Am I Gay? - Being gay is common. It is estimated that 10% of the population are gay. But these can only be very rough estimates.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) organisations tend to believe that the real figures are much higher than that, and they may well be right – especially as close inspection of the ONS statistics reveals that 3 per cent of the population that they surveyed did not answer the question about sexual orientation.

'Am I gay?' is a question that's often asked by young people, now there is much more openness and honesty about discussing male homosexuality and lesbianism.

Actually, it is quite a difficult question to answer, since we now realise that there is a wide spectrum of sexual orientation – with some people being exclusively gay, some people being exclusively heterosexual and a lot of us falling somewhere in between.

It is interesting that the question 'Am I gay?' usually worries young men much more than it does young women.

This is partly because of the fact that in the first 16 years of this century, there appears to have been quite a shift in public attitudes concerning lesbian behaviour among women.

A lot of younger adults now seem to take the view that it is fairly acceptable for a female to go through a phase in which she fancies other attractive women.

There also appears to be a growing feeling among many younger people of both genders that sex is there to be enjoyed in various forms, and that they do not really want to be categorised as being heterosexual, bisexual, lesbian or gay.

However, there are still large numbers of young men who have been brought up believing that there is a stigma attached to being homosexual. They tend to feel very distressed if anyone questions their sexual orientation or if they begin to have any doubts about it themselves.

Amazingly, it's still true that some younger males are liable to become violent if somebody suggests they are gay.
