Something interesting I read

[girlie219]

I was reading the 'Metro' (a free paper you get on UK public transport) the other day and I was surprised to read that although a small proportion of the adult population has actually engaged in homosexual activity during their lives, around 90% of us have questioned whether we are gay or not.

 

Does anyone else find this surprisingly high? I am a female and I would consider myself to be straight but I definitely have questioned my sexuality. Its kind of a relief lol!

 

Any opinions?

Wow, thats high! Believeable, though.

I too have questioned my sexuality, but have settled for 'straight but consider certain girls hott'. Yes, its my own little sexuality. Mildly bi, perhaps?

LOL that is high...

 

I know that women are more prone to do this than men though.

I always knew I was gay because I tried so hard NOT to be gay...So I finally came to the conclusion that I was.

 

Alot of people won't admit it, but sexuality is a total gradient.

I still see women that I think are totally hot. But I am far more attracted to my gender.

I would say it's the opposite. I think almost all men ask themselves this. Alot of women, however, don't feel the need to define themselves that way. To alot of straight man, being gay is their worst fear (especially the homophobes). I think they are the ones who spend the most time wondering.

Was there research to back this up?

[girlie219]

Yes there was research to back it up but it was just a random column I read in a newspaper. I also read that men are more likely than women to have a homosexual experience. Can't remember the exact figures but I think it was about 13% for females and 25% for males.
