were any of you abused when you were children and if you were, do you think that it had an affect on your sexuality?

Nope. I grew up in a very loving household. My parents did not even hit me. We all had respect and maturity for each other.
This sexuality just happened out of the blue. I never thought about it and nor was I exposed to it. I mean I did not even know gay people all through life.
I just at 18 years old felt a deeper love for a girl whom was my best friend. It just happened out of the blue when I realized I had the same type of feelings towards her that people felt towards the opposite sex. We were just very, very close with instant rapport and trust, so I just naturally felt more for her for who she is.
I guess I am just more open minded and see people for who they are inside rather than what they look like on the outside. I mean the body is just a shell. We were nongender, of spirit before we were born, and after we die, we will continue to be of spirit without gender, just an expression of energy.
There are men who are much more feminine than masculine, and there are women who are more mascinine than feminine. I love feminine energy. It's very comfortable to be around that. I just love nurturing, open, loving energies. Right I know that men can have those energies if that is what I seek, so I'm not against men. I just love whoever my heart loves because the heart does not see, just only feels. The heart is blind, so that explains the saying that love is blind.

Nope not here -- but given the fact that around 1/5th of all children are sexually abused according to statistics, over 90% of them by parents -- you are bound to find some, its a fishing expedition.

Yes, I was abused as a child but I do not think it had anything to do with my sexuality do to it happened by both male and a female.

No was not abused, started having attractions to the same sex when I was about 14. And as most people around this age it was well hidden, came out to my parents around the age of 21.

I wasn't. Being gay is something that is hard-wired in the brain. If a person is molested as a child, it does not change their sexual orientation, but it does have a serious effect on trust issues.

Yes I was raped by a gang of teenagers as a 9 year old child and yes it effected my sexuality but no it did not effect my orientation.
