To all you straight folks....were you born heterosexual or is it a choice?
So please tell me. We're all you straight people born heterosexual or did you choose to be that way? Please tell me the time you made the decision to be straight and not gay. Just answer the question and skip all the spin.... thanks.
akpiolitguy, you did NOT answer the question. Again, the question is, were you BORN heterosexual or did you CHOOSE to be that way? And by the way, sexuality is NOT a behavior.
Billy, are you saying that you have desires for men and you choose NOT to act on them? Do you force yourself to have realtionships with women...if so then it's NOT a natural desire.

It's a choice- it just happens to be a very easy one to make because it goes along with my desires. It's a choice for you too- it's just a very difficult one because it goes against your natural desires. But still- a choice either way.
--------------------------------------------
So you have entertained sexual thoughts on men, huh? But chose not to act on them....interesting.
whether or not you choose to act on your sexual albeit very deviant homosexual behavior is a CHOICE. Whether heterosexual or homosexual doesn't matter. Acting on your desires is always a CHOICE!

Bull.
Starone:
Your situations are total crap. I grew up without a father in my life. But I am as straight as they come. My best friend was molested when she was a child....straight.
Need anything else? It's not a choice, you are born that way. Why would anyone choose to be homosexual hjaving facing people like you and all the other repressed homosexuals scremaing that its a choice? No wonder people keep themselves in the closet.
Your hypocrisy is astounding. You readily admit that being heterosexual is being born that wya, but being homosexual isnt. You actually believe that bull that its some sort of mental disorder. Believe me, I would much prefer to put my life in my homosexual friends and family members than in people llike you.

I was born heterosexual just like you and everyone else.
If you are homosexual it is because you choose to be that way.
Homosexual people are that way because of some environmental circumstance. Some situations include but are not limited to:
1) being sexually violated as a young child
2) experimented with homosexual behavior, liked it and became addicted to it.
3) for a boy:
the absence of a father or
feels rejected by their father; looks to other men to meet
their need for accepatance but equates sex with
acceptance
4) hurt in a heterosexual relationship and turn to a homosexual relationship to meet sexual needs
5) was confused in their feelings for people of the same sex and was told that they were gay and should pursue that direction
6) uncomfortable with the opposite sex and chose to go with the same sex to fulfil sexual desires
7) feels rejected by the opposite sex and turns to the same sex to fulfil sexual desires.
There are many, many other reasons. The dynamics of human relationships and why we do what we do are very complex. There is no simple explanation as to why we think the way we do and why we make the choices we make.
Be assured of this, every experience we have in life, whether it be good or bad, plays a role in how we choose the things we do.

Sizzling Fajita:
I didn't say that everyone who has had some bad experience in life turned out to be a homosexual. Not everyone responds to a bad situation the same way. Homosexual people who have gotten counseling have been able to trace the beginning of their homosexual persuasion to at least one or more of the above reasons or for another reason that wasn't mentioned.

You may be homosexual now but you were not when you were born. You were hetersexual! You may have goggie eyes for other males but there are definetly past and present circumstantial experience(s) that control your lust for men. You are probably blocking them out because you can't deal with them emotionally or don't know how to. The little boy inside of you has been wounded and is crying. It is sad that he isn't being heard.

I was born straight. I tried to be gay but I couldn't fit into the tight shirts. Also, I'm ugly, opinionated and repulsive which appeals more to women than to other men.

I have no idea... like, I've thought about being a lesbian, but then I thought it was sinful.. and then I thought that I really love boys so there's no way. I'm still really confused, but I just want to be straight because umm... I don't know. Being gay, lesbian, or straight has no explanation.

Always this way. Guys are just gross, I could never want to do things sexual with them.
But I don't like doing much of anything else but sex with girls....go figure.

I didn't have to make a choice. I've just always been attracted to boys. I can't help it.
