[Discussion] Reasons Behind Homosexuality

[Henrik]

I personally believe that it's not a choice to be gay or not, but it's not something you're born with. Sexuality in my opinion, is something that is developed and shaped through time as you live your life before puberty. You're not aware of the concept of sexual attraction at that time so you don't really try and do things one way to lean towards a certain sexuality. Sexuality is something that's developed subliminally through life experiences. Of course there's no study to back myself up of course, it's just the guess I'm making as a gay guy myself :s.

Did you chose to be gay? Nope you didn't.

So to all saying ''It's a choice''; save me for it.

 

[Prime Rib]

if you can choose who you love then you can choose what *** you like ;P

You just told him what he did :|

Pretty sureyou cant do that Lol

 

[YowYan]

lol at all the nimwits on here.

 

[Cursed Prince]

So what everyone believes is that they are forced to be gay?
And we're forced to be straight?

Well okay :|

 

[HadouKage]

lol at all the nimwits on here.

Nimwits of what? People's opinion? :|
Last I checked being gay at birth isn't a fact nor is there any evidence to prove so. Though there is proof to factors in affecting ones 0sexual identity. It his opinion. Stop judging

 

[Nature Sage]

i know you do, but I only think it's a choice some instances. In most, it is biological.

I can't necessarily agree with this unless there are facts proving that some people preferences are completely controlled genetically.

 

[Dreckerplayer]

You'd have to be a blind IDIOT to deny the existence of bisexuality. You can see it with your own two eyes.

I've SEEN a woman ovulate by a man AND a woman. How can you deny something that you can easily SEE in porn.

They get aroused by both sexes...how can you deny something that can be easily proven? Because your bisexual, and you're in denial.

Edit: For those of you who can 'chose', sorry to tell you...you're bisexual.

His opinion based on collective ignorance, yes.
"Stop judging"? Oh the irony

 

[FemmeFatale]

You dont choose it, if you did you would imitate your parents and everything else in the media telling you that man and woman = right. People are born with it, I knew i liked what I liked at the age of 2. Though some girl pretend to be gay to attract male attention

 

[EnDash]

i believe someone can be born gay, like have genes that decide his sexual preference. but i also believe it can change during his life. we don't have to be the same way from birth to death, this is not saying that gay people should try and change, just that it's not written in a scroll somewhere and you can be who you want to be at any point in your life.

I see. So, in my opinion, I respect homossexuality, but I don't agree with it, and I think it's not normal, it's commom, but not normal,because for me, it goes against the reproductive nature of the species. I'm aware that it happens on other species as well, but my sentence stays. Pay attention, I'm not saying it's wrong or right, just not normal. What do you think about it?

Firstly, we have to define what "normal" is. You know that other species, such as bonobo apes, lions, penguins, bats, and bears exhibit homosexuality. Since we understand this part, wouldn't it be applicable to state that this trait is Natural among communities? We have also demonstrated that this trait is expressed through several positions (though we haven't found the underlying gene for it). You may not agree with homosexuality, but you have to at least agree that it is naturally-occurring, thus normal.

We did in the past and present, and we still will in the future, but I still don't see how this relates to homosexuality.

With all due respect, no one denied the fact of it existing. But however it is still a choice. Yes, things may have affected that choice, but never the less it still is that. When you eat certain foods that aren't healthy for you, do you usually have a craving for those particular foods? (depending on who you are and what you like, if this is the case vice-versa) or do you crave things that aren't good for you? Your saliva glands starts to function over something that you like/desire. Choice? yes. What's not a choice is if you are allergic to that said food and can't eat it, or some type of consequence will take place. This is a different topic, but however it's under the same pretenses. Arousal? yes, choice with variables to lead to that choice? Most definitely.

 

[Rigel]

it's like that Nature vs. Nurture all over again.

We are far more intelligent than animals. Let us go kill another human because we're hungry

Getting offtopic as you're clueless on the matter.

Sexual brain organization is dependent on *** hormone and neurotransmitter levels occurring during critical developmental periods. The higher the androgen levels during brain organization, caused by genetic and/or environmental factors, the higher is the biological predisposition to bi- and homosexuality or even transsexualism in females and the lower it is in males.

Note: 'developmental periods' referring to biological/hormone changes , not social environment influencing the child's sexual preferences as you would probably interpret it.

Firstly, since you say "humans killing another human", you're referring to this as "cannibalism". A very large majority of many populations of animals do not partake in Cannibalism. This is "unnatural", while something completely different, homosexuality, is natural.

 

[HakuMomochi]

I honestly believe you're born either Gay or Straight. I also don't believe in Bi, but that's just my opinion.

lol and how is bi any different
