    So I think I'm a lesbian because I prefer women over men, BUT I'm not disgusted by the idea of dating a guy or having sex with a guy... Just indifferent, like no feeling either way. Does that still make me a lesbian? Or bi? Could it just be the fact that I'm just coming to terms with my sexuality and I'm culturally used to being meant to like guys?

    It's a misconception that every gay/lesbian person has to be repulsed by the opposite sex.

    I, myself, don't feel disgusted by the idea of having sex with a guy either and I think this has to do with the fact that I used to think about it back when I thought I was straight (or at least bisexual), so I'm kind of desensitized to it but still definitely indifferent.

    As long as you're not attracted to men but to women you are still a lesbian, whether you're indifferent or repulsed by the idea of having sex with men.

    Thanks for your reply! Another thing though: sometimes I think I *might* be attracted to men, like I find some guys cute, just much less than women... I still consider myself a lesbian though...

    Me too. I can definitely tell if a guy is good-looking but it ends there. I do not want any relationship other than friendship. I like having guy friends:slight_smile:

    Yep I feel the same ways as the individuals above. Acknowledging that girls are pretty doesn't make me any less gay. I have neither sexual interest nor romantic interest in girls.
