How to know if i am gay or bi

Things you need to know if you&#;re questioning whether you’re female homosexual or bi

If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve discovered you like the same sex, but are not quite sure whether that makes you lesbian or bisexual. Although we shouldn’t experience pressure to label ourselves, it can be beneficial to search our identities. 

For many queer people, figuring out one’s sexuality is not always an easy process. Sexuality is complex and can often get confusing (and even downright overwhelming!). Your sexuality may not be so black and white, and you may uncover yourself being attracted to multiple different genders. On top of this, being raised in a heteronormative society can make figuring out one’s sexuality all the more complicated. 

For women and nonbinary folks, it can sometimes be even more difficult to distinguish where we fall on the LGBTQIA+ spectrum. We grew up with little to no inclusion of queer women and nonbinary people in the media.

OCD, as we recognize, is largely about experiencing severe and unrelenting doubt. It can cause you to doubt even the most basic things about yourself – even your sexual orientation. A study published in the Journal of Sex Research create that among a group of college students, 84% reported the occurrence of sexual intrusive thoughts (Byers, et al. ).

Is being able to be Bi or Queer that important?

Hello, i really hope this topic doesnt offend anyone and if it does, i am sorry
so i am thinking about making a choice of games and trying to emphasize on the romance aspect(even tho its not the main aspect of the story but still important)
seeking inspirations from other CoGs and HGs, and finding that most of the romance in their story are being qualified to let the main character to be Bi and Gay(which seems to be important because its everywhere).
and those aspects really burden me because i cant make all the romanceable characters to be Bi’s unless i make them to be. I dont really brain with creating characters with same gender only passion, but imagining characters i made for the male protagonist(except characters i create them to be homosexual or bi from the first place) got romanced by female protagonist and vice versa really disturb me.
so is it really important to comprise this on every story ??

Ps.
a question: I am a guy, and if i am playing as a girl and romance a guy in a game… does that makes me gay ??
(sorry for any wron
