    I'm 29. I thought I was straight growing up, then accepted I was bisexual when in early twenties. Now I think I am gay and have been slowly accepting it, but I have to say porn confuses the hell out of me.

    I am not attracted to females in person, much more prefer males. However when I'm curious I watch straight porn or lesbian and get turned on by it. Its very confusing, as I am starting to accept my sexuality but the porn makes me think that I'm going back to bisexual (which for me means being "straight" and only interested in girls and not doing anything about my male interest).

    I have had one nights stands in the past with both sexes, the last few times with women were not good. I'm a sort of black and white person, that's why this is so confusing and hurts me. I want to come out as gay and tell my family but this porn is stopping me doing so.

    It's possible I could be gay with a very slight interest in females, and I guess I could come out as gay and not go there with women as I am not interested in getting in a relationship with a women.

    What are your thoughts? Any appreciated thanks.

    I can relate to this a lot. Straight and lesbian porn turns me on. However I would never want to date a female. I identify as homoflexible, around the Kinsey 5 mark. The definition of homoflexible is predominately homosexual but with minimal heterosexual feelings. I hope you found this helpful.

    Yes this makes sense as a scale rather than 100% one or another. I'm rarely attracted to females and much prefer males, but it is there. Thanks for that.
