There is no one way to know if you are a member of the LGBT community, but the easiest way to know might be to pay attention to whom you are sexually attracted. If you are predominantly sexually attracted to people of the same sex, you might be gay or lesbian. If you are equally or nearly equally attracted to people of both sexes, you may be bisexual. Sexuality is a complex part of your identity and is composed of many factors. Don't feel any pressure to decide what your sexuality is before you are ready. Talk with people from a variety of different sexual orientations who are warm and welcoming to clarify how you feel about who you are. Keep in mind it is never wrong or bad to be who you truly are.

There is no easy answer to this question, and yet at the same time it is a very simple question. Basically, if you find that you are attracted (sexually, romantically, etc.) to people of the same sex or gender as you, or to people of more than one sex or gender, then in all likelihood you are not straight. It's that simple. However, no one can tell you if you are gay or pan or any label. That's something that you have to discover for yourself, and it's something that may not be simple or even constant. Sexuality is fluid. I'm either pan or bi or queer depending on how I feel about the words on any given day. What does it mean practically? It means I am open to relationships with many types of people, and I accept that about myself. Accept yourself, love yourself, use labels if and only if they help you.

Sometimes, I think labels are too much. If you find yourself being attracted to people of the same gender, then maybe take a moment to see who else you find yourself attracted to. If you find that labeling yourself causes more stress than comfort, then you aren't required to so. People can be attracted to whomever they find themselves attracted to, without having to defend those attractions.

I think I know that I am gay since, I was 3 or 5, you really don't know your different unless you were told so when every body starts to tease you, being gay, lesbian, or bisexual is a natural feeling, like your hair above your head . . . it grows naturally without you knowing it .

You don't have to be any of those things. All you have to be is comfortable with who you are and who you love. It doesn't matter who they are, what matters is that you love eachother.

Do you find yourself thinking, in either sexual or romantic context, about anything other than the opposite binary gender of yours? If yes, then it comes down to your own gender, the gender of the person(s) you're attracted to and from that you can draw a conclusion of one of the above. Gay refers to a guy attracted, either sexually or romantically, to guys. Lesbian refers to a girl attracted, either sexually or romantically, to girls. Bisexual refers to a person of either gender attracted, either sexually or romantically, to both binary genders.

Depends on who all you seem to be physically attracted to. Coz emotional attraction may lie at timesome.

if you feel attraction to girls and guys then you are bisexual, if you are attracted to people of the same gender as you and only the same gender as you then you are either gay or lesbian :)
