It's interesting how some gay people will subconsciously bury the feelings to fit in when they were younger. When I was 12 my older brother's friend stayed with us one summer after he got out of the army. He was 20 and stayed in my room since it had twin beds. He slept in the nude and several times I'd woke up to find he'd moved the covers off during the night (it was summer after all). My 12 year old brain exploded and I didn't know what was going on, but I still didn't realize what it meant until well into my high school years. Even then I tried to make myself think it was just a phase until after I graduated.

This kid is 15 years younger than me and has a very similar story to mine... Although I will say the calling things "gay" as a negative was happening during my highschool years, not third grade. Came out when I was 16, but when I was in second grade I was vocal and unapologetic about my absolute love for Zac Hanson... So they should've seen it coming.

I remember when I first realised I was gay. There was never any angst or suppression of my sexuality, I believe it took some time to legitimately develop when I was about 12-15. Went through a phase where I knew I wasn't straight but was only physically attracted to men while physically/romantically attracted to women. Then I had my first crush on one of my good friends at the time when I was about 16 and that's when I started to become physically/romantically attracted to men while only romantically attracted to women. It only took about 6-8 months after that to only be attracted to men and not women, and that's when I knew for sure I was gay. It's interesting because I never tried to suppress anything - even at 12 yrs old, I was very open with myself about who I was. I didn't feel like anyone "deserved" to know my sexuality, and they would find out if I told them or they could speculate.

My sister would tell her boy friends " my brother is gay." Then somehow, she would invite 2 guys to the house for a date. She intended to give me one. That was a hit mess. The guy that paid more attention to me, I picked. She went out with the other. What a life.šŸ˜Š

Some gay people know such as myself since age 12 some donā€™t discover it till later. What matters is you find yourself eventually. It may take time but it will happen

I knew I was attracted to men since the age of 6. I wasn't sexually/emotionally attracted to men until after puberty. I've never been attracted to women other than as friends. All of my thoughts felt natural to me. I never thought of them as "intrusive" or unnatural. I knew the problem wasn't me.

I recall feeling attraction for the same gender in first grade around age seven. Then by age nine those feelings became more developed around the thoughts of intimate acts and I knew I was gay and kept it quiet to everyone till about 16, and then only close trusted family and friends.

At age 53 now, coming from a traditional Irish Catholic background in Rural Ireland in the 1980ā€™s where being gay was a big taboo, it was much more difficult for me as I was raised an only child and amid traditional Catholic concepts about ā€œbad companyā€ and ā€œoccasions of sinā€ in any contacts outside of the immediate family circle, to uphold the good name of the parish and the family, where the local Catholic Parish priest, the local doctor and the police seargent ruled our village with a Rod of iron - I had no friends in school, in fact I was intensely bullied, was labelled as ā€œmadā€ and ā€œnot right in the headā€ when I first came out - in fact, my parents reaction to my coming out was to frogmarch me to the Parish priest to confess to the sin of being gay, then to be told in no uncertain terms by the police seargent that I was ā€œnot well and not right in the headā€ and to go to the doctor - I endured pills and severe corporal punishment to cure me of being gay, but then, the gay people I met on the Dublin gay scene, especially other gay men, were totally unaccepting, bitchy, catty and judgemental and this continued up until after Iā€™d moved to the U.K. in 2002 where I had the same reaction - although now reconciled with my family in Ireland, I cut all ties with and support from the gay community 18 years ago here in the U.K. and Iā€™ve become a traditional Catholic and an Irish patriot, involved in the Irish truth and patriot movement since Covid, despite my autism diagnosis in 2021, even though some in the Irish truth and patriot movement (understandably) donā€™t accept my gay identity due to their traditional Irish Catholic beliefs

I went to this church camp for the first time with my friend. I mustā€™ve been like 9 or 10. The camp areas were separated with boys and girls in separate areas. One of the counselors that stayed our cabin was also the drummer in the band. He was like in his late teens, Iā€™m guessing 17-19. I had the biggest crush on him the whole time. Iā€™ve had crush-like feelings towards boys before but I didnā€™t really recognize it as that until later. This time was very obvious to me. I just found everything about him very appealing. I would find any excuse to talk to him. Honestly, a lot about that week really opened my eyes to the fact that I liked boys in more than just a friendly way. Not to mention my friendā€™s crazy friend ran from the showers back to the cabin naked, without the counselors noticing lol. Itā€™s kind of ironic how all this happened at a Christian camp.

I knew I was gay at 9... Except I didn't know what gay, homosexual or straight were! I just knew guys my age turned me on on another level. I even thought the other guys in my class were not developed yet, because they didn't get excited in the showers after physical ed. Instead they childishly wanted to bother the girls šŸ˜… It was years later that I learned that straight was normal and gay was really really really really bad (mid 1990s, southwest Europe). Then, I went to a phase of denial (after having known for few years already) and was in the closet until too late, tbh. Having had positive representation or some acknowledgement that it's ok to be gay, would have helped to have a better life for so many years. I just don't want new generations to go through the same: representation in media comforts and brings understanding to gay kids, it does not "convert" the straight ones

I am of an older generation and my time, my country, being gay wasn't even a concept ever talk about (positively or negatively), People just don't openly talk about sex, str or otherwise. Since internet was a new thing in my teens, I don't even realized what gay is (it's also a time when TV only started to mention there is such a concept), I figure out when I realized I only ever check out guys, never girls. And I have fetishes long before I realized what they are, or what sex is. Figuring it out when there is no negative stigma or preconception to be had, makes things a lot easier.
