Is it ok to be a gay sikh? I realy fancy my best friend Peter and he told me he likes me too. Once we have kissed, and cuddled... I feel good inside, is it ok?

Dear Palm:

Sat Siree Akaal Ji. I am not going to say it is or is not "OK" to be a gay Sikh. Such a judgement is not up to me or anyone else for that matter.

I can tell you that there are certainly people in this world who identify themselves as both Sikh and gay. For most people, sexuality is not "chosen" conciously. There are those who see their sexuality as a something they were born with, or even as a gift from God. It is up to you to determine if you are merely experimenting or are really gay. (PS: you can search this Youth Forum for other posts on this topic, using searchword "gay.")
God bless you,
