If you are only sexually aroused by thinking about or looking at women, you are straight
If you are only sexually aroused by thinking about or looking at men, you are gay
If you are aroused by both you are bi.
In any case, you are you -- be happy with that and believe in yourself -- always.
Dwell in love.

Generally, you cannot tell whether someone is attracted to the same sex or the opposite sex by the way they look or act. If a girl likes playing sports, or if a guy doesn't like sports, that doesn't mean they're gay. A guy who lisps or who is limp-wristed may or may not be attracted to the same sex -- you can't tell by looking at his mannerisms.
Occasionally, you can tell that someone is gay, if that person wants it known. For example, some gay and lesbian people wear articles of clothing, symbols or accessories to indicate that they're gay.
Don't worry. Some confusion about sexual feelings is normal, particularly in the early teen years when one is going through all the changes of puberty. A survey of 34,000 students in Minnesota found that 25% of students age 12 said they were "not sure" about their sexual orientation. By age 17, only 5% of the students were still "unsure". Almost all of the rest of those who had been unsure at age 12, now felt they were heterosexual.
Let's face it. Puberty can be a confusing time. Your body is changing and your hormones are changing. It is normal to have questions like "How does what's happening with my body compare with what's happening with the other guys?" "Is this happening too fast or too slow?" "I have all these new and strange feelings...."
It makes sense that you might feel confused as your body begins to develop sexually. It's a big change to go from thinking the girls are weird to being attracted to them! As well, it is normal to be easily aroused in your teen years. Whether you're in class, in a theatre or in the locker room, a sexual situation or not, you could get an erection. While certain situations are more embarrassing than others (as if that needed saying), they don't mean anything. You just have to get used to it.
So, if you are a younger teen, don't worry about it. Do not rush to label your feelings. Take some time. Remember, a little confusion about sexual feelings is normal. Things will become clearer as you get older. If there are specific concerns you have, some of the other questions and answers listed here might be helpful.
Besides if ur gay its ok..its a natural thing according to recent studies.

You forget about caring what you are and you enjoy yourself. There's nothing in a label.
If you're adolescent (and I suspect you are) then enjoy the view. Once your hormones have settled, you might find that there is no crisis to fret about.
If you're in college, try it out. At least that way you'll know what does it for you.

i agree with savage_green-eyez and jasoninvividcolor. they both had great advice. it's okay if you don't know. some people don't like labels. you like who you like. if you look for the same qualities in a man as in a woman that's great. at least you're consistant. there's nothing wrong with loving both sexes or only one or none. do what you want to do. good luck.

Well, if you're attracted to men, but you also feel yourself attracted to women, then you are probably bisexual. In that case, I would suggest getting some from both genders.

Do nothing. Do everthing. Just whatever you do, don't worry about what to call it. Not everyone can be comfortable with the label of "bisexual," regardless of their sexual history. You get to label yourself, not other people, and until you pick one, don't sweat it.

First, have sex a girl. Then, have sex with a guy. Then have sex with some more girls. And then, have sex with some more guys. You should know by then if you're bi or not. If you dont, then you're really confused.
