The nature of sexuality has been debated by countless people, including health care providers, scientists, psychologists, and religious organizations. The sure thing is that no one should be ashamed of who they love and who they are! There is nothing wrong about loving people of the same gender as you, or vacillating between being attracted to two genders, or more! You might be having doubts about your feelings. So why is it still so difficult to come out of the proverbial closet? People who don’t belong in the LGBTQIA+ community might sometimes be grumpy about all of these new labels that keep sprouting up at all times, however, it is more important to be able to find something that describes how you feel about yourself than caring what other people think. You could indeed be gay or straight, however, sexuality is not binary, and it is not always rigid either! You could be bisexual, asexual, or perhaps be attracted to all genders! Not only teenagers can discover that they’re not as straight as they thought they might be.
There have been massive changes in our society and understanding of sexuality in the past decade alone, that it’s natural for people to begin question their sexuality. A lot of people have undoubtedly thought of that question at some point in their lives, whether that was because of actual attraction or something society considered ‘gay’.
