Is that being homosexual? Or is being homosexual being gay?
I think to be considered gay, you have to actually love someone of the same gender, right?...

If you are having sex with members of your same gender, but do not recognize yourself as gay, then you are bisexual or homosexual. . But you are not gay.
Homosexuality is a biological state. it is part of your behavioural imperative and you do not have a choice in the matter.
Being gay, on the other hand, is a sociological state. it means you accept your sexuality and embrace it in your life, and have no shame or guilt about who you are. You live your live according to your real needs and not those society imposes on you.
So as you see, many people live a "straight acting" lifestyle. .they are homosexual or bisexual, but they are not gay as being gay is indeed a choice and a lifestyle. Being homosexual is not a choice.

Gay and homosexual are the same thing.
Being sexually attracted to the same gender is gay. And homosexual.
You do know homosexual includes lesbians, too, right?
Doesnt really cover bisexuals, though. Although they ARE attracted to the same gender. Sometimes.
Long explanation short-- If you like to sleep with someone of the same gender as yourself, you are gay. (or bisexual) Not straight. K?

Gay is a slang term for homosexual and yes if you prefer to sleep with someone the same sex you are gay. Think about all the people that just sleep around who sleep with the opposite sex, they don't love these people so does that mean they are not straight?

You are a morose homosexual. Having sex with the same gender pretty much defines homosexuality. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

bi - curious?
You CAN have sex with somebody of the same gender without being gay... Being gay means that you are attracted to the same sex.

Bisexual, probably. Or exploitative, if you are distinguishing "having sex" from love.
The terms "homosexual" and "gay" are equivalent for practical purposes. Homosexual is the clinical term; gay is the folksy way to say it which is not offensive, the way most prior folksy ways to say it were.

Maybe bisexual. If you have sex with both genders or date both genders. If you have sex with the same sex only then it's gay.

You're either straight, bi-sexual or gay. Don't play around with words. If you are only sexually attracted to the opposite sex, you are 'straight.' If you are into both, you are 'bi.' And if you only want to do people of the same sex you are 'gay.' It's really pretty simple.
