Hi guys, i want to ask for your opinion. So long short story, i love to read BL manga/manhwa/manhua, its been maybe 7/8 years since i start reading BL. And this year, i start to read GL manga/manhwa/manhua because of curiousity and it turns out i also like it and now im still searching for good GL manga. Am i still a straight girl or not?? But in real life, i think i dont have interest with girls. But sometimes when i scroll video from tiktok or IG and see some cool girls, i think i'm a little bit interest to them is it normal??

    The answer depends on u tbh, but from my perspective you're BI. (I think) Since I'm BI with the same situation as u

    Well this might be sort of finding out but you can be straight and like GL. If you don't have any further intentions such as like being in a relationship with a woman or ykyk sexually too then ur straight but if u start to have one you may be bisexual with just a dominant like for maybe men (unless ur asexual)

    Reading BL / gl didn't really change your sexuality. Except, your sexuality actually is in that direction and you just didn't find out yet. The only way to find out is exposing yourself to any gender relationship.

    I think you're straight. U can enjoy queer media without being queer. The same way people love murder documentaries and crime stories but don't want to be involved w them irl. The same way I love watching seafood mukbangs but don't like eating them. Weird examples ik. But don't stress about labels. Just let urself love whatever and whoever u love. If u fall for a girl someday, then you'll realise you were gay. If not, that's OK too. Sexuality doesn't hv to be so complicated

    I read mostly bl rather than gl but I do fall in love with women, men doesn't matter (im pansexual). Though lately I've been leaning into girls more cuz men never fails to disappoint me, my reason of not really diving into gl content is due to how everytime I do read one its so badly written Idk maybe ill try to reconnect with gl again since its been a while and maybe there are actually good ones

    Fictional characters will always have a chokehold on me regardless of their gender and my sexuality, so I don’t think you should think too hard about it

    Are you sure you're not just attracted to their beauty lmaooo

    Bruh I have a lesbian friend that reads yaoi. That doesn’t mean she’s straight it just means she likes the genre

    this is really interesting but tbh it is you who can truly figure it out. But what’s fascinating is a lot of queer people realise theyre actually queer through reading lgbtq+ stories. In my case, I also thought I was a cis straight bc Im only attracted to the opposite sx, but the problem is, I never want any relationship and Im only attracted to them bc of their looks. I couldnt grasp the concept of someone falling in love other than their physical looks (v vain and superficial) then it turns out Im actually aromantic

    i don’t think it changes your sexuality at all lmao. i’ve been reading them for like 9 years now, i’m a lesbian, always have been. never felt attracted to men at all.
