    There’s nothing wrong with not sleeping around, sometimes it’s our upbringing (don’t go and get any girl pregnant o), our mindset & self discipline (I need to get my career and finances right) and fear of God. It’s sad that sleeping around has become the norm that that disciplined people are feeling like the black sheep.

      The movie industry glorifies and normalises sexual promiscuity and sex without commitment. One-night stands and waking up from a drunken night out in a strange bed feature in almost every movie now. It is systematic programming. Now, we have people who have grown up in this zeitgeist and think it is the normal way to live, and that sexually discerning people are dysfunctional. One has to consciously resist this programming to escape its power.

      This kind of assumption is EXACTLY what he is complaining about. A straight, woman-loving man can be affectionate, sensitive, in touch with his emotions etc. Men know which men are sexy or not because men are not blind. They may not use the word sexy but if we're being honest, we know what features make a man more attractive. Facts.
      Finally, if you have suspicions about a person's sexuality, ask the person. Once they tell you who they are (like bro has done in this video), please believe them and leave them alone. Abeg.

    But talking about this issue getting to a point where you needed a therapist, I would say that there is every possibility that you are bisexual but you are scared and afraid to accept that fact because of the consequences of your conclusion and decision on your sexuality based the kind of country and environment we find ourselves, Anyways i know it not easy to pour and spill everything out to us here on the media. But my advice is just be yourself and that is the only way you can be happiness.

      I don't think he is suppressing his identity. First he has close pals who are gay, that can bring those issues constantly in his face. Secondly he lives in a society that makes a big deal about men complimenting men on their looks. And since he has been around gay men a lot, he prides himself in being complemented by fellow guys. That alone can mess his perception of his sexual identity especially when his experiences are questioned. Thirdly, he was in an emotionally abusive relationship. I believe he is not bisexual.
