Q: I was just wondering...how can you tell if your attracted to someone of the same sex? Like...if i look at a girl, somtimes i'll think, "oh, she's pretty" and if i look at a guy i'll think "oh he's cute." (by the way, i'm a girl) But, anyway, like, somtimes i feel attracted to guys, and i really want to get to know them, but then again, somtimes i look at some of my friends who are girls, and i just kinda..you know, wonder....heh, that sounds weird. But yeah, so i was wondering, how do you tell if your bi or gay or stuff like that.

By the way, i'm christian, so my religon is totally against things like that....so thats why i havn't talked to anyone, and i cant...
Well, first of all, would you be ok if you did end up being gay or bi? If your religion makes you afraid of being into the same sex, then it could be hard to admit to yourself if you were into women.

Most people seem to not completely understand what qualifies as being labeled gay, straight, or bi. It's simple, yet denial often confuses many people...

The definition of a heterosexual is someone who is sexually attracted to the opposite sex only. The definition of a homosexual is someone who is sexually attracted to the same sex only. The definition of a bisexual is someone who is sexually attracted to both sexes.

Being sexually attracted to someone would mean that you would want to be physically intimate with them. So, you must ask yourself, what sexes are you attracted to? If it turns out that you are not straight, be ready to accept it. Many people need a lot of time to realise that they fall into this category. But it is not a bad thing. Any sexual preferance you have is ok. Your religion may or may not agree with it, but you can not feel guilty about something you can't control. You can't "make" someone gay and you can't "make" someone straight. And remember this quote: "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."
