can homosexuality be a choice?

Sure, you can date whoever you want to.
But if you know your gay and your trying to live a straight life, you're never going to be happy. No matter how well you can pretend.
 
^ Probably the same way that two people who are deaf might have a non-deaf child.

Or how two people with brown hair could give birth to a redhead.

Or how... you get my point?

It's not purely a given in any case in point. You heard of dominant and recessive traits? I'd be willing to gander being homosexual is a recessive trait, meaning it's much more likely to have a heterosexual child. Just like being hearing-enabled, or brunette are dominant over their recessive traits.
 
Your born who your supposed to be, just like your life is already planned out and all your doing is taking each breath so you can get a little closer to death.
 
I don't think homosexuality is a choice anymore then heterosexuality is. I can no more help it that i am attracted to the opposite sex then someone can who is attracted to the same sex. I couldn't suddenly decide to like guys so i doubt a gay guy could decide to like women all of a sudden either.
 
bah...im sick of this topic. almost no one is all the way one way or the other, and propagating the myth of "gay or straight" just makes the problem worse...i know plenty of "gay" people that have had heterosexual sex, and plenty of "straight" people that have had gay sex.

cant find the quote, but saw it on FB the other day...something about homosexual or heterosexual should only refer to the act of sex, not towards the preference of the actors...put much more succinctly, of course
 
WHO FUCKING CARES!!!

drug addicts were not born addicts they chose to ingest drugs, just like gays chose to ingest dick [even if its unnatural and sick].
 
I believe that much of homosexuality is explained in this study review:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22364652

If an individual has full capability to use either hemisphere of the brain, which putting it simply is more effeminate or masculine in thought and emotional tendency. Exposure to the "right" family social conditions a male for example, could find himself more or better adapted to what is the effeminate, 'right thought process'. For a female the opposite occurs, where she becomes acclimated to the 'left thought process'.

This is not the formula for what many religious organizations claim to be a sin.

Can being gay be a choice?
I think so, anyone can only have an intimate relationship with the same sex, but to exhibit and live by the traits of the opposite sex, would be a tough act to carry on for very long.
 
I would definately say that the day you are born into this life you are already wired for what you like. If that is 100% the opposite gender or not depends on testosterone and estrogen balance I suspect.

I am quite sure it would be just as hard for me to want to sexually desire a man that it would be to sexually desire a big fat woman with red hair - that is impossible!
 
personally... i dunno. i have a friend that is gay, but personally i have spent my entire life (at least once i became sexually aware) attracted only to women. i dont think i ever had a choice... my parents arent bible thumpers or prejudiced against gay people, nor was anything remotely anti-gay beaten into me or even really introduced to me. i simply was always physically and psychologically attracted to women. simultaneously, in a personal capacity i would find it rather disgusting/repulsive (not trying to offend anyone) to do anything sexual with another guy, and i have always felt that way. i never thought about it much earlier in life, and these feelings have always been there. women are the only gender i have ever had an attraction to in any kind of physical or intimate way. i have plenty of friends who are guys, but i never felt even remotely similar feelings/attraction towards any male i have ever seen or met. i do however have a male friend who 'consciously decided' he was bisexual. this may not be entirely true, due to the fact that he is an extremely atheistic and would probably do anything to spite his view of christianity and other religions... i am in no way affiliated with any religion nor do i really believe in any of them. i think various religions were started for various reasons by men for men, either to control people, motivate people, give people a set of morals, preserve the life of any one person by means of creating a religion with the religious creator as its figure head, etc. so in other words... from what i can deduce i have a completely biological heterosexual nature. and im perfectly happy with that. so thats my 2 cents... i have nothing against gay people, but its just not for me. AT ALL.
