Ok I’m tired of seeing this claimed, and would like to finally see a poll to see.
As for me no, not in any real sense. Not before I hit puberty at least.
I’m not talking about stuff like why doesn’t Jessica have a penis, I mean actual god damn I wanna hit that, suck that, have that in me type thoughts.
Yes. I felt tingly in my lower abdomen and vulva when I saw certain boys beginning in kindergarten that I can recall, although I didn’t know about sucking or fucking, so my thoughts weren’t that specific, more like, “I want him to touch me.” I’d feel a frisson of excitement when our hands touched passing crayons or if he bumped into me in the coat corner, that I *now *know is the feeling of sexual attraction, although I didn’t have the vocabulary at the time for it.
Does “I’ll show you mine if you show me yours” count, cause if so several times with both girls and boys from about the age of 5.
I wouldn’t say it was “sexual” until the approach of puberty, about a year or so before the hair started to appear.
having a pole to see would provide some answer.
i think it might be rare to find as children that they want to fuck or suck since these activities might be unknown to them.
children might be used to touching themselves and be willing to be touched and touch other children in exchange.
I’m not sure I would qualify that as sexual feeling, as opposed to simple body curiosity. It could also be that I have different ideas about what “sexual feelings” entails versus others. I would say that at the least it would have to involve wanting to perform a sexual act, versus curiosity about the opposite sex’s body parts.
And although it should go without saying, I am not saying either side is wrong or negative.
I engaged in sexual play with a girl at camp. Dunno if my hands grazed her clitoris, but it’s likely.
Whynot: Did you have a “type”? 
Sure did! Brown hair, big smiles, class clowns…my “type” until 6th grade when I found myself suddenly and inexplicably attracted to a studious blond. 
Didn’t have a boyfriend until Freshman year of high school, though. To this day, I’m more of an “unrequited crush from afar” kind of girl.
Yes, I had vaginal sensations in response to certain people and pictures as early as age 5. I’ve always heard that it’s well documented where people have found their little girls, say, humping the stairs banister or somesuch at early ages. Don’t know about boys.
There’s more to sexual feelings than the hit that, suck it feelings. Honestly, I probably didn’t have those feelings really fully developed until college.
But simpler sexual feelings? Crushes, vague sensation of arousal, exploring my own body, a sense of titillation when I read certain parts of more grown up books (Forever by Judy Blume was popular)- absolutely had those feelings long before puberty really hit.
Yes, I had sexual feelings way before puberty.
I masturbated fairly regularly from about six and a half years old onward. This was accompanied by fantasies that were unquestionably sexual in nature even if they didn’t involve any fucking or sucking, which were things I didn’t know about at that point in my life.
Are you male or female, RT? As a female, my memories match yours. Is this not the common female expeerience at least?
Thing is, one may not yet know WHAT is a sexual act, at the time. I’d be aroused by a sight or thought but it was a couple of further years before I learned there’s something you can do about it.
Nope, not at all. For me, that was kinda the whole point of puberty.
That would definitely make it a sexual experience.
Something like this for me. I was having sexual feelings, but I didn’t really understand what they were. Seeing Judy Geeson in To Sir With Love made it all clear to me.
I had my first unmistakable fantasy at the age of 5. Complete with a funny feeling “down there.” Every element of it represented something that continued to this day (e.g. my “taste in men”).
Not that I can recall. Indeed, when I actually did start having sexual feelings, in my early teens, I was quite taken by surprise by them (and this was still well before I had any idea what actually having sex might involve).
It was not actually a sexual feeling, l but when I was about 6 or 7, when children still played whatever they wanted to play outdoors and there was a game of hide and seek going on, I found my (male) self hiding in the same small place as Darlene, a girl across the street who was a year older than me. I remember feeling that there was a difference between being close to a girl and being close to a boy, and I liked being close to a girl a lot better. We were under my dad’s overturned duck skiff behind the house. I happened to meet Darlene again about 60 years later, but made no mention of the incident.
Yeah, I can remember being aroused as early as 5. But I’m not sure it was a physical arousal or just an emotional arousal. IOW: wow! I like looking at that/thinking about that as opposed to woody. Don’t really remember the woody/sexual arousal connection until about puberty.
But alas, it was such a long time ago…
