Dude...you are too young ( in my humble opinon) to be coming on line and asking stuff about your sexuality.

Hi! When I was your age and beginning puberty I also wondered if I was gay or straight. My nipples got very swollen and sore and I was afraid I was turning into a girl! Nope! Perfectly normal for boys at the beginning of puberty. I had a special boy friend that I liked very, very much and I worried I was gay. Nope! It's perfectly normal for boys to form emotional attachments with each other. Just because I liked Bobby and Bobby liked me didn't mean we were gay. Then I started having erections (boners, hard-on's) at all sorts of horrible and embarrassing times. This really scared me because I couldn't do anything to stop them. I was certain I was gay. Nope! Having sudden spontaneous erections only meant that I was beginning to become a man. It's all just part of a perfectly normal process. I kept worrying that I was gay and finely convinced myself that because I was so worried about it, it must be a sign that I was gay. Nope! Worrying that you might be gay is a perfectly normal part of growing up.
So, little brother, there's nothing wrong with you. What you're feeling is a perfectly normal part of growing up. You may be gay and you may be straight, but it really is too soon to tell. You're just not finished going through all the changes that puberty does to a guy. My advice is to not worry about it and just let yourself experience the process. Gay or straight, one thing is certain -- you're on your way to becoming a man.
By the way, after all that worry about being gay, I did grow up to be straight.................

You can't change your sexual orientation. Whether you are gay, straight, or bisexual, you are that way from birth. It isn't a disease. It is perfectly natural.
You are still very young. Early puberty can carry a lot of confusion about sexual orientation. Hormones do strange things to your emotions. That doesn't mean, however, that it must just be a "phase". I was attracted to women when I was about your age, but I didn't know how to deal with it so I sort of sweeped it under the rug. It wasn't until I was about 16 that I realized that I was bisexual.
Don't worry so much about giving your sexuality labels. Just be what you are.

If you get turned on by girls and not guys, you are not gay. So what if people stereotype you and think you might be gay based on your appearance or things you do. I know some very effiminate guys that are completely straight; you can't tell someone is gay generally but just judging them on rheir appearance.
Too many people judge others by their looks, if your parents think you are gay, too bad for them! Have they said this? If so, they are really not very good, supportive parents.

firt of all there are no 'symtpoms' of being gay. plus your about to or already going through puberty, it's natural to devolope a natural liking to the same sex. it's like a crush, only you grow out of it cuz ur not really attracted to them. unless ur gay, which is probably not a factor in this (unless u figure that out later in life) but ur not really sure about ur sexuality. ur just a kid u shouldn't really be even worrying about that yet. try to have fun while ur still young...

being sexually attracted to the same sex
That's it. Don't force yourself to be labled. No matter what your behaviour is if you don't have that then you're straight. You're too young to find out so quit worrying aobut and focus on the thousands of other worries kids your age have. You'll find out one way or the other, but it will be that fact that decides it, no colour preference, haircut or favourite music will decide it.

It's simple.
If you're male and are attracted to males only then you're gay.
If you're male and are attracted to females only then you're straight.
If you're attracted to both then you're bisexual.
but wait till you're a bit older to fully decide who you're attracted to. Sometimes things change as people get older, sometimes it doesn't. Just go with the flow and be who you are, whatever you are.

If you are attracted to the same sex and have no attraction to the opposite sex you are probably gay.
