Do you think you choose your sexual orientation?

[FlyingJesus]

Why would you have views that you don't think are right and yes latent homosexuality is a thing

[Kyle]

I love debates on here concerning sexuality or gender lmao one comment can turn 99% of the user base into a pack of rabid dogs!

'Control' over 'choice'; people claim to not be able to choose who they are attracted to but are able to control those desires if they wish. X

@bensoberserk; please read what I had posted before you posted.

Your post doesn't answer my questions. Let's put it like this: do you think any external factors could make you change your mind regarding what sexuality you want to belong to? And by doing so, would your attraction to the opposite sex all of a sudden be completely eliminated? Because by saying homosexuality is a choice, this is what you're telling gay people to do.

Well, who says everything you know is right? You only know when people tell you, or when you learn about it from either experience or from being informed by a person who has been through it.

Quite correct, and now you are being informed

And to @buttons; then how can you explain those who go from a married man/woman who goes like many years in a marriage and then one day end the marriage and turn gay/lesbian? Does that mean he had been lying the whole marriage to their spouse?

Or what about the person who thinks he/she is gay but then lives his whole life dating the opposite sex.

I am sorry if I sound like completely rude or misunderstanding, I don't intend on doing so.

And also if we go back to the title of this post its, "do you 'think' you choose your sexual orientation." Which I was stating.

sigh this isn't what you're getting
scenario number one - possibly lied about their sexuality. OR they thought they were straight, fell in love with the same sex, therefore fancy both sex or end up having a reference for the other. that doesn't make them a homosexual. bisexuality/pansexuality exist. choosing to date someone doesn't mean choosing a new sexuality.
scenario number two - think you're gay but date opposite sex still makes you gay? :S you're gay because you're attracted to the same sex. you don't become straight because you choose to date the opposite sex instead.

Oh I know. As soon as someone doesn't see the same view as someone else it becomes a battle... Life is life though.

i agree but are u straight? cause many of us who aren't don't like to be told it's a choice, otherwise we would choose not to be confused and bullied about our sexual orientation.

Personally I think everyone is born bi-sexual to a degree; but with a swing to either way.
I would say it's biological with a social aspect accentuating it - you are bisexual but are gay as that's what you feel - meaning this would give you an outcome of gay or straight etc.

I do believe that it's 'born this way' than 'gone this way' in my humble opinion, being a 'gay' man.

Yes I am straight.

Sorry that you've been bullied about that.
