  • It is perfectly normal and you shouldn't feel the need to question that. My brother is gay but he never chose to be that way, it caused him a lot of grief and personal problems because he couldn't accept who he was.

    But now he knows that there's no changing it and has accepted himself.

    I also have a lot of gay friends and they are totally normal too, sexuality is subjective and you shouldn't worry about it. :D

    You are who you are. You love whom you love. You're not hurting anyone, so don't worry.

    It is normal. I'm gay. But not one of those out there ones. Yes you will get detractors and the ones saying no no no. But they are the utter dumbasses that don't wake up and see they don't have to look far to see another gay person in the house.
    Ignore them for now. They are the ones who like to say everything under the sun that its wrong, but are at a loss when you ask them :
    how do you make me straight again, if I ever was straight in the first place?
    you tell me how I became attracted to people of the same sex?
    How is it that there are millions of people who are gay all around the world - all colours, races, ages etc... that maintain being gay and who all face the adversity of being gay - why would they choose to go through that adversity? Is it a choice, or who they naturally are?
    Why are some people bi?
    Sexuality is so adverse.Give your detractors something to thing about.
    But don't fight being gay. It won't work.

    It is completely normal and there is nothing you can do to change it, your sexuality is like your skin color.
    Unfortunately there will also be people who tell you different, don't listen to them.
    A nice way of being sure that they are the ones in the wrong, and that's it's definitely not anything wrong with you is:
    You can't change your sexuality.
    They could change their beliefs.

    YES IT IS NORMAL!!!! No one is perfect physically, emotionally, mentally, etc. but if you feel complete and it makes you happy then you will be viewed as perfect to someone and very normal! dont let society fool you on what is normal and what is not...we can not truly define the term normal. as long as you are safe and not hurting yourself or anyone else you are in deed normal...embrace who u are and love it! like you said you didnt chose it...

    -coming from a straight girl hence not being bias at all

    Its normal to be a lesbian (only if your hot) but its definitely not normal to be a gay guy. Men should never be attracted to other men. Sorry...wish I could tell ya otherwise.

    It's normal, you are who you are. You can hide it, you can not accept it, but it'll either come out in the end or you will end up living a pretty sad life.

    Its not normal god gave girls a vagina and men a penis for a reason, you should seriously consider counseling, im not religious at all so dont think im saying this to ‘keep your soul clean’ or watever :P but seriously try something take advice from people ect.

    That is something that is still debated so I do not think we can really awnser as poeple all have a diffrent opinion as why it happens or why it exsists . No I am not saying gays are all bad I am just saying since there is still such a large debate as to why it exsists no one can say how normal it is . However most poeple would think it is abnormal I will not say either way . I will just say no one gay or strieght should be judged for it.

    sometimes we discover early that our sexual preferences don't meet the norm of the public; however if you feel comfortable in a gay relationship then you are doing what is normal for you.
    I prefer a gay relationship as it is very natural for me.

    People who say that it's not normal to be gay or it's somehow wrong have no clue what they're talking about. If someone doesn't accept you, then they aren't someone you should be wasting your time with. Your born gay, but sometimes it can take a while to figure it out.

    I'm gay. I wish we knew why people are gay. It would resolve a lot of confusion. Until then; have fun, enjoy life and try to avoid the people who think otherwise

    It's okay to be gay but it's not normal. It is true that god gave women vaginas and men a penis for a reason. Being gay is a social obstacle best cured by compassion and understanding. Don't be ashamed of being different, it's okay.

    Yes it's normal and it's a choice. We all live with the paths we take and society chooses how to judge us by our choices

    Society is fucked. Of course it's normal. Homosexuality hand bisexuality as been around as long as heterosexuality has been. Why we make such a huge deal about it today is just retarded -__-u

    Its totally normal. Just because there are more straight people than gay/lesbian people doesn't mean its not normal. Some people will say no. But don't believe them. It's probably because they are insecure.

    Very normal, I read somewhere the 1 in 10 people born are gay, so out of 6 billion people, you can just imagine the percent of people who can relate to this. There is nothing wrong with it at all, I think you're brave to come out and say this, my best friend is gay and is the most wonderful person you'd ever meet. Sexuality doesn't go hand in hand with character, I worry about you for holding this in and hope you don't let people get to you, people can be stupid sometimes and are probably jealous they don't have the courage to say what you just told us.
