Is it normal that im not attracted to men but im not lesbian?

I am not attracted to men nor women. I thought i was lesbian, but i was wrong. People made fun of me because they accused me of being a lesbian so i faked feelings for a guy. Then they tried to hook me up with him. Is it normal to not be attracted to either gender?

    Maybe you're an asexual person?

    Maybe you just haven't met the right person.

    • That's not how it works lol.

      I knew a girl I couldn't stand, but that didn't change the fact that I found her attractive lol.

      You can't choose attraction based on what kind of person they are. You can settle for someone based on it, but nothing else.

      It lives down there, and it doesn't care.

        Maybe this person is pansexual. For me, If I can't stand someones personality, the attraction is non-existent.

        • Because Physical and emotional attraction are seperate. Emotional attraction isn't linked to your sexual orientation, as every person is emotionally different. If it was they'd have to create a new term for every single person on earth.

          But when we're talking about lesbian/straight/bi it's physical, and as such, not a choice. We can choose the kind of personality we like in people based on our beliefs, but we can't control the physical urge to mate. I couldn't stand this womans attitude, but I certainly wanted to have sex with her due to her physical beauty and my being heterosexual.

    Perhaps you have not found the right man. These type of emotions are based on more then just sexual attraction to ones body. In fact two people can love each other and hate each others bodies. Sexuality is pushed a lot in modern society. It just means you do not look at people like objects. Looking at someone and saying "That a nice piece of ass or nice piece of breasts is objectifying" and this goes for both genders. If a girl sees a guy and says "He has a cute ass I want to fuck him" she just made him an object and people are more then objects. They have feelings. So yeah you are normal. Do not let an overly sexualized society make you feel bad. Besides those same people are probobly having babies at 12 anyways... So tell the stupid little fucks to get off your case. Everyone grows at a different pace and not everyone is exactly the same.

    Totally normal. Especially if you are under 20, or even in your 20s. I was exactly the same way, then I became attracted to guys later on. Not everybody has to be sexually awoken early on in life.

    Don't fret, maybe you're asexual. That doesn't mean you can't have relationships, it just means you don't develop sexual attractions.
    I have an asexual friend and she has a partner who she has sex with.
    There are all kinds if different layers and types of asexuality. Maybe google it and see if it rings true?

      Interesting but how is she still asexual if she has sex with a partner?

        Sexuality refers to who/what a person is attracted to, not what they do and who they do it with.

          But how can a person have sexual relations with someone if their not attracted to them!

            Well it is possible. Men do it with women quite frequently tbh. In fact, heterosexual men do it with men. Sometimes actual attraction plays little or no part in sex.

            I imagine in this case that the person is in love with their partner and wants to express that love as well as please their partner and keep them satisfied.

              I think in that case she's aromantic but not asexual.

              I guess if you say so. But I don't wanna be intimate with someone to whom I feel no attraction. I can dearly love a person I'm not attracted to as a friend but I don't care to show it with anything more than a hug. I've never been in love with someone I wasn't attracted to as well.

    Most people have somebody they are at least attracted too...unless the number of people they meet is really small and isolated

  • Personally, I am not that sexually attracted to people, however I still find people physically attractive.

    Some people are just late in this thing, though.

    Same here, although there is the occasional guy i like. Not often though. I did have a crush on a girl once, so i thought that meant i was a lezzie, apparently not :/

  • You are asexual. I think you are lucky to be like that. As a matter of fact, i wish i could be asexual too, so i wouldn't be distracted by sex and be so horny all the time, and it would be easier to concentrate on studies and reading, keeping my mind busy with intellectual activities.
