I don't know how to determine if I am or not.. I do get attracted by women; and ironically all my relationships with men never work out! I don't feel chemistry with them like I think I should. I try to find guys right for me, but it never works. Honestly, I've been single for a while now, and I think it's because I'm gay..
have you ever thought about being bi? maybe that's what you are maybe you should find the cutest girl to you and kiss her and if you like it then who knows
You know exactly how to determine whether you're gay--date women.
But be warned: the huge majority of women who flunk straight relationships are straight, who either find the wrong boyfriend or *are* the wrong girlfriend.
Well first off Gay means a guy that likes guys a Lesbian is a girl that likes girls. I don't know you but you might just be going after guys for there money and power or looks? If this is you then try going out with one of your guy friends that you get along with really well. I wouldn't blame you for thinking guys are not attractive cause they are not. From what I have heard and seen girls go after guys that can provide for and take care of a family, and there are some guys that look like they can't even get an ugly women and end up with absolutely gorgeous partners; so maybe drop the material things and go after a guy that only has his personality going for him. Otherwise you are a lesbian :)
Well, do this little experiment in your head: Imagine a date with a woman. Now imagine having sex with that woman. How does that make you feel? Do you like that? Now do the same thing but with a man. Same questions. If you can thoroughly imagine them both and enjoy the thoughts, then you are probably bi. If you are in no way attracted to men, but still like the women then you are gay.
I can imagine myself with both, that's the thing. The feeling, the dating, everything! The only thing I can't picture is me getting married with someone other than a man.. - 4 months ago
This may seem completely off topic, but I have a point.
What was your homelife like with your family? Any alcoholism or drug use? Parents fighting? Divorce? Anything else that would be crazy, upsetting or chaotic?
So much for information uncovered through years of scientific research, and for real insight into your life.
P.S. The integrity of much of Alfred Kinsey's research has been questioned by later scholars. So tread carefully on that path. - 4 months ago

P.P.S.
If the down arrow means that I was correct, and the questions hit a little too close to home, you can message me later if you want. I won't hold it against you. I genuinely appreciate how upsetting this stuff can be... - 4 months ago
Question Asker
So you're saying I might 'think' I'm gay because of things going on at home? My dad just left my mom, and moved to Belgium without letting my family know. He said it was a business trip, but once his plane landed he left her a horrifying e-mail. I'm grounded, if that counts? (Yes, I still live with my parents, and under their roof I have to obey rules). I've been thinking about this gay thing since I was in my early teens.. It's not something recent - 4 months ago
@ AtomizerJr: I am aware that the Kinsey tests are controversial because of the bias used in sample testing. I just used it to illustrate that labels are overrated. I also read that gay men have lower levels of testosterone than staight men so this points to it being a birth thing rather than some "odd" lifestyle choice that you can be "cured off". Why would you want to alter who you are are? I'm bi but my sibling is straight so what is your point on this childhood trauma/gay thing?(please see the other anonymous comment I left below advising the questioner). Aside from insinuating that being gay/bi is something strange and unnatural.
I think you should try kissing a girl first and see if you like it. If you do, go further. Go on a date and see what you like.
It's hard to put a label on it because not everyone is strictly straight or gay. Kinsey had a scale from 1-10 which calculated to what degree a person was straight or not so its pretty fluid. I spent so much time worrying about my sexuality but you feel what you feel for a reason-you can't force a spark if its not there.
I have always had major trust issues with men so sometimes I wonder "did that make me bisexual?" but I've another sibling who had a similar upbringing (obviously lol) and is totally straight so it must be just me! So I would tend to believe that you're born straight/gay/bisexual. You usually become aware of it early on only its hard to accept it at that early age. Just go for who you want without labelling yourself yet.
I've been with a girl before. Like, further than kissing type; and I loved it. At first, it was just to mess around because we were drinking - But a couple weeks afterward, we went further, and we were completely sober. No one told us to, it was completely intentional. I feel like women give me a feeling/excitement men don't give me; and vise-versa. There's some things men give that women can't! I love both.. I really do - 4 months ago
