- I was gonna reply sarcastically because I thought the question was a joke mocking the people who think sexuality is a choice, but then I saw your comments.
Your sexuality is just whoever you are attracted to. If you're attracted to men, you're straight. If you're attracted to women, you're gay. If you're attracted to both, then you're bisexual, and that's fine, you don't have to pick one.0|00|0Is this still revelant?Yea I’m aware I just don’t feel the same when liking a girl like I see myself as a guy but then those crushes don’t last long but they are stronger than crushes I’ve had on guys so I’m just stumped ig and doubting will just make it worse

- Yes, most people are conditioned in childhood and are on autopilot for the rest of their lives, aren't they? Kinda like sheep. Choice is (would be) what makes us human. Most people these days watch TV all day and have their lives dictated by what they see. Simple as that. Which is why I threw mind away many years ago and haven't looked back. This has allowed my mind to expand beyond what would be possible if you stare at a flashing screen all day.
To address your question, I would like to open up your mind a bit more than it seems to be already open. Let's turn the question around, shall we? Why would you need to choose? Like stick to one preference for life? Can't you be spontaneous? Let the moment decide. Allow it to unfold and manifest as it will? Say be excited by men most of the time but if you get wet from a woman's kiss just go with the flow?0|00|2Is this still revelant? - It was apparent as far as I can remember. I think that it’s perhaps more challenging those who aren’t straight as they may receive socialization assuming they will be straight and as a child it’s not as obvious that they won’t feel that way when older. So in their teens they have to recognize that the attraction for the other sex they were told was going to happen isn’t going to happen.
based on your comments below I’d note that who you attract and how you dress don’t have anything to do with your sexuality. Who is the idea of having sex with appealing? It’s that simple, really. A good awareness is if you only really fall in love with one group that’s also good to know.
if you have severe body dysmorphia that might adjust the above.0|00|0Is this still revelant?True, my problem is I feel that I’m a guy when talking to girls and stuff and it has me kinda confused because since 7th grade I had this boyish air about me and I can’t place it

1144- Anonymous3 moI didn’t “decide”, I just went to school and realized I had crushes on boys since 5 years old and around 10ish I started to realize some girls were pretty but in the sense of like damn! The boy I like is gonna prefer her!!
I always imagined talking to boys on the phone since age of 5. I would hide under my covers and pretend I was talking to the boy I liked lol and I still like boys and I never found girls attractive in the way that I want to kiss or be with one romantically at all. It just never crossed my mind no desire just see that some girls are pretty just like some clothes and shoes are appealing type of way.. and sometimes it feels like a threat but I’m mostly confident in myself.
I love men and will always love men only. 💕🍆lol 🤪!!0|10|0 - Anonymous3 moNo one "decides" on their sexuality. We're either attracted to certain things and it's set very early. I was kinky at 7 but didn't realize what it was until I was 13 or 14 and found "The Story of O" in a mall bookstore. You don't have to label yourself. Date whomever attracts you and is willing. If anyone asks "are you?", you don't have to answer.0|00|0
- Well it's like this for me I am a Man an I don't try not to be because I enjoy being a Man so very very much it's just that I like fucking other Men at the same time as I do Women so for me it wasn't deciding my sexuality it's that I've known what I like at a young age it's finding away to have them both at tge same time an be able to keep them both at tge same time.
God Bless0|00|0 - Early one morning many years ago I looked into a mirror and noticed I did not have anything hanging between my legs, only this slit which was somewhat wet. At that point I decided to be a girl!0|00|0
- I’ve always known I like girls. I had crushes throughout all of school and they turned a bit sexual when the hormones hit. When college came, I clicked with a few guys to where I could have dated them, but I had zero interest in anything sexual. From then on I knew I was only into girls1|00|0
- I admire masculine character traits and although I'm not super interested in sex, I'm mostly attracted to women.
So I'm, assuming I'm straight until proven otherwise.
There's no sense in over complicating things.0|00|0 - I just chose to like girls as I didn't know anything about lesbians till I was in my late teens or early 20s.0|00|0
- I don’t think I did really lol I’m bi curious I would say I’ve been married to a man for 10 years dated men all my life but when I see a sexy woman with a nice ass I can’t help but check her out and I fantasize about women from time to time0|10|0
- As much as I decided to be born male. In other words, I didn't decide. I'm a guy and I'm a (mentally) healthy guy too. And therefore, I have always been attracted towards girls. Even prior to getting hit by puberty.1|00|0
- I didn't decide. I was blown away by a girl sitting on top of the outside fan of an air conditioning unit at the pool. Changed my entire 12 year old life!0|00|0
Now that I think about it I’ve been in 2 relationships that I wasn’t even interested in the person I was just responding to my hormones

Well I’m actually serious because of my sexuality I find it hard, I’m bi but I only attract guys that I know of, I’ve crushed on girls before which those crushes were strong compared to those of which I had on guys.. now to make it confusing for me I also have a tendency to act masculine in a way and it’s been like that since 7th grade so I’m confused again

Okay, but what does that have to do with your question? I'm confused, because it sounds to me like you're asking why people choose to be gay, bi, straight and so on.
I’m asking how they knew for 100% that they were bi, straight, gay or whatever sexuality they go as because it’s hard for me to tell when I have strong urges to kiss girls yet never dated a girl and stuff, it’s been like this since 7th grade
Yea porn is no use because I don’t look for it actively but irl I’ll end up staring so😶
