Before? No. I used to think I'm a lesbian and it was completely obvious to me. But i fell in love with a guy and i was like, WTF?! :D Now i'm completely lost from that time... sometimes i feel more atracted to guys and sometimes more to women... and sometimes i feel like i don't need sex at all :D I'm a virgin so i think i should just try and find it out ;)

I've had a couple people tell me I "must be" gay because of my lack of interest in sex, but their assumption is based on the premise that I would be more highly sexual with men. In reality, I'm simply straight, but somewhat apathetic sexually.

I've always been attracted to women but never had any sexual interest with them. I questioned my sexuality and realized I have zero interest in guys. At lease with women I'd get aroused but that's as far as I wanted to go with them. To me an orgasm is just a physical association and I don't associate it with anything. I love touching and caressing a woman but I don't care whether or not it goes anywhere. I love the way woman look and think they are extremely beautiful. I can't say this for guys. So I finally concluded that I'm a romantic hetro asexual. BTW, I do have sex with my wife for her pleasure and I enjoy the sound of her orgasms. To me this is the greatest pleasure.

I have questioned it many times, and I always come up with the same answer: I am straight. Because I know this about myself, I am secure in my sexuality, which allows me to admit when another man is attractive/hot/other. I consider myself lucky in that regard.

I too am straight, but I really don't see much that's attractive about guys. Every now and then, I see one that I find very pretty (my taste was similar to my wife's), but most just don't look like anything I'd want to look at. They are either overly buff, too thin, or flabby.

Trying to decide between straight or asexual.

Um, Is asexuality common with people who have
Asperger syndrome because i've never been attracted to anyone of either gender. And i'm a strong beliver in freedom of choice if someone wants to do something then they should do it.And i belive WOMEN & MEN can be very happy being single if they so choose so. Ps Is pornography really ok to wacth? (I don't belive in hell or heaven because life is hell itself but should women feel guilty if they like to wacth porn or have sex just for heck of it as long as no one gets hurt) I've never had sex but is it normal for women to just have sex for the sake of doing it to see if they enjoy it (Provided they use birth control pills, condoms,getting blood tests regularly,ect.. :oops: :oops: :oops:

Seeleunitone over and out.. :oops: :oops:

Yes, frequently. I seem to go through phases of thinking I'm one thing or another, with the regularity of a clock's pendulum.

Right now, though, that seems to be on hiatus while I wonder whether I should even bother...

I am attracted to both genders, but don't really care to pursue either. I have little to no interest in sex. There are much more enriching and productive activities on which a person could could spend their leisure time.

I have questioned my sexuality, but not in the conventional way. My "Questioning" period was questioning asexuality. I did not become straight until I was about 19, before then I considered myself asexual.

Or maybe it's the other way around... Maybe I am asexual, and I am currently questioning and exploring my sexuality. :wink: (although considering I am a virgin, seems I've done so without all that sex stuff.)

hun i did question it all the time but now ive come to the descison that it does not matter who u i am attracted too, girl or boy but as for coming out and saying what i am i have always felt that no one else needs to know becoz one persons idea of bi and anuthers is different
i would have a relationship with a girl but wud be too intimadated to marry them as this would not be 'conforming' and thats somthing im desperate to do xx

I think that one day i want to explore the notion of heterosexuality. I've never been with a woman, they sort of scare me...
A lot of people i work with think i'm not gay. I get gropped, pinched, slapped, and verbally assaulted and i for one am sick of women treating me like that.. I'm not some sort of wounded headcase who is socially inept. I don't like the "broken wing" mentality that women scorn upon me intermittently. I makes me withdrawal. I have sort of came to a point in my life that makes me so oppositional because of how women try to placate me. Listen to me b***h about something that a sh*t ton of you would die for.. but i know my version sucks too!!

I know some may say that they have never questioned their sexuality, but in the past few years it has been just one more thing for me to reflect upon in order to understand myself as a person (like NTs, I suppose, do all the time). I think due to my Asperger's I had not been able to define my sexuality and wear it on my sleeve as much as NTs are able to, especially during my early teens. (I just didn't think about it that much.) But really knowing one's sexuality is just a matter of reflection on a body (no pun intended) of evidence. One day I simply asked myself these questions, "Do I want to have sex?" and "What gender do I want to have sex with?" The answers came pretty darn quickly! (Yes, and female.)

You don't have to be gay to hate that stuff. I get this when I'm dancing, and it really pisses me off. I don't know what to do either. When some guy pulls this kind of stunt, I just slug them, but I guess I've been taught not to hit women (unless I love them - but that's a different and much sadder story).
