Straight or Bi - and how did you realize?

Its just as possible to know your natural preferences as it is to develop them. I've explored the topic multiple times in my life and have always come to the conclusion that I'm a sex-positive asexual/straight. Friends of mine may have been straight at one point in their life, but gradually developed more of an attraction towards their own gender. Others have known they were gay/les/bi since an early age. Likewise, I know at least one person who started straight, turned bi, turned gay, went back to straight, and feels that his dynamic sexuality is completely valid. People's attractions aren't always stagnant after all. I myself used to have a huge thing for blondes, but now prefer brunettes. XD

as a young teen i was confused over whether i was straight or bi, as i loved the female body and wanted to touch boobs but in the end i never wanted to sleep with women or felt romantically attached to another women, just loved their soft bodies, so i realized i was straight straight, but understands the beauty of the female body (minus vaginas, those are gross) nevertheless no one is 100% straight, and we can all value the beauty and feel sexually aroused by the opposite sex, whether we feel romantic toward them or not it just varies on different degrees id say

If I'm not 100% straight then I am 99.9% straight. I have zero problems with people who are not straight. I understand the concept of not being straight, but I don't understand it intrinsically. I've simply never had those feelings, and I don't suspect that I ever will.

Honestly, for me, it wasn't that deep, was never uncomfortable about it. Just always thought to myself "yeah I'd date a dude"

It was middle school for me when I was beginning to ponder and question why i like certain things or why i don't, at this age. One of them being guys, i thought hard about why i was crushing over certain male rock singers and actors or some friends. So i found out i was bisexual (: But it wasn't until my freshman year of college were i found out that i wasn't bisexual, but i straight up didn't give a fuck who i dated lol or what genitalia they had or what sexuality they assigned themselves. as long as i liked their personality lol (:

But yea i guess if you're unsure and confused about it, you'll definitely find out by actually experiencing it. That's one for sure way to get an answer, i found out right away when i kissed a guy for the first time. But you don't have to experience it that way btw. Don't feel like you need to do that to get an answer. And also don't feel to pressured by it, take you're time, there's no need to stress or hurry this sort of thing out. (:

Even in 1st grade, I liked talking to girls more than guys and had certain preferences in that direction. In 2nd grade I was friends with a girl I wanted more than regular friendship with but wasn't fully aware of romance or sexuality. In 3rd grade was my first hard core crush and often looked up her dress when she was on the swing. After that I always wanted to see girls naked but didn't care much about guys. A friend showed me a Playboy when we were 10 and just went from there. Girls are prettier, smell better and are aethetically more attractive (most of the time). Though I have at times fantasized about being a girl and getting fucked by guys, I'm not attracted by guys pheromones or interested in sex with a guy as a guy. But if I could magically transform, I would be a girl (about 12, just before menstrus and never age)

Straight for me. Albeit I really don't think I should name it in full, all I can say is for legal reasons, I have zero interest in men in any capacity. Of course, if you all care to know the specifics, just feel free to let me know. I, as a male, have zero interest in other males. I'm a bit of an odd person, as I was never really interested in people or relationships growing up as a kid, and only began to care to psychologically deal with avoidance issues.

Look, It's real simple. Date who you get those butterflies for. Done. Personally for me, that was always just girls. You either find the opposite or same sex attractive, or not. You might change over time. It doesn't really matter. Just do what you want to do, and You'll do fine.
