Questioning my sexuality

In light of recent events this past year I have no idea if Im straight, bi or lesbian, has anyone experienced a change in who they are attracted to due to their injury ? eg they were straight and fancied men before but after the injury have done a 360 and now fancy women kind of thing.

I only ask as I am horrified and revolted every time I see a penis and I cant understand why.

bexx my sis in law is married to a lovely lady,prior to meeting her she always had man woman relationships.

when her relationship was going through a rough patch it was this woman she talked to and fell in love with.

dont feel guilty about your feelings, go out and meet someone and sit and talk to them about your feelings and let nature take its course.

good luck

I am as confused as you are! Are you horrified by the phallus or revolted by it. Is it the symbology or the purpose of the penis which presents these feelings? Bizarrely, I cannot offer any advice on a case like this but I believe that sexuality, like any behaviour, can change through BI (a pun on words there)

As you know behaviour is affected by BI so why not sexuality
