To encounter a same sex dream and having to be straight is quite common and doesn’t mean you are gay. The unconscious is androgynous as humans are made up of both male and female characteristic.

Jungian

A very common dream, yet often misunderstood, is dreaming of performing sexual acts with the same gender. Especially in the work setting, dreaming of connecting with others in an intimate way can symbolize how you are exploring and integrating the attributes or behavior of another. In a competitive situation, 'mounting' can be a symbol of your feelings about becoming more dominant or being dominated in the work environment. Being intimate with the same sex is a way of 'incorporating' the deeper aspects of either the feminine (sensitive/intuitive) or masculine (assertive/empowered) nature. This type of dream can also be exploring your hunger or lack of affection from either your mother or father and how you are transforming the role modeling that you adopted. See People, Affair and Anima/Animus.

Islamic (Ibn Sirin)

Molesting a child, or forcing a boy to sodomy in a dream means committing an evil act, loss of one’s capital to one’s enemy, engaging in loathsome actions, losing dignity, or confronting an enemy.
