Correct. And while the term "homosexual" is generic, the term
"gay" usually refers to male homosexuals while the term "lesbian"
(or "lesbo" for short) refers to female homosexuals.
The term "faggot" is usually used in a degraratory, insulting
manner, and like the malay word "bapok", refers to effeminate men
who are usually gays.
But note that there are gays who are not effeminate, and there are
effeminate men who are not gays.
In total, there are 14 types of people. (In the following

attracted to".)

One's sexual orientation is a complex matter which is influenced or
partially determined by *many* factors, including biological
genetics (DNA) of your physical body; biochemical and hormonal
factors (there are chemicals that can alter sexual behaviour), also
partially affected by family (eg. parental factor) and other
psychological or societal factors, while growing up; and very
importantly, it is also determined by the qualities of your own
higher self or soul (while all souls are both simultaneously male
and female, a soul who's lived many lifetimes as a male, when
incarnating as a female for a first time, may naturally have
masculine, lesbian tendencies), and finally can also be determined
by your own free will (yes, you can choose to develop, focus, or
express various aspects of your sexuality more than others).
Which of the above 14 types are you? Ask yourself honestly, and no
matter what your choice is, the only important thing is that you
unconditionally love yourself and be comfortable with your sexual
orientation, no matter what it is, no matter what you choose it to
be. Be happy, be loving and be accepting, towards yourself and
towards others. That's the most important thing.
