Homosexuality choice, not choice?

Not choice and do your own research by checking to see how many gazillion times this has been asked.

*YAWN!*

You're right we can opt on not having sex at all or in the worst case have hetero sex just to sustain an image but that's the only decision here.

The instincts, feelings, guts won't change.

There are no solid researches on this all of them ended up inconclusive on both ways: the ones saying it's an option and the others saying it's innate.

There are some genetic researches though that indicates most gays have an specific combination of genes. What's not proved yet is why some "heteros" also have it but can't accept gay sex as an option.

If homosexuality was a choice, their wouldn't be teenagers being bullied because of being homosexual. I don't know about you, but I'm a teenager and I sure don't like being bullied. If it was a choice, don't you think those teens would have "chosen" to be straight? Think of all of the cons that come with being gay/lesbian... I don't think anybody wants to deal with that kind of stuff growing up. It's just like food. Either you like it or you don't. Think of a food you absolutely hate. Now let me ask you... Why don't you like it? You simply just don't, correct? Is that your fault? Can you change the way you feel about that food? I don't think so, not without being unhappy while eating it. It's just like homosexuality. You can't help it if you simply aren't a fan of the opposite sex. Now, I'm sure this won't PROVE anything to any of the thick headed people out there who don't support it and believe it's a choice, but I think I made myself pretty clear.

"You can't accept the feelings and the feelings towards others" This here is homosexuality. It makes you a homosexual

"but you can chose to have sex with the same gender." This here is sex, it makes you not a virgin anymore.

The answer is obvious no?

I think there is a sexuality spectrum. There is without a doubt people who are born either 100% straight, or 100% homosexual. But there is also people who are equally attracted to both sexes, and have relationships with men and woman. There are woman who have been attracted to men all their life, but then begin relationships with other women in middle age (perhaps more out of companionship than for sexual preferences). There are men who are for the most part gay, but enjoy sex with women sometimes, and woman who are straight than enjoy sex with other women from time to time. And there are people who always thought they were either gay or straight, and then met someone who they absolutely fell for and changed their sexual preference.

My point is there is no correct answer to your question - we are all people and we do not think / act / feel the same. Now that people do not have to suppress their sexuality, it is becoming apparent that cannot all be put into nice little categories with tidy little labels.

choice. you said it yourself, "you can choose who to have sex with." scientific studies can't point out if its truly genetic, or what "causes" homosexuality. so the only ones saying "i was born gay" are the ones who can only prove that being gay is genetic. some homosexuals don't consider it until they are about 20-21. scientific studies have shown that promiscuous sex is more common between gay men, where as the settling down and long term relationships is more common between gay women. which would make some sense, considering the fact that gay, or not, men have sex on the mind. commonly, women have more desire for family.

i don't pretend to know nor do i really care. the sexual orientation of others has no effect on me... and being a homosexual doesn't mean you have sex with the same gender, it means sexual desire or behavior directed toward the same sex. so maybe the act of having sex is a choice, but the same goes for heterosexuals. they aren't hetero because they have sex with the opposite gender, they are hetero because they are attracted to the opposite gender.

Not choice. It's kinda proven by thefact a lot of gays don't want to be gay, and would chose to be straight, but it's how they feel and they can't change that.

Homosexuality is as much a choice as heterosexuality.

Not a choice, born that way, proven. Even if it hasn't been proven, it's still not a choice..

It is not a choice. Any one that says different should tell us when exactly they chose to be straight.
