Hey BearBoi, sorry I didn't respond sooner, your post was really insightful and made me think a lot.
Thinking about stuff like that was what made me come around. My sexual identity came around the time I was in first grade, why wouldn't it be that way for gays? It's obviously born in to a person, especially when you account for people like you. You just learned by yourself what your sexual identity was, homosexuality wasn't even something you were really aware of. Haters need to start opening up their minds. Once I realized that gays were just born attracted to other guys romantically and physically the same way I'm attracted to women, it really opened up my mind and made me a better person.
I remember having crushes on guys as far back as 1st grade… so clearly some of us realize our sexual identities at a young age. However, even as a child who didn’t understand what ‘sex’ was, I had an almost instinctual understanding that my feelings should be kept hidden. People think kids are dumb, but they aren’t. They are quite aware. Cinderella and the Price live happily ever after; men chase women on TV and in movies; boys kiss girls on billboards and magazine covers… back when I was a kid, ‘gay’ isn’t something you saw or ever heard about. (Except maybe on a very special episode of the Golden Girls or Designing Women.)
