Answer 1

The problem comes because so many people like to hang labels on everyone. You must be defined by your sexuality, your skin colour, your origins etc. No-one is allowed to be just human any more.

Many people are attracted to the same sex and many people have sexual experiences with the same sex without needing to be labelled "gay" or "bi". Once you have come to terms with your sexuality and know where you stand, you can then label yourself if you feel you need a label. Young people experimenting with sex don't need labels but because there is peer pressure to label everyone, they feel they must have a label so they say they think they might be gay.

People are sexual beings and can be attracted to either sex. This does not make them gay, straight or bi, it makes them human. Don't hang a label on yourself until you have a need to do so and no-one has the right to hang a label on anyone else.

Answer 2

I lost my shame of being gay when I come out to myself. I realized that God made me gay for a reason and there is nothing to be shameful of.
