Does the actual act of sex mean anything in terms of sexuality?

    Really a wide range of answers here, but thanks for everyone for contributing their two cents. I really appreciate it!

    The one thing I've made sure of is to tell my gf about all this upfront. Don't want any secrets between us. She's been really great and understanding and loves me very much. I think my anxiety about all this really stems from the fact that she loves me unconditionally; I really don't want to hurt her. My biggest fear is that we get really serious (marriage, kids, etc.), and I find out I'm gay. I'm not going to let that happen, which is why I'm here.

    I think it depends on what the fantasy is. If you're watching porn and getting off to it, that doesn't mean your sexuality matches what you watch. If you're actually imagining having sex with specific genders YOURSELF, I think that's a different case all together....
     
  3. I think it depends on the person and HOW sex effects them. For example, sex, to one person, sex might be more of an emotional thing - However, let's just say a straight girl who is just curious about sex - She could end up having sex with a female to see what it's like, BUT she may not get anything out of it OR perhaps she enjoyed it, but even after it happens, she doesn't think about it anymore and she thinks about men a lot more, as well as not being able to connect on an emotional level with women - That is an example of a woman who is probably straight and sex with a woman did not change that. On the other hand, if the girl really did enjoy the sex and if she continued to think about it and want it to happen again and also, if it brought out some emotional feelings toward women that she may have never knew she had, then in that case may sex be in an indicator that the girl could be bisexual or gay. I should of used an example of a man since you are one, but all in all, I say it depends on the person. Some see sex as really important, while others see the emotional factor more important. I think both are a big factor in sexual orientation though. I hoped I helped a little! Let me know if you want to talk more! :slight_smile:
