I feel like if you feel like you have a connection with someone you shouldn't put a label on it. I'm straight and I've only been with men, but I've had this forever crush on one of my female friends, if she'd ask me out i'd say sure. I check out girls too. but i still consider myself straight. You should love and be with whoever you want without being labeled :)

Good topic!<br /> <br /> I always feel like one of the guys, grew up in the hood in Los Angeles with a bunch of boys, skateboarding etc. Used to tape up my breasts, wear baggy clothes, haha. I definitely am attracted to females at times, but for four years I have been madly in love with a gay guy. But hey, love is love is love is love. It sucks when we label it =)

100% gay, have dated guys in the past, but for the past couple years I've had 0 interest in dating anybody or seeking out sex.

im a girl, and im straight. i had my first boyfriend when i was 3. my dad found us kissing in the bushes outside our house and moved us acrost the US emedently. lol sorry but i dont think ive ever been atracted to girls that way, i meen i use to play spin the boddle with a few friends of mine and sometimes yeah it would land on a girl and yeah we would kiss but never really got the ZING that guys give off. not shure im explaining it right but there ya go!

Hell I still dunno what I feel.<br /> I am not sure whether I am truly attracted females or just femine males.

Hmmm. This is an interesting one.<br /> <br /> I'm a woman. Sure, I've felt awkward with it, seeing as how I've always hung out with the guys. Especially now being a firefighter, it's very rare that I find other women who do what I do. So I find it easier to act more masculine than feminine. But I'm 100% a woman.<br /> <br /> As far as my sexuality goes, I'm straight I guess, but comfortable enough to have relations with a girl to a certain point. I really questioned my sexuality, though, after a "truth or dare" situation which had me kiss my female friend. It sent off a spark, and it made me question everything. I looked at her like I looked at guys, I wanted her in multiple ways. I ended up falling madly in love with her. I could never figure it out, because I had never had these feelings before towards another female. That was a few years ago, and I still love her, but I've pushed it away, as she's straight and I KNOW it would ruin the friendship if I ever mentioned it to her. But I never had those feelings for anyone else. I still can't figure it out.<br /> <br /> I think sexuality is something you just figure out along the way. We as humans get so worked up in trying to figure out what to label ourselves, that we really miss out on what love is - It's a relationship between two people who care deeply for each other.<br /> <br /> I know this probably didn't help at all, but tell your friend I wish him luck in his journey ^^

Told him Nate, about what you said and he said thanks. He's been wondering for a while what he would be considered since many people ask him. And although I'm in a GSA, I have no idea myself XD<br /> <br /> After thinking about it and rereading, I might be consdiered asexual as well...but I'm not sure :P

I've never dated anyone, I'm Asexual. (odds are you haven't even heard of that orientation before now.) For a long time, I didn't know what to label myself as.(Anyone else here Asexual?

Also, that could be termed asexual, Al. I totally didn't catch that question. It doesn't mean you have absolutely no attraction or interest in sex; it just means it's not a high priority on your list, to the extent that many asexuals have very little <i>need</i> for sex in reality.<br /> But it's a pretty broad label. x:

I guess if we're covering gender identity in this discussion...FtM transgender, although I'm just now starting to really figure that out and come to terms with what it means. I've had no surgery, and I don't plan to have anything done below the belt because, frankly, the surgical options available are...not ideal. :/ Top surgery and T are...works in progress. For now, I bind and mostly wear men's clothing.<br /> Like Geist, I never really felt comfortable in my own body, but didn't understand why. (Actually, it helps explain my serious phobia of mirrors, to some extent.) Long story short, one of my friends came out as trans, and it prompted me to do a lot of reading and research...and I'm still confused, but at least I have a direction to explore.<br /> <br /> Sexuality-wise, I'm honestly mostly asexual. I am attracted almost exclusively to intelligence and personality. Certain physical traits are more attractive to me than others, I guess, but mostly I like smart folks. It always sounds somewhat snooty, so I don't like discussing it all that much, but my ideal romantic evening is a rousing political debate over dinner, so...I guess I'm the odd one out, there.
