Dr. Brodsky says that people who have gay OCD (seriously!) have intrusive and anxiety-provoking thoughts about the same sex — but that their real life activities don’t point towards being gay. He tells ABC News: He says one of these straight dudes who mistakenly think he’s gay might spend all day online looking at gay porn sites, obsessively wondering if he’s gay, but not deriving any pleasure out of it. He says: A gay person doesn’t go through this battle?! Really?! I think plenty of gay people do battle their attractions — also some other people are simply confused and probably mostly attracted to one sex but slightly attracted and intrigued by the other. But then maybe the good doc is right. Maybe there are some genuinely heterosexual people who are, for some reason, consumed with wondering whether he/she is gay. I do have a friend who claims to have frequent sexual thoughts about the same sex — but swears up and down he is straight. I’ve seen enough of this man’s behavior to truly believe he is attracted to women. But I’ve always thought he was probably bi and wouldn’t admit it. But maybe he’s gay OCD? Have you heard of this?
