am i gay?

Many people have feelings towards other people of the same sex, and wonder whether this means that they are gay. Some people who are attracted to other people of the same sex are gay and go on to have sexual relationships with people of the same sex. But other people who have gay feelings find that these change over time and they become attracted to people of the opposite sex. Other people are attracted to both men and women, and have relationships with both. Some people are not attracted to anyone and wonder if this is a sign of homosexuality.

i think i might be gay - now what do i do?

Men who call themselves gay are sexually attracted to and fall in love with other men. Their sexual feelings toward men are normal and natural for them. These feelings emerge when they are boys and the feelings continue into adulthood. Although some gay men may also be attracted to women, they usually say that their feelings for men are stronger and more important to them.

i think i might be bi-sexual - now what do i do?

Bisexuals are people who have the capacity to love people of their own and other genders. This capacity may include physical, sexual, and emotional attraction or relationships with men, women, and transgender people. Over different phases in life, one might feel equally attracted to each gender, or to one more than the others. These attractions may change over time. Being bisexual does not define our lifestyle or our sexual behavior: bisexual people are monogamous, polyamorous, and celibate, as are heterosexual and lesbian and gay people.
