    Hello everypony, I'm just dropping by this thread again to tell y'all a little something something. I'm happy to say I'm bicurious, for now. Although I may not want to go into detail how this occured, I'll just say I didn't quite expect it either. I'm not in a relationship with anyone, right now. I guess having a calm, open mind and a soft heart made me come out like this, hehe. I'm still uncertain about if I really am or not. However, I may just be going through a short period of asexuality, but I don't think it's like that. I will say, though, that I will be uncertain of what my true sexuality is until that day comes.

    For now, I'm wishing everypony on here who's in a wonderful relationship to keep going strong, enjoy your Christmas, and have a great time with your lover.

    You have to follow your heart man. Do whatever makes YOU happy, not him.

    Hehe, another one! Jokes aside, its good that you're questioning. Seriously. I think its important for everyone to question things like this, regardless of the final outcome. Thanks, and you have a great Christmas too!

    Hehe, try and stay courageous with this kind of thing- fear can easily lead to tons of setbacks (and no I'm not just saying that to advertise the element of courage :33)~!

    I hope you have a merry Christmas toooo (Pfft, it's 2:20 AM, not technically officially Christmas in everyone's views, ish... >_>)

    And I hope that I find a lover to spend my next one with :D

    This is really true. Don't be afraid to question things like that. I don't like the idea of a 'default' sexuality that we're all in until we decide it's not for us. We're all different, so go find out who you are. Got to be yourself, not who others want you to be, as cliched as that sounds.

    A default isn't necessarily bad. It's just the stigma surrounding leaving it that makes it such a difficulty for anyone to explore the other options. Some people can take the idea and decide they don't like it while others can try it. There shouldn't be shame or embarrassment involved.

    Hay everyone. ^^
    I found this thread just recently and I read quite everything until page 40 or something. Now I feel myself a bit more assertive.
    I'm probably gay and I don't want to be different.

    In February I was coming out by my parents and they accepted it with no problems. I was happy and a bit more self-confident, but something didn't feel right and I wanted to tell it someone different too so that everyone knows it.

    I asked my parents, if I could tell it to someone else. And they don't want that anyone else is knowing it. I understand, that my uncles and aunts shouldn't know it, but I want to tell someone that I know I can trust.

    In my class I was sitting near someone, who was saying, that she would beat a gay person if she met one. And on the other hand there were two girls who don't mind gay people. They were discussing and I was sitting in the middle, I felt myself bad and was discussing with them a bit. Then the bad girl was asking me, if I was gay and I lied. I hate lieing.

    That's my story so far.

    And I want to let you know, that I am still unsure, if I am gay or not. I just wait and see in which gender I will fall in love. Even if I feel myself more gay than straight.
    Thanks for reading it. ._.

    I hate people like that. Really can't believe people out there still have problems with people different then what is called the social norm. Even having a social norm is complete bullcrap. Every person is different why put a barrier up for what's normal and not normal.

    I'm glad that your parents accepted it. Even of you are gay or aren't, you shouldn't have to hide who you are. I say just be yourself, don't label yourself as anything. Just be you, do what feels right to you.

    Don't worry about it, bro. Don't worry about limiting yourself if you're not sure. It's not like a set path you have to choose like a big decision. Just go through life loving and doing whatever else to whatever gender you want. If you find a guy attractive, go for it. If you then find a girl attractive, go for that then. Hey, if you find a bin attractive, be my guest. Don't stress yourself about it. Society is getting better at tolerating things like this. Sooner or later, it will realise that sexuality means nothing other than what you find attractive.

    I'm very happy to hear that your parents accepted you for who you are. I understand your urge to let everyone know, but if what you say about the people around you is true, I don't think that's a good idea for your safety and self-esteem. Just let those know who you know will accept you no matter what (like us!) and be yourself. There should be no shame, but at the same time, there should be a sense of safety present.

    Also, you don't have to lump yourself in with "gay" or "straight", there is much gray area in between. Sexuality is a spectrum that we jump all over at different points in our lives. Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free! YOU ARE A PIRATE!

    I guess you're right. I have to just wait and see and not force me to be.
    I hope that I finally know, what I am. ._.
    I'm 17, but I know that the age doesn't matter. Only the time can tell. ._.

    But I'm happy that this thread exists.
    You are wonderful people and I appreciate your help. ^^
    Thanks. ^^

    This is why I feel it's optional information. It's not a requirement to be friends with someone, only a bonus to understanding and becoming closer. I'm glad your parents accept you, but telling the rest of the world doesn't really matter. It's your friends and family who matter. I think I made the posts after page 40, but I mention that your family is who you choose it to be. Family is not exclusive to blood in the least. My "uncle" isn't blood related, for example. He's my best friend's dad since childhood, but he's always been there for me, even after my parents passed away.

    Two of my uncle's best friends (and one was a former coworker) are openly gay. There's a lot of jokes about them--"Uncle Kirk and Aunt Randy", and they know they're all in good fun. They're really nice people and fun to talk to. They've been married for 25 years, I think. My uncle didn't know Kirk (the 'straight' seeming one) was gay until he told him. My uncle didn't care, though.

    Sorry if I didn't clear that up. I wouldn't tell my uncles and aunts.

    Oh, how I do wish there still was a rep system.
    I've not the words to speak my mind on the matter.
    Or more aptly, voice my agreement.

    That aside,
    I still think Lupr hit the metaphorical nail on the head with Luprsexuality.

    All of that aside,
    The world has but one constant,
    And that is the lack of other constants.

    Welcome! We had a gender thread, as well, but I'm not sure it's not fallen off the planet at this point.

    You'll fit in everywhere Chaos.
    Love and tolerance after all.

    @ResidualChaos

    Threads come,
    Threads go,
    Threads return.
    Unless the thread is sticky,
    It's bound to fall onto a different page eventually.
    But they come back.

    @BiohazardJonny

    Well played.
    Very well played.
