    IMO, people don't "decide" their sexual orientation. People decide whether or not to act on it, whether or not to "come out of the closet", so to speak, but I do not believe one's true sexual orientation is chosen. I'm not talking about casual experimentation, many if not most people have done that. I believe sexual orientation is decided most likely in the womb.

    And to answer the poll, I'm heterosexual and have always known.

    Its weird because, well, i'm only 16, and I go to school and the girls I've known sense whenever, are now suddenly bisexual.
    Not gay, but bisexual. And its hard because do they just think that its a trend? Because most of the girls are not. Do they just do it to get attention from the males? perhaps. But it is very confusing for me. Its weird because, yes, I do have a boyfriend and we have been dating for 5 months now. But sometimes I wonder. I don't know. I can ramble on but its like my mom said when I talked to her about it, people are born with certain cells, more or less, and thats what makes us who we are. I believe that. I think I won't know until I do fall in love.

    Decided? Nah. I've always known I was straight. I dated a girl briefly in high school, knowing that is wasn't really for me but wanting the experience. We had a great time, and we're still friends, although we aren't very good at keeping in touch.

    I still feel that she is a wonderful, intelligent, attractive woman, and whomever she ends up with (male or female) will be very lucky.

    Thank you Wolf_Q!

    My little brother and I were just talking about that. There are alot of girls that are "bi" just for attention. My brother was talking about how he was annoyed because these three girls were totally making out at a party. They were pretty much putting on a show for the boys. Now, if my child wants to be a respectable person (gay or straight), that's fine. But if I found out my child was just sleeping with whoever or whatever for attention, I'd be VERY upset.


    Thank you Wolfie!

    The comments about girls being bi just to follow trends, or to be "cool" may very well be true, but not in my case.

    I've known I was bi since I first started having an attraction to any one. I've always liked girls more than guys and didn't think I liked guys at all for a while. I don't know how to explain it very well though.. I didn't just all of a sudden decide "Hey, I want to be cool, so I'm going to say I'm bi."

    Don't ever let 'em define

    Love yourself, give them Hell.
    You can take on this world.

    My older (and only) brother is gay. I grew up watching him struggle with himself. I know, without a doubt, that I'm straight. If I wasn't it wouldn't have been a big deal in my immediate or extended family because they all love and accept my brother
