You’re
homosexual if you feel sexually attracted to and want a relationship
with someone of the same sex.
Sexual
preference is not a choice. It’s rather something you discover about
yourself. Some discover this during childhood, while others find out
much later. There are even people who first marry and have children
before they discover or admit that they don’t fancy people of the opposite
sex.
It’s
not always easy to know your sexual preference.
Sexual
fantasies
or a single sexual experience don’t tell the whole story. A girl can
fantasize about sex with her best friend, but turn out to be heterosexual
later on. Or a guy can make love to girls but discover only later
that he only falls in love with guys. Most people need time to get to
know themselves in this area.
Many
gays and lesbians keep their sexual preference secret, fearing rejection.
That’s why many teens with homosexual feelings live with the idea they
are the only ones who are “different,” while it concerns an estimated
5-10% of the population. It normally takes some time to come into contact
with other homosexuals.

Where
can I meet other homosexuals?

I
don’t want to be a homosexual.

My
girlfriend and I masturbate each other. Does that mean we are lesbians?

I’m
gay, but I am also a Christian. Fellow Christians say I should abstain
from sex. I’m very confused.
