[quote=Anonymous]I saw a study a few years ago (can't find it now). They asked teens at 15, 17, 19, 21 and 23 about their sexual orientation. The % identifying as not straight was highest at 15 and 17. Many of those teens by age 21 identified as straight. A few teens who identified as straight at 15 onward identified as non straight by their early twenties. There was only a slight change between 19 and 21 and even less change between 21 and 23. Most of the changes where between 15 and 19. There was also a high percentage who did not change at all from 15-23. So basically they concluded that whatever you identify as being your sexual identity at 21 is likely to be who you are. That there are some kids who just know for sure there SO very early on but that for a significant group of teens, they experiment and find themselves between 15 and 19.[/quote]
