with a man, str8 with a woman, and like most of us I suppose, asexual in between. Except for all the thoughts about sex…. Hmm. Maybe the truth is, as I always claim, that "real men" do anything sexual that they want to do, in the same way that the joke that claims "real men don't eat quiche" is readily countered by asserting that Real Men eat anything they want; wanna make something of it?

                                  I used to worry about this crap, but at some point I decided that since I am a man, anything I do is something that a Man does. I am the definition of masculine. If my equipment got shot off in the war as with that Hemingway hero with the unspecified wound, I would still be a man. And just as doing it with a woman does not make me a woman, doing it with a gay man does not make me gay, though it might indicate I am one horny sumbitch and, hey, we were stuck in the rain with nothing to do.

                                  It's only partly a joke that the difference between a strait man and a gay dude is a six pack. One current U.S. presidential candidate in the clown car (guess which party of hypocrities) claims that people can become gay in prison, just because. Southern belle and "confirmed bachelor" Lindsay Graham clutches her pearls regularly but has had the guts to claim that Republican dupe Caitlin Jenner, nee Olympic decathlon champion Bruce, is welcome to join in the party if she wants to.

                                  More obvious may be the point that sexual activity is fluid and situational. Just because all those paid dupes getting sucked by a man at a gloryhole and think they are being fellated by a female supposedly do not know what is really going on (like the hired pickups on BaitBus or the shocked "victims" on Straight2Gay, what we know is that they managed to get off, whatever they thought was hoovering their horn, so it is not Actually the sex of the partner and, surprise, sex is in your thoughts first.

                                  I was thinking that it might matter whether you felt most comfortable and at home with gays or straits, but there is lots of self-loathing and I cannot be the only one here who went through a confused and tearful phase of feeling cursed when my less than half-hearted efforts to enjoy sex with women were not satisfactory. It is probably still common for dudes to spend years going through the motions without a lot of passion before they manage some other accommodation.

                                  That is different from the old men well over half a century who have lost their wives through death or divorce or are sexless due to the wife's medical situation and then, no longer familiar with dating rituals, decide to exploit their "bicurious" side. Now, that aspect may have been there for years, but it sure is convenient how they manage to, in the words of Woody Allen, double their chances of a date on Saturday night.

                                  If everyone were not bigoted and prejudiced, sex would be sex, but as it is, there are still stigmas. A famed U.S. singer was in the news when she got a serious girlfriend and found it not at all convenient or readily accepted when she was surprised to find herself in love with a man.
                                  If it really were equally convenient and socially approved to have consensual sex with anyone of any gender, there would be a lot less horny people running around in a rage. One thing at least Freud's brilliant follower Wilhelm Reich got right is that orgasms are the enemy of Fascists.

                                  The truth is undeniable-- "When you're hot you're hot, and when you're not, you're not." All the rest is commentary.

                                    This Gay Test turned up somewhere lately, perhaps in one of the forums hereabouts. Feeding into stereotypes.

                                    The New York Native, best gay paper ever in the U.S., used to make fun of stereotypes, as two men in leather at a bar discussing recipe details or stock market trades.

                                    Years ago when the woman who cut my hair in West Hollywood (aka "Boy's Town") found out that I did not know Larry Hagman, star of the TV show "Dallas," was the son of singer/actor Mary Martin, she shrieked in outrage, "You can't be gay!"

                                    "Passing" as strait the way the way powerful and notoriously homophobic Republican lawmaker Dennis Hastert,once third in line to be U.S. President (right after the Vice President in the line of succession) is a lot like someone passing as "white," though at least if race is yr guilty secret, you don't have to come out to your mother.

                                    Maybe the real question about whether you are gay or strait is why it matters. You could just have sex with str8 men and call yourself bisexual, but in reality there were no gay/strait categories in practice until heterosexuality was invented by shrinks over a century ago to compare these "normal" people to "inverts" who perverted the natural order and committed "the disgusting and abominable crime against nature," just like some 140 animal species, depending on how you count those that change their sex like the aliens in an Ursula K. LeGuin novel. Note the assumption that gay and normal are opposites. Without that kind of narrow-minded anti-sexual bigotry, it wold be a lot easier for people to partner freely instead of remain under the thumb of anhedonia, which really IS a perversion.

                                    [Since there may or may not be an attachment, Preview of this post does not indicate, just to be on the safe side I'll explain that the comedy "Gay Test" proposed is whether you thought the guy in the chair was cute, because if you also noticed how naff the chair is, you were definitely gay.]
