Is homosexuality determined at birth, or is it a choice? Options

Theories?

we aren't dogs
we aren't talking about if homosexuality is a choice for dogs
we're talking about humans

what's normal for an animal isn't necessarily normal for a human, and they often do things for different reasons than humans. ever heard of male dogs mounting each other as a way of showing dominance? not necessarily for sexual pleasure. just because a dog performs a "homosexual act" doesn't mean that dog is gay, or that it prefers male dogs, because the same dog would probably do the same thing with a female. it's ridiculous to base ur opinion off what animals do, because sexual orientation in animals and sexual orientation in humans are completely different.

omfg, thank you!


Personally I think its by the experiences you go through in life that kind of affect what orientation you are. I mean think about it.

A woman is raped by a guy she may have been closed to and once straight but after so a traumatic trauma she just doesn't want to be with men or trust them because something like that happened so she turns over to women because it seems like she can trust them more.

I'm no ignorant, but I can't possibly understand how the hell theres a gay gene.

Okay, so you're just closed-minded, then.

Josh, I am revolted that you are still spewing your shit in this topic after all these months. I should report you for what you said to that girl a couple of posts ago, too. Not to mention your racist comments. Holy shit, now I'm actually going to report you because you never cease to be a nasty little bugger.

Gay people should stop trying to press this "I'm born gay" issue, and just accept that they want to be gay. I personally could care less if you or anyone you know is a homosexual. In fact, I don't mind homosexuals at all. At the same time, when in Rome. You don't goto the crypts and tell them your a blood. You play along, and try your best to fit in so you don't get your ass kicked. The only point I'm trying to make in saying this is:

If your going to be some flamboyant homosexual with tight pants and a pink shirt then you should just accept the fact that society doesn't take well to people who are clearly standing out. Why do you think people hang together in groups? Because they have similar ideas, they compliment each other. A flamboyant homosexual with a bunch of jocks would just seem out of place because it is out of place. They aren't going to accept this queer kid with a lisp. It's not because he's gay, it's just because he's a f**king alien to them.

Please, make a less rational point next time. In what universe does it make sense to say that being gay is a choice because flamboyant gays don't fit in with jocks? First off, not every football player in existence is a narrow minded jackass; some actually have gay friends. Secondly, are you trying to suggest that they're trying to get mainstream society to reject them? Because that's just silly. As far as I can tell from your indecipherable bullshit about the blood and crypts, you're disproving your own 'point.' People don't try not to fit in, so it must be natural for them not to. By saying, "you play along, and try your best to fit in so you don't get your ass kicked," you're suggesting that homosexuals would actually have to play along to seem straight, which would make it a natural thing and not a choice, because in what way does it make sense to suggest that someone should try really hard not to fit in as they simultaneously pretend they do? I cannot believe how dense you are.
