Homosexuality a choice?

I think it based on how you develope over the years subconly and your mental state.

/shrug.

Ethier way, does it really matter, we are all human beings

 

I voted "It's a choice." before reading other statements. But other statements opened my mind. Now that I think about it, why would anyone want to be homosexual? I think you're born with it, or you develop the attraction in your youth.

 

We are all a result of the society we were born into and how we were treated growing up. Nobody chooses to like the taste of pancakes or chooses to play basketball instead of football.


On a side note; some people make the choice to be homosexual, for reasons such as they dont fit in with their group of friends or feel pressured to; but they miss out on the natural chemical reaction known as attraction.

 

It's a choice. Human beings are born with human instinct. It's only after you're born and your mind gets corrupted by society, that you become gay.

 

Exactly, it's not your choice.

You contradicted your first statement. Umm, considering most people are heterosexual, wouldn't "turning" homosexual make them a little different from the group, that wouldn't make them "fit" in the group anymore. You don't choose to be homosexual, you're born that way. The same way you don't choose if you're straight, the same way you don't choose what music you like, etc.

It's not human instinct to be heterosexual...

 

Sure it is. Btw, I think you might(or one of your close friends might) be homosexual :nuts:

 

Prove it? Site some sources... No, I'm heterosexual and none of my friends are homosexual.

 

Well you seem to be passionate about this matter. Why don't you link me the scientific studies you have read over to form your opinions and beliefs?
As for me, I am basing my statement off of my own current philosophies. I don't think you form a sexual preference until later in life. And that preference is influenced in some way by the people around you. Before this happens, you are heterosexual.

 

Here, why don't you watch this short youtube video...

Well, your philosophy is wrong.

 

This is a gross confusion of terms. Which is it: are people asexual before they develop sexual attraction, or are they originally heterosexual and only later develop differing behavior? You can't have it both ways.

 

I'm not going to encourage an argument on human instincts anymore lol. What I know is homosexuality is the wrong way to go. Why? Because you can't reproduce from ejaculating onto a penis or into an anus (as far is I know). Luckily for us our fathers weren't gay and our mother's weren't lesbians.

 

Several questions

• Is homosexuality acceptable when the person in question is infertile and therefore unable to reproduce even if they wanted to?
• In what way is homosexuality the "wrong way to go," given that they are able to reproduce by both natural and synthetic means (nothing prevents a homosexual from having sex with a member of the opposite sex, nor does any prevent them from using a method such as in vitro fertilisation)?
• By saying that homosexuality is the "wrong way to go" are you not implying that somebody can change who they are attracted to? If they can, by what steps could one achieve this?

 

You're backing up your statement because of the fact homosexuals can't reproduce? Pathetic, obviously the word "attraction" means nothing to you.

 

1. lul
2. There's a difference between being bisexual and being homosexual.
3. Everyone can change mental aspects about themselves. Also, mental aspects are constantly changing and evolving. To achieve this, I recommend being a human being.

 

1. What?
2. Did you even read what he said, you didn't reply to some of his statements.
3. You can't change what you are, did you watch the youtube video? What? Homosexuals aren't humans?

 

Sorry, I thought it was common logic to be attracted to someone you are ejaculating onto/into.

 

What a thoughtful response.

I'm well aware. Lacking an attraction to the opposite sex, however, does not prevent you from engaging in sexual relations with them. You did not address the prospect of non-sexual means of reproduction, nor did you explain why we should be so concerned about people's ability and willingness to reproduce.

So you could become gay if you wanted to?

...?

 

1. lulz
2. Yes
3. Last time a checked, "homosexual" was not a species.

 

Being a bisexual means you are attracted to both males, and females. Being homosexual means you are only attracted to members of your own gender.

Attraction has nothing to do with reproduction. For example, if a lesbian were to be raped by a male, just because her sexual orientation is that of a homosexuals, does not mean she will not become pregnant and reproduce. Your sexual orientation in no way dictates whether or not you CAN reproduce, it merely states which gender you are attracted to. In saying that, you can infer that homosexuals are less likely to reproduce, but, they can reproduce to the same extent as heterosexuals.

 

What?

What are they...?
