Am I gay or lesbian if I like things that are generally liked by the opposite sex (music, sports, hobby, etc.)?
No. A gay or a lesbian person is someone who feels affection and desire on both an emotional and on a physical level for members of the same sex. A person’s hobby or interest is not defined nor linked to their sexual orientation. It is possible for an LGBTQ+ person to feel drawn to more inclusive environments and to novels, films, artists or hobbies that explore issues related to sexual orientation or gender identity because they can better relate to them. On the other hand, not everyone with those same interests is LGBTQ+.
