Though I have to say, I'm uncomfortable with being straight because I knew at such at an early age that it was something I had to keep secret and still do. I'm 24 now and never really 'came out' as straight, although if people ask I say I am but I still feel uncomfortable with it now... I was meant to be gay I think  |
Well that's why it's different for gay people.
There is still a stigma surrounding homosexuality, and sadly it's different for gay people in the fact that a lot of people try to hide it in fear of many things. Not being accepted by family/friends, retaining masculinity/femininity, etc.
I'd imagine there are loads of people who have convinced themselves otherwise that they really believe they're not Gay/Bi/Lesbian, but that's the world we live in. There's still a long way to go in terms of acceptance.
