+488 I was born gay, you were taught religion, amirite?

You may have grown up and decided that you enjoyed homosexual intercouse. But there is no genetic sequence to make anyone homosexual. It is a conscience choice of sexual preference. Therefore I see no benefit to humanity that homosexuality can provide. However this is also true with about 80 to 90% of the population. If we met in public I would treat you like everyone else. I'm not a bigot, i just have my beliefs.

Look, that is your opinion and that is perfectly fine, but this is MY opinion - If you're gay, it isn't your choice. Why would someone CHOOSE to be gay? Why would someone CHOOSE to have a harder life? A life where they are constantly made fun of? A life where they can never be treated the same and are, in fact, DISCRIMINATED against? Why would someone CHOOSE that?

I never said it made sense people. I said it is a choice. They enjoy the activities and feel that their pleasure is worth a life of degradation. I don't understand it either but there is no physical reason for anyone to be gay. None whatsoever. Therefore it is a choice. People say they were born that way to give themselves conviction that their way is right. I'm not saying it is right, but i'm saying they made that choice. What intelligent person would commit to a life where theres a greater than 50% chance that the other one will cheat on you and take half of your assets. Most women won't agree to a pre-nup. Therefore leading you to believe that they don't trust you, which means you can't trust them either. I'm not arguing to argue. I'm playing devil's advocate, it's called food for thought.

You can make that same argument for/against religion. There is no evidence it is real and no physical reason for it. By saying its somebodies choice to be homosexual is equivalent to saying people choose to believe in god for no good reason even though god doesn't exist. I believe that it isn't a choice. My gay friends have known since before puberty that they were gay. How can an 11 year old possibly make the decision to be gay? They can't.

What if someone is gay but has never participated in homosexual activity? They didn't make a choice based on how it felt. You can't choose your sexuality. Though there is no proof that it's genetic, there is proof that it's not necessarily a choice. By your logic, anyone who is celibate has no sexuality. So does that mean virgins who are attracted to the opposite sex are not straight?

When did you make the conscience decision to be heterosexual might I ask?

"What intelligent person would commit to a life where theres a greater than 50% chance that the other one will cheat on you and take half of your assets" Sexuality is inate and has been around for hundreds of thousands of years before money was invented. Throughout history homosexuality has been accepted in many diffrent cultures. And they were not disciminated against. Howcome across the world there is evidence of homosexuality dating back thousands of years? In cultures that had no contact with eachother? How did they know to be gay or that gay was a choice? It's inbuilt in some peoples brain, they were BORN that way.

dude, homosexuality is a chemical imbalance in the brain, not a choice.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

If i'm wrong i'm wrong, but if it's a chemical imbalance they should have a pill to fix it right?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Homosexuality is no longer referred to as a chemical imbalance. It's a legitimate sexuality and doesn't need to be "fixed."

Thank you shelbica, i had no clue. I was proving the other guy wrong. It simply came out wrong with the whole being fixed thing.

Not everyone religious is against homosexuality. That's one of the problems I have with my religion, Catholic. I believe that everyone is loved by God, no matter what. Not everyone is a Bible thumper, just keep that in mind.

I'd just like to say I'm religious and I agree with this post. I don't think that being taught something makes it wrong but we should but I definatly accept that being gay could very well be genetic and that we should love and respect evryone.

If Freud can blame it on subconscious I will too, you, were born straight.

It's not choosing it's an urge...did you choose to like th opposite gender? What you're saying implies that you/people are attracted to both genders. So are you sexually attracted to both genders? I know I am straight and I've never been attracted to the same gender (females).

by Anonymous 13 years ago

yes, I find some females attractive, but I don't want to have sex with them.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

You're right, just because you find some females sexually attractive doesn't necessarily mean you want to have sex with them, but that wasn't my question. I said sexually attrative, meaning that you do want to have sex with them. Seeing as you said you don't want to have sex with them I'm assuming you are straight and you wouldn't be able to choose to be gay.

It's a choice, but it's not a choice you choose to make.

God and the Universe held a group meeting with me. Be somewhat decent to the good aka the straight and despise berate and assist in the end of the vile, aka the homosexual. Particularly the narrow-minded and opposite-gender-acting homos. They're the worst of those disgusting cretins.

I'm bi, and I definitely did not choose it. I have had troubles with it and have tried not to be but it's not really something you can control.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I always see people posting comments on posts like these saying something like, my religion is against homosexuality but I will still love everyone. Christians are NEVER called to hate someone. We are to love everyone just as God does but that does not mean he loves all of our actions.

many years ago, wheh being gay was seen as shameful. people were gay anyways. why would they have chosen such a life of riducule(as it was bach then) when they could have just CHOSEN to not have that life. They went through it because it wasnt a choice. it wasnt a fad. they really felt that way. and how could a male have an errection to have sex with another male unless he was turned on by him. dont say that an errection can occour naturally because what are the odds of two males getting a wet-dream or something of the sort at the same time. I do feel that being bi is a choise more than being gay is. I dont really know though because im not bi. i would also like to mention im a strong Catholic/Christian so i have been taught religion. and i still feel this way. i believe god loves us all even though we have comitted sins. i would also like to reming those hateful christians that Gosiad most sins are equal so you not going to church last sunday is technically as bad as being gay.

Being bi isn't choice either. I always liked guys until I met my girlfriend. I didn't choose to fall for her, it just happened.

I'd like to add a verse from the bible that states "Let he among us without sin be the first to condemn." Just throwing that in there

by Anonymous 13 years ago

No one, and I don't care who you are, what your religion is, or your sexuality, no one knows what sexuality they are until they're adults, when they're mature enough and know themselves well enough to identify as gay, lesbian, bi, and yes, even straight. Teenagehood is a time to make mistakes, try new things, and experiment. This includes but is not limited to seeing if you are attracted to a person of whatever gender if doubt ever arises.
