Okay...I have a question

[thenewageriseth]

Um, if I find anyone of the same sex rather attractive, but not stimulating (Like, say I think they're pretty cool looking, or rather attractive, or I have a tendency to stare whenever they narrow their eyes, cuz I have a thing with narrowed eyes...they look exotic) what does it mean?

 

[KTskater]

I'm not sure. Are you attracted to the opposet sex at all? If so, I think it's just a healthy admaraion of the same sex.
If you don't find them sexually arousing or anything I don't think you are gay at all.

i don't think there is to much to worry about.

If you think someone looks good, that is not bad. If you lust after that for most reasons, that is not good.

It depends upon the attraction level, you might not be sexual excited, but you could think, I would date him or I think he`s cute. Saying the opposite sex looks good isn`t a homosexual thought, just guys don`t say it as much as girls because of us being all macho and stuff. The best thing to do is ask yourself why you think that and see for yourself if you have a problem. If you do, pray. Pray will unleash you of any problems you have if you truely believe in the power of prayer.

Relax. You will be aware of what counts as attractive i.e. the cultural stereotype. That can function for girls as well as guys quite naturally, and it need not have any sexual implications at all.

It is fine to look at at anything beautiful - scenery, art, food, cars, people. There is no need to get hung about about the last category.

It was a cousin that I found attractive...some time ago...it's like it comes and goes...The other day, she came home from work in black and I realized she had lipstick on, and then I had to ask her something and she was leaning against a counter top and she stared at me (with narrowed eyes)while answering the question and I started to get butterflies and stuff...started to say "um..." a lot, it was weird. I like it when she narrows her eyes and smiles...

I don't think you have anything to worry about, i was just talking to a friend of mine about this earlier. God made us in his image and admiring God's work isn't wrong. As long as you are not "stimulated" by this, or desiring a sexual relationship with this person or persons i don't think you have anything to worry about.

 

[kingzjewel]

umm if you are getting all flustered around your cousin i think you need to watch out. being attracted to a person or thinking that they are nice looking isnt a problem, but when you get butterflies and nervousness while looking at your cousin it will become a problem.... trust me.

 

[thenewageriseth]

Stimulated..? Well I've had belly flops...before...
And I did get butterflies before by looking at her...not all the time, though. But I do stare at her.

 

[Saucy]

yeah, it doesn't make you gay.

 

[thenewageriseth]

Thanx.
