Does this mean I'm gay even though I love women?

A male United States age 30-35, *onfusedd_17 writes:

I'm an 18 year old "boy" and heading to college soon. My first time I was curious to porn was in the 6th grade. I watched gay porn and immediately was hooked. I began masturbating to it and now I look at men on the streets and sometimes get aroused. I've always liked women and considered myself as straight. Truth is, I would never like to have a relationship with a man. My question is, I see men as more of a sexual kind of thing and I see women as someone to love (in a relationship) but not for sex. Does this mean I'm gay? Even though I love women?

pancakes rule agony aunthave you ever been with a women you love? I remember that for a while I got aroused from girls and although I loved guys, I could never see myself being satisfied by a guy.

Although I had got off with a couple of guys before, the first time I kissed and then had sex with a guy who I was actually attracted to was when I was 17.

It changed for me then, I would still consider myself totally straight because I only want to give myself to men now, however, I'd be open to a threesome with another girl.

But I do only get going properly when I'm with a man and I think that unless you explore who you love in a sexual and emotional way and maybe even try kissing a man, you won't find your answer.

Personally, I don't think labelling sexuality is ever a good idea. You are attracted to whoever you're attracted to and whether that's girls or guys it honestly doesn't matter. Just have fun with whoever you feel it's right and you'll be fine! Good luck - B xxx

A male reader, Russell101 United Kingdom +, writes (9 May 2010):

It can be very confusing for a boy of your age. I think there is something about the male genre that stimulates you rather than the individual men themselves. I think this is somewhat similar to how women sometimes feel about each other without being lesbian. With regards to watching gay porn, there are obviously a number of erect penises on show, but the penis is such an iconic masculine symbol that I think this is affecting you on a more subconscious level than the actual sexual act between 2 men. You will only really know in time what your true sexual orientation is, but the most important thing to remember is that whether gay, straight or bi, it really doesn't matter!

QuirkLady agony auntThe best part of today's world is getting to define your own sexual orientation. You may be straight but leaning, bisexual, or gay. It's up to you and you don't have to pigeonhole yourself into one specific way or another. Just be open and honest, and always practice safe sex. You will figure it out for yourself in time.
