is sexuality a choice?

No, of course not, you can't control who you are attracted to, and that's just fine.

 

Because you were the last poster I read this thread in a moment of confusion as "is sexuality a rice"? :lol:

 

The Gay Agenda is not optional, damn it!

 

Nope it is not a choice…

 

I'm going to be the odd man out and say yes, I think there can be some choice to it. I certainly feel that way; I feel like I made a conscious effort to shift my attractions and it worked. And I think everyone in a similar position is too afraid to open up about it because they risk demonization from the queer community, and they risk being targeted by religious conservatives.

But I think for a percentage of people... larger than anyone is willing to admit... it is possible somewhat. For most, maybe not. For me, circumstances in my life caused me to gain perhaps a much deeper level of understanding and control over my biological attractions than average.

 

Or I think the fact that you are bisexual makes it slightly easier for you ? As a bisexual myself I totally could chose to be exclusively in ''straight'' relationships if I wanted to. Yes, I would miss and crave women at some point but a man could still perfectly satisfy me and I guess I wouldn't have to fear or face homophobia, but at the end of the day I am not straight, so why should I/we (bi people) 'repress' ourselves (unless we are in a country were homosexuality is a crime hardly punished of course) ? Plus, while this option may be 'easier' for us bisexuals, it's definitely not an option for lesbians or gay people who are only attracted to the same sex, sure they could force themselves into a straight relationship but they would live a very miserable closeted life.

To answer the topic, I am bisexual and I didn't chose it, but if I had the choice I would have picked just that (or maybe I would have been one of the few who would have picked to be a lesbian, who knows :icon_wink )

 

Hahahaha I wish it WAS a choice! Life would be much easier, no prejudice.

 

Of course it is! and it goes great with gravy! :lol:

 

I completely agree with you! I could also be in only heterosexual relationships, but why limit myself to just women?

 

Exactly! I like being bi-sexual I tend to think we have the best of both world even though we do have to face bi-phobia sometimes. I wouldn't pick any other sexuality if I could.

 

i mean i dont really know why.i think that you can basically program yourself to do anything though. i think by default probably its pathological or psychological in some way i don't really have much control over but i think like anything psycological there are probably places situations etc that trigger it or don't trigger it and to some extent i could probably control that.

 

You can choose to be into it in the same way you can choose to have fetoshes or choose to have sex. I think your more likley to have behavior paterns based on 100000 things but i think on spme levwl there are people who choose to explore things more then others.

 

Of course not. It's just a force of its own, like gravity. You can't explain why it is, you just like what you like.

 

Well for me that's not true.
Ive stopped liking things that ive felt like where unhealthy before.

 

One day while brushing my teeth, I decided that I'd like to be hated, have next to no accurate media representation, be constantly compared to stereotypes, have a drastically limited dating pool, and I thought, what better way to do it than choose to be gay!?

 

Hey guys, guess what? I worked in a genetics lab so let me put this debate to rest. There is legitimate scientific evidence that sexuality is a genetically linked trait. It's biological. You don't choose to be gay. That's stupid :bang: You don't choose who you're attracted to. You choose whether or not you act on it.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA you, sir, are hilarious.

 

No not at all, I doubt people would choose to be prejudiced and discriminated!

 

Yep! that just about sums it up!! (!) (!) (!) (!) (!)

 

You dont belive in free will then?
I mean it's genetic to some degree but we as people choose what we do.

That's a choice on some level.
