How do I know if I'm straight?

I pretty much grew up in small town, conservative, I didn't even know about gay people. All I knew was that women should marry men and have babies. As I got older I learned about it but never really related to it. I just knew early on that I was very much attracted to the male form but guys just never ever, not even once gave me the tingles or made me feel comfortable. But there hot though and they got dicks which is just beautiful. With girls I'm always a billion times more comfortable, and I can 100% be myself and there's not this weird discomfort. Then I went to college and the world pretty much changed for me in a lot of ways. I started watching Orange is the new black and I've never seen a lesbian who wasn't this butch scary ass girl. It was this hot girl with glasses and tattoos and it just sort of got to me. Then tiktok happened and fem girly tattooed girls just sort of gets to me. But I've never felt anything for a real life female or any of my friends in a sexual way. But then again none of them has tattoos, glasses or any of those vibes I think is hot. Does this mean Im bi? Straight? Confused?

  • I get you, i grew up in a pretty conservative family but i have cousins who are openminded and obviously the internet and I remember when i was younger i thought two girls was disgusting but I don’t remember if that was because i thought kissing in general was disgusting or lesbians but I obviously matured and learnt more about stuff like this.
    I’m kinda like you. It’s normal to say that men are hot and point that out but I’m also comfortable noticinf that women are beautiful too but I don’t really felt like that for anyone i know. There was this one girl in my class a few years who i found really pretty and I honestly have no clue but i get you when you say you're more comfortable around girls because same! But that could just be because i never really had any male friends and then i went to an all girls school so no chance for that.
    This isn’t helping but I’m glad there are other people who are confused as hell too 😂 i do internally say I’m bi though I haven’t really told anyone. If you really wanna know, you could maybe try it?

    • Thanks for replying. Its nice to know someone else feels the same sort of weird confusion. I guess we will find out as we get older. Goodluck 💙

    • Good luck to you too, hope you find your answers x

  • I'm not going to bother reading the whole thing.
    Do you find women sexually attractive? If so, will you act on it? If you answered no to both, you're straight.
    If you find them sexually attractive, you're bicurious.
    If you said yes to both, then you're bisexual or a lesbian if you have no interest in men.

  • If you're attracted to both men and women you are bi. If you're not 100% certain just experiment until you figure it out. There is no rush and no rules.

  • Go to a Christian six therapist

  • By experimenting.

  • how fuckin stupid

  • For starters, you shut off the media

  • yes, you are right... (confused) time to experiment...

  • You will find out soon

  • I would say you may be a Bi-curious, to say the least. If you end up having more experiences, with nice guys and girls, who treat you well, care about you, you may have some parameters to see clearly if you are attracted by both or just one of them.

  • It means the indoctrinating machine got to you.
