You may have heard of an Alfred Kinsey- a psychologist (or was he a psychiatrist) who was primarily interested in sexual behavior. He was the one who formalised the sliding scale to represent the behaviors that one would be predisposed to display, from 0 to 6 where 0 is only opposite sex, 6 is only same sex, and most people would probably fall somewhere in between. Another psychologist, Kline, took a leaf from this book and recognised, as you do, that the psychosexual domain is very much a dynamic and variable one, and therefore in his test included a variable for time- such that now one had three values of past behavior, present, and percieved ideal behaviors. Personally, I know that I am only coming to question matters of sexual identity rather late because my environment was very heteronormative, among other possibly relevant psychological and environmental factors. But this does not prevent me from examining my behavior in a disinhibited state, to a limited extent.
