this in no way makes you gay it simply means that you have some gay tendances. im a lesbian and have many gay straight bi and bi curious friends . it just means you may want to try a gay experience . hope this helps .

Bi-Curious would suggest you are possibly bisexual.

Hmmm...
Normal? What may be normal for some may not be normal for others.
I'm assuming that you are contemplating - or thinking about pursuing some type of relationship (either sexual or not) with someone of the same sex (assuming you are identifying yourself as heterosexual at this point). Some people will say this is "normal" and is a normal stage in your developing sexual identity. Some will say that this isn't normal and you are either bi or gay.
So from my viewpoint, being "bi curious" does NOT make you gay. Being gay is more than just sex with someone of the same sex. It's a lifestyle, a culture. Person's who are gay will say that being gay is just like being straight - what makes you straight? I don't think there's nothing wrong with looking at other men - honestly, there are some very hot guys out there! But, when you start thinking about being with them sexually, that's when things start to become a little fuzzy.
You're not gay until you begin to be with men only and start identifying yourself as gay (there are lots of gay men and women who are by most definitions gay, but have not publicly identified themselves as such. Hence the term 'in the closet'" Another important thing to note is that one (or two or three or...whatever) sexual encounter with a man still does NOT make you gay. There are many, MANY men out there who have had some type of sexual experience with a man during their formative years of sexual development but are now happily married men, with children and careers and would not dream of looking back or wanting to be gay. You yourself may decide to try being with a man and decide that you don't like it, at which point you will continue to be with women only and only identify yourself as heterosexual.
Thus making you at one time in your life, bi curious. Not gay.
Hope this helps.
