Loving boys isn't limited to the general hetero-/homosexual division; many boy-lovers are otherwise straight, as you say.

I would classify myself as gay because my sexual attraction is towards people of my own sex, but, for me at least, being a BL is far more than sexual attraction - in fact, I'm not even sure that sexual attraction is a significant factor. It seems a trait of many non-BLs, and heterosexuals, to define everything in terms of sex, when in reality the main factor is emotion. Agape or philia rather than eros.

You'd have to say what you mean by "gay movement" before I could tell you if I identify with it.

As a gay/BL Christian, I have no fear at all about what may happen after I die. I don't believe for a moment that God has any problems with my sexuality - who else formed it? "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you" (Jeremiah 1:5). It is not who or what we are that determines salvation, it is how we use the giofts we have been given.
