Actually, in all seriousness, this is an interesting part of Nate's life to see. He's trying to figure out if he wants to be the person that his parents raised him to be, or the person he really is. Which aren't always mutually exclusive.
Right now a lifetime of Christian indoctrination is battling it out with very strong and unsatiated male urges. So he talks up hot chicks at the mall or hangs out with bisexual chicks and desperately wants to bang them, but insists that he won't. We don't know what will really happen because he hasn't really been put to the test. That is, no one has danced closely, rubbed up against Mr. Johnson and suggested they go park someplace quiet.
Nate's thrill at even being noticed by these women tells me that, given the opportunity, his hormones will win out. Which is not a judgement on his character, merely a recognition of the incredible power lust has over men when the moment is right. The key, if he is serious, is not to give himself the opportunity.
Nate... just in case (and I'm serious here), I recommend you keep a condom on your person at all times. I know it would be embarassing if your parents found it. But statistics show that teens who take the abstinence pledge are just as likely to get pregnant or catch STDs as those who don't. I'm not saying that you're planning to have sex, but it's kind of like car insurance -- you don't plan to have an accident either.
