I mean that's what this is really about, right? If you convince yourself it's a choice, you now have full reign to make these people miserable.
Of course it wouldn't matter but the point is there is Scientific tests that lean towards the conclusion that Sexual orientation is genetic and environmental, most commonly found in twins, which by theory, the other 'twin' should become 'homosexual' like the other twin, if the theory is correct and DNA is fully passed onto each twin. -

I was watching Children of Men the other day and that got me thinking that they should make a movie where all the men either become gay or, if you want a longer history of it, are born gay and straight dudes eventually die outExcept for one.
The only tricky part would be whether to have the conflict be a bunch of gay dudes trying to kill him for some reason or a bunch of women trying to boink him since the men will no longer have anything to do with them.
Maybe it could be both, but it would have to be done in a tasteful and politically correct way.

Except for one.
That's a fantasy of mine.
Did you like Children of Men?
I'd give it 10/10. -

Pretty much. One of the most ridiculous things for me to hear/read is the argument that you choose your sexuality. Like I'm sure people would choose to be gay when that makes them ostracized/oppressed. They're indirectly saying people choose to be bullied and suicidal.
Aside from that I don't think you can choose to be straight either. It just happens based on what you see. I've never chosen my attractions if I did they would be a lot different. I would have fallen for the guy I used to date while I was in high school instead of after as that is when he asked me out. Being straight you're not ostracized but sometimes being a non model looking woman it is hard to be attracted to guys because a lot of them are visual. I think if I were to choose a sexuality I'd invent my own. It would be like one I could turn on and off like a light switch but that's not how it works because it's not a choice. I guess you could say there is a choice but only in how you react to how you already feel. You can choose to embrace your inner feelings and libido.

I can choose to be gay, but my penis can't.
I tried a long hard time to make it respond to the male form.
I thought I could beat nature if I kept a firm resolve and a stiff upper lip, but no matter how hard I tried to penetrate the problem I never reached the climax of success.
People who say others choose to be gay might think they can do it, but let's see them put their genitals where their mouth is. -

I have two theories
- The more logical reason:
Nature
A male in the womb exposed to too little testosterone / too much oestrogen has the odds stacked in favour of them being gay
A female in the womb exposed to too much testosterone / too little oestrogen has the odds stacked in favour of them being lesbian
Nurture
Should the male then be raised in a more feminine / yin dominant environment, they will probably end up being gay
Should the female then be raised in a more masculine / yang dominant environment, they will probably end up being lesbian
The more feminine / yin parent may be the father. Nature is why two brothers can grow up in the same household but only one ends up being gay. Most gay males are usually close to their mums, and have a poor or no relationship with their dads

Many experts thought of that and ruled that out.

They've ruled that out too.

- The real reason
Planet Earth is a school, and our whole life experience here is a game / test / education. It's a game with only one rule: The Golden Rule
A person can respond to homosexuality in one of three ways:
Negatively = fear / hate (judgement)
Neutrally = acceptance (non-judgement)
Positively = tolerance (judgement)
It is better to accept a person, than it is to tolerate them
