    Do you ever feel guilt from your orientation or gender identity ?

    It happens often to me, yet I don't even know why...

    No. I used to get bouts of shame though. I don't anymore, happily.

    No, there isn't any reason to feel guilt.

    Yes. Because upbringing can fuck with you, and cognitive dissonance is a bitch. It's been getting better, but I still have bad days.

    I don't feel guilt. I didn't choose to be this way, and my orientation is not a burden to anyone, so why feel guilty?

    No, I'm not sure why I would either. Even the most religious people I know have been accepting, there's only one person who I know isn't but she's strict to everything religious so not really personal.

    Kind of- I feel pretty useless because of it sometimes. I used to feel incredibly guilty about it due to my upbringing but these days I'm not overly bothered by it- I do sometimes feel like my life is pretty expendable because of it- but not usually. I'm working on it.

    I guess it took longer for my subconscious to accept it then it did for the rest of my mind, as I used to get really bad stomach aches at even the mention of the words "gay" and "rainbow"(pathetic I know) but these days I don't get that anymore.

    I feel guilt occasionally.. but never regarding my sexual orientation. I'm pretty content with that.

    No, because guilt would imply I've done someone wrong, which of course I haven't.

    Happy days :slight_smile:

    Never with my sexuality. I am who I am, I can't change and there's nothing wrong that :slight_smile: I

    Nope - guilt isn't something I do much of on general principles and never about my orientation.

    yep upbringing fucked me up and especially since I'm bi I feel like I am more at fault like I can just date the opposite sex, but I don't want to change myself and it isn't a choice to be this way.
