There's often a gender nonconfmormity to it especially present in children that can make them feel "different" from a young age. I never started to realise I was gay until I was 12, but I did always feel a bit different. And when I look back at my childhood it's just fucking obvious I'd be gay.
That's not the case for all gay people sure, but one thing that's ubiquitous for all people is that their sexual orientation is not a choice.
Children are certainly aware of the concept of "romance" (helped along by Disney's "happily ever after" trope). However, their understanding of intimate relationships is rudimentary and innocent. a little girl playing as a princess fantasizing about finding her Prince is not the same as knowing about sex and having the hormones to experience sexual arousal.
Hmmm?
Gender non-conformity. So is it like trans gender that a gay person holds or has the opposite sex feeling inside?
Let us take out sexual attraction as it relates to sex for second and say attraction is what pulls a person or what makes a person into another person.
The fact that a girl would think of a "Prince", does that not give an indication to the sexual oration of the girl at that young of an age? she is attracted to a male. And as you say she does not know what intercourse is or what love and so on. But the basic element of attract not shows what she is straight, or gay?
This might get a little confusing.Sorry. But let see how it goes.
Also, I have hear, as you stated, that there is more to being gay than sex, I would agree that there is more to people than sex. But if we are to say that the sexual orientation is not the key factor that is the differences between straight or gay (which is sexual orientation) between what is the different um (no sue what to call it but, I guess characteristic, trite, or key that differs from straight and gay? What is it that key element that make's one say oh I am gay or bi?
So another what is sexual orientation is not the differences between the sexual orientation then what is.
Get what I am trying to say?
hahhaha sorry if it is to confusing, let me know so I can try and reword it.
