Noticing girlies more and more

Agreed, I experienced the same thing. Before I accepted who I am, I avoided looking at guys. Now I notice them more. A lot more...

 

I agree with you entirely! Ever since I admitted that I kind of liked other women, I'm always noticing when I find someone attractive! Not in a pervy way, but in an appreciative way. And it's completely natural. Before this, I hadn't really noticed anyone, and always found it strange when my female friends would start talking about some guy they had noticed, because I never noticed him!

But yes, definately, I notice other women a lot more now that I'm out to myself!

 

Yep definatly know what you mean, now that i have admitted it to myself i notice girls a lot more. But now my mum knows so i find it weird when i do notice them! So i do but i try not to as i feel super conscious of it.

 

Yeah!! These days I'm like, 'Wow she's really fit!!!'

 

I definately notice them more. Now when a cute girl walks by, I'm like 'damn...she's cute.' ... In my head of course. XD
Apparently I can be quite obvious sometimes, because my mom always laughs at me when I do it. XD
But yeah, since I accepted myself I can admit when I find a girl really attractive.

 

I guess it's because I used to tell myself "No, your not staring at her perfectly formed, twitching, round, perky buttocks." And just used to deny when I did notice, then when I finally said to myself, "Okay, you can look at girls, because you actually DO like 'em, despite your many protests... idiot", I sort of... noticed that I was noticing.

Did I make any sense there?

 

Yeah, I noticed pretty much exactly the same thing when I first admitted to myself that I wasn't straight. It felt kinda liberating actually to be able to say to myself "It's ok to look at them and think they're hot, you don't have to think of it as just looking at the clothes...".

 

I'm not going to write anything because that describes me perfectly as well!

 

same with me but they are usually straight

 

Same thing here. I've always been able to think other guys are good-looking, but not in that hot'n'sexy-way. A hot afternoon on a sunny beach filled with sexy people. It's better than heroine! Not that I've ever tried heroine, but my point remains clear. If I ever had one, that is.

 

I think that it is healthy to be able to appreciate the beauty of both sexes, regardless of whether you are gay, straight or bi. There is something liberating about accepting that you can find either a man or woman attractive without having to fear your sexual orientation. I am sexually attracted to men, however, I often find myself thinking... "is that woman ever attractive."

One of my greatest hopes is that someday inner beauty will become more important than outward appearance. I don't mean this in a holier-than-thou way, I include myself in that hope.

yeah, the hormones probably *do* play a little part, but I think it is more that once you let yourself look and don't feel guilty or confused about it you *let* yourself notice more. I'm in the same boat, enjoy it! Enjoy the half glances and enjoy being ok with who you are!

 

Yeah, definately something I noticed.

Before, if I ever thought "That guy is hot", I'd say to myself "What the hell is wrong with you?!?". Now its just natural to think that when I see a cute guy

Also, right after I came out to my parents, if I was watching TV and there was a really hot guy or if I noticed that I was being too obvious when I saw a cute guy when we were out somewhere, I would feel really awkward. I guess wasn't comfortable with them knowing what I was thinking.....but I've gotten used to it, so it isn't a big deal anymore.

 

Ahh I've so been there. I remember in ninth grade english class I used to stare at this girls chest and nothing has ever made me feel more perverted in my life. At that point I still had no clue I was gay >.>

 

Yeah, I feel so much less weird for me noticing a girl's chest (i'm a boob fan). Well, I still feel a little weird, but not in the "i'm straight, why do I keep noticing this girl's boobs?" kind of way. Now it's more of a "ok, i'm attracted to girls and this girl has a great rack" kind of way. But I have recently been more able to notice attractive girls, and it feels nice.

 

Yup. When I was younger (like 14 lol) I was closeted even to myself, and I didn't really look at guys other than some select ones who really turned me on... Now I basically check out every guy 17-25 who is near me... (the hot ones get more checkout time, obviously)

 

Yep, I catch myself looking at some of my friends in a different light, and actually checking them out. Then I chuckle, because they don't know.

 

I'm checking out girls all the time now. Especially in my classes, which are like 80% girls because I'm an education major. I wish I had gaydar.

 

That goes for me too.I am always checking out girls in my classes and I think that gaydar would be very helpful to me so I don't make a fool of myself in front of them.
