It may be difficult to know whether you are gay, lesbian, heterosexual, bisexual or something else and there is no specific way to know. It is just how you feel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are a man and you are only attracted to other men, you may be gay.

In fact, being LGBTI+ is a thing of pride. You being gay or lesbian does not mean that you should behave or live your life differently. Gay, lesbian and bisexual people come in different sizes and shapes and lead all kinds of lives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>I think I am gay, lesbian or bisexual \u2013 what now?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First of all \u2013 congratulations! Accepting your sexual identity may take time and effort and you should be really proud about taking that step. If you believe you are gay, lesbian or bisexual, it may help you connect with other young people who are LGBTI+, find out more about yourself and make friends with similar experiences. The Estonian LGBT Association is an organisation uniting LGBT+ people, which may be one of the ways to find support and friendship in your new stage of life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Identifying your sexuality, feeling content about it and learning to know yourself is a process that may take time and there is no set timeline you have to follow. You may feel that you are ready to tell certain people in your life, and that is great, but you do not have to tell anyone if you feel uncomfortable doing it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The opinion of friends and family can mean a lot to us and it can be nerve-wracking to hide something from them or decide to tell them. If you are having issues with your feelings about telling someone that you are LGBTI+, it may help to talk about it.

It all depends on what you and your partner like and feel comfortable with. Just because you identify one way sexually does not mean that sex for you has to be a certain way. Regardless of the sex you choose, it should be something that gives pleasure to you and your partners. Pleasure should be at the centre of all sexual experiences and it may take time before you find out what you enjoy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is also crucial that, regardless of the sex you are practising, it is emotionally and physically safe.
