Sexuality
What is sexuality?
Our sexuality is an essential part of who we are and how we see ourselves in relation to other people. During puberty you may have lots of different feelings about sex and about yourself. This may seem a confusing time, decisions about sexuality do not have to be made quickly and you may change your mind later. Sexuality becomes easier to understand when it is split into three parts: sexual orientation, sexual behaviour and sexual identity.
Sexual orientation is the nature of a person's sexual attraction to other people. (Who you fancy). Some people are straight (heterosexual) - this means that they are sexually and emotionally attracted to people of the opposite sex. Some people are gay (homosexual/lesbian) - this means sexually and emotionally attracted to people of the same sex as themselves. And some people are bisexual - this means sexually and emotionally attracted to people of both sexes.
