    I try watching gay porn and pictures of penises and all that but I can't get an erection....if I watch women I do get an erection very easily.


    Tdy I tried to get of to the thought of a gay act by forcing my penis to become erect, and I did get go but it didn't feel good, I felt bad and it wasn't a strong orgasm.

    Now do you think I'm gay? Would a straight guy be able to do what I just did? And I can't find anything about a guy attractive, I try to see something but i don't, is this normal for gay guys? Or can my fear of being gay hold my erection back? I'm rly confused.

    Sounds to me like your straight. Porn is never a good indicator. Try using only your imagination during "Solo's", and that will be a good indicator of what you really are attracted to. If you have to force yourself to like guys, then your not into them. Just know that you don't need a label, be you, and go by what you truly feel and you will never go wrong. Good luck!

    What about pictures? Won't they give a good indication?

    Well your right, they are, but it sounds like he had a bad time after forcing himself to like it.

    Why you force yourself to like gay stuff when you really don't ? Then you get confused about it . You sound absolutely straight to me . So just quit watching gay stuff for nothing . It's just time-consuming and doesn't make any sense to be honest . T_T

    If you can't find anything attractive about a guy, you sound pretty straight. When you're in public, are you checking out guys, girls, or both? When you fantasize, do they involve guys, girls, or both?

    I think I have hocd, I'm constantly trying to either prove I'm straight I not getting a erection from guys....

    When I fantasize it's about a girl, but when I try to prove I'm not gay I'll think about a guy, I won't get an erection but I feel something ( and then anxiety kicks in)....so idk if in reality I would be straight....

    Yeah, I'll also say there's nothing there that suggests you're not straight. Porn isn't a very reliable indicator at the best of times, but if you're viewing lots of it yet none of it is arousing that very much suggests you don't dig men. Also your fantasies are about girls near enough all the time, so... I'd have thought that if you had a natural attraction to guys the gay porn would have triggered some more gay fantasies or that they'd have developed spontaneously. But they haven't, so it doesn't look like you're discovering something new about yourself. When you say you feel something when thinking about a guy, what kind of feeling is that?

    An alternative idea- do you think you're attracted to the idea of submission and that's what really turns you on under the guise of gay stuff?

    ^

    I find this very interesting...

    are you experimenting to figure out your sexuality or are you trying to prove to yourself whether you are or aren't gay?

    Thanks for the response, when I feel something I'm not sure if it's anxiety or I'm forcing myself to feel something because I keep paying attention to if I'm feeling something....it's really weird, for example if I make eye contact with a guy nothing happens as soon as I think the same guy is gay bam crazy fear insights, and the thought that my heart is racing makes me think I'm gay... (Btw I forced myself to make eye contact to c if anything happens, and I feel this anxiety with anyone I think is gay)....and the idea do submission really turns me on, but with gay guys I never get an erection no matter how much I think about it, and as soon as I think I might be getting something crazy anxiety insights again....I have no idea what to think, but when I think about a girl it's so natural and comfortable, and big breasts will have me aroused in a matter of seconds....

    I'm trying to prove if I'm gay or not, and it's become an obsession I'm constantly trying to figure this out....I have a very very obsessive personality....

    What even made you go down this path in the first place? Why are you trying to prove that you aren't gay?

    I used to grind with girls and get boners, my friends told me girls didn't like it so I jerked of before hand the other time I went and I didn't get a boner, then I found out girls liked it so the time after that I didn't get a boner and I thought I was gay because I didn't, but now I realized I was constantly stressed that I might not get a boner and was a little intimidated by the girl.

    Also after I thought that I might be gay my mind got stuck on the thought, so I did research and found out about latent homosexuality n all that, after extensive research I found I was more and more lost.

    But I am actually thankful for what I just went through because now I understand how complex human sexuality is, and i think I understand gay people more now and think they are very strong to handle societies pressures.
