Question

If a boy I like seems really friendly with his male friend, is he gay?

Community Answer

No, it doesn't mean he is gay. You can't know if he is gay unless he tells you he is.

Community Answer

Don't listen to what people say online, they might just be cyberbullies saying things to try to get a reaction.

No. Having good personal hygiene does not define your sexuality.

How can I attract any gay person?

You can't, everyone is different. Find someone that shares hobbies and personality traits with you or your relanshionship won't last long.

Question

If a man does not have a large penis, can another gay man still find him desirable?

Community Answer

Of course! Some gay men prefer a man with a large penis, but plenty of others don't care either way. As long as you know how to use what you've got, you'll be just fine.

Question

Why is it so hard to find a boyfriend? I'm in year 8 next year, but in year 7, none of the boys were gay.

Community Answer

I had that problem at your age. Some boys will take more time to find out that they're gay, and some just may not be out yet. You will probably just have to be patient. If your school has a gay/straight alliance club, join it. If not, maybe you could start one!

Question

How do you know whether someone is gay or not?

Community Answer

You can't tell if someone is gay unless they tell you that they are. If you think someone is gay, don't assume that they are, but wait patiently in case they want to tell you.

Question

I told my best friend I was gay, and now he won't talk to me, does that mean he is straight?

Community Answer

There's no way to know that without asking him. Even if he had a very negative reaction to you coming out, it could be that he's straight, or it could be that he's gay himself, but he's having a hard time accepting it. Regardless, you should probably just give him some space while he comes to terms with his feelings.
