Struggling with Being Queer and My Beliefs

Hi everyone,

I’m a bisexual individual, and I’ve been struggling with accepting myself because I feel like being queer might be a sin in Hinduism. I’ve tried everything to stop being attracted to men and to turn myself straight, but I just can’t—it feels so natural and beyond my control.

I’m torn between who I am and what I believe, and I don’t know what to do. Is it okay to be queer, or is it truly wrong? If it’s not okay, how do I stop being this way? Are there any punishments or consequences I should be worried about for being queer?

I’m feeling lost and confused and would really appreciate any guidance, insights, or support. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
