I think it's your personal decision how you choose to identify yourself. Some people base their identity on their emotional attraction, some on their sexual attraction, and some on both. I know it can be difficult to decide how to identify yourself, and that it would be easier in some ways to have someone else tell you what you are...The only problem with that is that people all define themselves in different ways. You could call yourself bisexual since you ARE attracted in certain ways to both sexes...or you could just call yourself gay...and either way, being bisexual doesn't mean that you have to be equally attracted or attracted in the same way to both sexes. So whatever you call yourself will be fine. Hope this helps. Good luck. : )

It's difficult to judge that because emotional can mean so many things. I think women are more often emotionally attracted to women than men, but are still "straight". It's who you feel comfortable with. I am very comfortable with my best girl-friends because that's all we CAN have. I don't find girls attractive, but we get along just fine. Men are a different story, especially straight men, but I find them terribly attractive. So I guess I'm still gay, but really close to women in a sense of friendship.
