Only retarded neo-con fucktards(example: Herman Cain) believe homosexuality is a choice. The intelligent part of America believes it is not a choice.

Sexuality is a choice to begin with.

Steel your mind and you can go a lifetime without it. I'm sure at least some priests do it.

At first I thought it was indeed a choice (I was raised Catholic) - but after taking some psychology classes I realized it isn't a choice, nor is it genetic (if it was genetic, it would have died out long ago). Basically, the amount of testosterone (among other hormones) you receive in the womb is the primary factor in determining sexual orientation and gender identity.

Yes, homosexuality is a choice, as is being straight. The only people who would say any different are those braindead, fucko Americans that have feel the need to make everyone who isn't a straight, white male feel like a special snowflake.

It's been proven to be linked to genetics. Combined with all the evidence of homosexual behaviour in other primates it's pretty fucking obvious that homosexuality is a completely normal thing within humans and primates at large.

I suppose the most interesting thing is people tend to decide which sex they wanna go for and stick with that - where in primates they'll basically use sex and grooming as a gesture of bonding (with everyone).

Which makes sense as the genes that increase homosexual behaviour would increase group stability and would in actual fact be a positive thing - as long as it doesn't impede their desire to pursue sex with females and lower their chances to pass on their DNA.

i dont think a person can be purely homosexual or heterosexual. some people have more homosexual urges than others but they arnt homosexual until they made the choice to act on those urges.

I believe its not a choice

I DIDN'T CHOOSE TO BE STRAIGHT!!

But I don't want to be gay, so I'm going to remain straight.

USA
Yes and no. In some cases it can be clear that an outside stimuli has affected a person's sexuality (e.g. I know of a guy who's mother abandoned him which led to his general misogyny and homosexuality), but in other cases it's just natural and preference.
Regardless though, I don't see whether or not it's a choice really matters, everyone should have the right to marry whomever they choose.

Bump.

I don't think it is, but who cares? It doesn't hurt anybody.

Heterosexuals don't get AIDS, right?

If they wash their genitals often, they are immune.

Of course it's not a choice. Whoever says otherwise is either extremely uneducated or plain brain-dead.

You really believe that, don't you? You and Jacob Zuma.

2. Deciding to fuck a man is definitely a choice

>Deciding to fuck a man is definitely a choice
But people don't choice their sexual orientation.

my problem with this debate is the logic that we must accept homosexuals if in fact homosexuality is a hereditary trait.

if this is the case, one could argue that pedophilia is no different and equally justifiable. it is a sexual desire of the individual which that have not chosen, but by which they are strongly affected.

we are born with the desire to shit in our pants, but social constructions create a strong enough taboo against such actions that we abstain from shitting ourselves. why is it so wrong to maintain that taboo on homosexuality, a trait which likewise does nothing to benefit our species?

Sweden
I believe it is a product of the environment more than anything. People have different tastes because we are different. I don't believe someone just thought to themselves "I'm now going to find men attractive" and did so.

>>4453713
Shitting yourself is not the same as loving another person. You're comparing apples and oranges. Pedophilia also hurts people (the victims). The only thing homosexuality hurts is people's "morals and values" as they believe they have a right to be offended.

Do you believe pedophilia is a choice?

>>4453713
>if this is the case, one could argue that pedophilia is no different and equally justifiable.

In fact, pedophilia really is just a sexual orientation. But while homosexuals can consent, kiddies can't. So pedophilia is no different but not justifiable and that's the difference. No sense in damning homosexuality for the reasons societies ban pedophilia.

>>4453744
There is no evidence which suggests that pedophilia hurts someone. Pedophilia is a state of mind - sexual attraction.
A person who acts on such desires is a weak-willed individual but he would be termed a child molester. Big difference.

-

Yes and No.

I believe some are really born gay (they have a brain similar to a woman's) but some do turn gay after experiencing gay sex (if they didn't, they would have remained straight).

I'm not a troll, this is just an observation

It isn't a choice
And it certainly isn't genetic

>>4453821
Forgot to mention I think it's one of nature's mistakes similar to a malformed or retarded child.

>>4453769
>But while homosexuals can consent, kiddies can't.

Here's where your argument falls. Yes, kiddies can.

American
Whether or not it is "a choice" is largely a semantic argument and is totally irrelevant. Homos should be allowed to homo all they want, either way.

>>4453864
kiddies can, but they have no sense of what sexuality is since their genitals are not matured.

>>4453864
You're dad seems like a pretty cool dude.

Scotland & America

I didn't ask for GID

i view homosexuality as some kind of fetish, the same category as foot fetishes and beastiality

Probably not a choice, but rather a result of both genetic and social factors that intervene in a complicated manner. I do however think that there is a large part of people that could become attracted to the same sex if they just put alot of will into it.

USA

It may not be something you are born with necessarily but it is not something you can really change. So answer is no.

US of A

Men mostly no

WOMEN yes.. most lesbians have father issues or male issues.. I.E. "I just find women attractive".. dates the hugest bull-dyke you have ever seen.

It does not matter to me whether it is a choice or not; all it means is more girls for me.
