Am I gay if I get turned on by female bodies?

[Anonymous]

I have a boyfriend who I love A LOT. I also love his... you know what. However, if I see an attractive picture of a girl I sometimes get turned on and even masterbate. And if I see a girl with a nice figure on the street I’ll stare for a while. But this is not because I am imagining sexual actions with her, it’s more like I’m imagining myself with her body, doing sexual things with a male, if that makes sense. I always feel envious of her body. I feel like sex would be so much better with a male though and I hate the idea of touching another girl’s genitals or even making out. I could only ever imagine having a romantic relationship with a male, I couldn’t imagine myself dating another female. So why do I get turned on my girls?

You probably are bisexual or bi-curious. But then again, you might be just sexually attracted to your man, because he's your man and you love him. Sexual attraction delves into love and strong attachments for women usually. So maybe not many men you find sexually attracted to in general.

But if you are getting sexually aroused at the thought of women's bodies (generally), then you are possibly bi-sexual or bi-curious. I say bi, since you aren't adjective to the male anatomy outright. Lesbians throw-up at the idea of being with or seeing the male body naked. I've yet to hear about a full lesbian woman wanting to be sexual with a guy or the male physique. But I could be wrong. Everyone has differences and some are not explainable.

But, hey, you learned something about yourself. Don't be afraid to talk to your SO about it if that's your worry. I'm sure you still care for him regardless.

Thanks for this

Yeah no worries. Probably confusing and scary to feel this way right now. Don't sweat it and embrace yourself.

Well the first thing is "being" gay or straight is a social construct. I identify as straight but if I made out with a guy what happens? Do I suddenly change my voice and walk home to see my room is covered in cheetah print? No. Though some peoples' opinions vary, if you could see yourself marrying a gender then that determines your sexuality. I used to be bicurious. I rarely tell anyone... But I'm not ashamed. I grabbed another dudes dick and realized "yea I don't like this." So because of that I'm not gay.

Sometimes girls get turned on by thinking about people liking them, so maybe you thinking she's attractive opens your brain up to someone watching you and thinking you're attractive, i dont think you're gay though.

You're still straight, even if you're attracted to the female body, if you would never act upon it, or think it would be gross to have a sexual relationship with another woman, you're straight and not gay or bi

Thanks :)

This is normal. I can look at a hot male and appreciate his beauty. But I'm straight and I don't want to have sex with any men.

If you are feeling aroused you're probably bisexual. Even if it is just in a vicarious projection sense.

Not sure girls are turning you on, you just admire feminine beauty in others

[hammeronfire]

you like both so you are bi

[Seppelson]

Yes that is the definition of gay

[Asker]
