I read an interesting article saying that many people "whether they want to admit it or not" sometimes wonder

about their sexual orientation, even if its idle wondering. It's worse for me because I have OCD. I read in this article that its best to view sexual orientation as handedness. left handed or right handed. which is an innate thing. A lefthander can FORCE themselves to write right handed, but this will not change the hard-wiring of their brains, which will compel them to favor the left hand. How accurate is this? Is there a way to look into someones brain and see what handed they are..if so..then what about orientation. I know I'm straight. I only ever got hard ons over girls my whole life, its just my OCD and it'd be nice to see physical proof of it. My OCD makes me think I got AIDS still after getting a negative test result and makes me think I have stomach cancer when I have a stomach ache to..soo I guess I worry myself too much. Also heres another question. thats unrelated, but I heard of a "sense of self" part of the brain, does it reveal who u truly are? whats up with it?

Have you seen a doctor about the OCD? There are medications which help. I think OCD must be exhausting. If you haven't, go see a doctor. Life is hard enough without having OCD to deal with. Take whatever help you can get. Have a better life. Good luck.

If your question were longer, I might have believed you had OCD.

I think that there maybe something to this article. I mean it would explain the old cliche about when girls (usually it's in reference to girls) 'experiment' sexually when they go off to college.

I don't wonder,I just accept the fact that sometimes I am attracted to girls sexually never emotionally and men I am always attracted to.(good looking of course).I don't believe its wired in your brain,but more the in the type of society and home you grew up in.Or maybe its both,nature versus nurture.

I think that a number of people do question their sexuality- Maybe not hardcore question, but wonder "hmm, what if.." I don't think it's really anything to be worried about. Some might exercise the idea, but it doesn't really amount to much. I can give you a list of 10 girls that I find attractive, but I don't really have the urge to be with them. I think you are looking too deep into this. If you are not wondering about your sexuality, then that's definitely fine. You are content with who you are - at least it seems that way.

I never heard of the left/right analogy. But I guess it seems pretty accurate.

Just a quick, fun fact. Most homosexuals tend to be left-handed.

There are several things to consider when reading an articel, SOURCE - each scientist, Doctor, student, whomever has their own beliefs and their own biases.
I know MOST people I have ever known have NEVE questioned their sexuality and I get sick and tired of people saying that we're all "bisexual".
How can look into someone's brain and know these things?
Can you look into someone's eyes and know if they're good or bad? NOpe, you can guess, assume or "predict".
Hollywood is also always trying to push homosexuality on us, they try to include a gay person in everything as though homosexuality were a freaking RACE, when did they become a race or an ethnic group, don't forget they ONLY make up less than 10% of the population, but they have pull so you'd think they're everywhere cos that's what they want us to believe

Yep, you have OCD.
