Question
I don't like to take P.E. because I get an erection when I see naked men. It makes me feel uncomfortable when other men look at me. Does that make me gay or bi?
Answer
Erections are very hard to control at your age and do not suggest you are gay or bisexual. In addition, most teens do not like to be looked at -- it is normal to be self-conscious. As you grow older, you will know if you are attracted to women or men.
