Quiz: Am I Gay?
Last Updated 22.01.26
○ DISCLAIMER
This quiz is for entertainment only and cannot determine your sexuality or gender identity. It is not a diagnostic tool and shouldn't guide major life decisions. For genuine support with identity questions, please consult qualified LGBTQ+-friendly professionals. Your self-discovery journey is uniquely yours.
Homosexuality is a persistent emotional, romantic, and/or sexual attraction to people of the same gender. Scientific consensus is clear: homosexuality is a natural variation of human sexuality, observed in all cultures and historical periods. It’s not a choice, not a phase, and not a result of upbringing – it’s simply part of who you are. Sexual orientation exists on a spectrum, and this gay quiz can help you explore where you might fit on that spectrum.
Common indicators the quiz examines include emotional attraction to people of the same gender, physical and sexual attraction, romantic fantasies, and how comfortable you felt in past relationships. Sometimes people enter relationships that don’t align with their true orientation due to social pressure – a phenomenon known as compulsory heterosexuality. It’s also important to recognize that romantic and sexual attraction don’t always coincide, adding another layer of complexity to self-discovery.
If you’re questioning your orientation, know that this process can take time, and that’s completely normal. There are no deadlines for understanding yourself. This quiz can help structure your thoughts and provide questions for reflection as you explore your identity.
