I confirmed that my interests were more than just a kink when certain women gave me butterflies when they said hi to me in high school! That’s when I was like, ‘Okay, yep, maybe I’m not straight.’” -Grace, 21Ģ. "I always felt like I was a little more open to exploring than all of my other friends." “For now, I’ve currently settled on not having a label, but I like using ‘queer’ because I feel like all that really is is ‘not straight’ without trying to define what ‘not straight’ means. I came to that conclusion over quarantine, as a lot of people did, just because I was spending so much time alone thinking, but I had been questioning for a long time. I always felt like I was a little more open to exploring than all of my other friends and always sort of wondered what being with a woman would be like. Looking back after coming to the conclusion that I was ‘not straight,’ I recognized little bits of my childhood that sort of made more sense. "If my subconscious is trying to tell me this." Like once I was talking to my parents as a kid and said something like: ‘If people like each other for their personalities, then doesn’t it make more sense to like boys and girls?’” -Sarah, 19 3. “Honestly I thought that maybe I was but what solidified it was having dreams about girls, which started in high school. "The first time I orgasmed was with a girl." Eventually, I was like, ‘Okay, mhmm! This is definitely something if my subconscious is trying to tell me this.’ Then, after taking some time and exploring it more, I realized that, yes, I am in fact bi.” -Maddie, 23 4. “I went to an all-girls Catholic high school, which wasn’t the best place for me to get to know my sexuality. However, I realized I was gay when I had girl crushes on my soccer team. I was attracted to their personalities as well as their looks. Being physically with a girl for the first time really was an epiphany. I was emotionally connected to women, something I never felt with the countless men I had been with. "I found one of my classmates attractive and I wanted to kiss her." And the first time I orgasmed was with a girl.” -Julia, 22 5.
“When I was 16 and in an all-girls boarding school, II found one of my classmates attractive and wanted to kiss her. That’s when I knew I wasn’t straight and had feelings for different people, not just men. Now, I find myself attracted to charm and personality, and not just the genitals.
"I thought it was just a ‘different’ type of friendship." I do like more assertive personalities who lead, protect, and provide.” -Megumi, 37 6. “Before I became friends with my current girlfriend, I had no idea I was gay-though looking back, a lot of things make more sense now. We knew each other for years before we really hung out and stuff, but as soon as we became close, it became more and more apparent that we liked each other differently than other friends.
