If you believe Homosexuality is a Choice, then think about this Truth for a bit and let me know what you think...
If someone say's homosexuality is a Choice, then they MUST be attracted equally to BOTH males and Females, since they CHOSE one of the two by their own words. Therefore if one believes Homosexuality is a Choice, then they must be bisexual.

Interesting concept. I've never thought of it that way before.
Nah, I don't think it's a choice. I don't recall ever choosing to be heterosexual as a child. Is this any different?
Hahaha! It seems to me about as simple as you just explained it!
Good concept I must admit. It might be relevant in some cases, but I don't think when people choose who they are or who they want to be, they don't view it like that? I've got no idea, it's such a touchy subject ^^
I'm not sure if I follow you?
You know, it's funny how many gay and bi people are closed-minded.
Personally, I don't know why so many boys and girls straddling the fence are against gay marriage. I guess they don't think they're gay enough to ever want to marry.
All I can say on the choice issue is that I don't know for sure, and certainly can't speak for anyone else, but I've NEVER EVER EVER been attracted to girls. It wasn't a choice...they just didn't (and don't) turn me on.
See, you're a prime example. I can't explain it either, but I do believe that sexuality is somehow inborn, so much a part of who we are that it's unchangeable.
I wish it could be scientifically proven 100%. Then there wouldn't be any argument as to whether this is an issue of civil rights.
You forgot to mention the "Straight" people who are closed minded and against people marrying too! :-)
i agree
its not a choice if it were then why would so many have chosen to live a life where their parents and society outcasted them not long ago? i believe it is a natural thing each person is different so it would make sence that the way they feel would also be that way.
you cant chose who you love and who you are attracted to.
EXACTLY. I've said the same thing before. Great minds think alike, eh? ;)
I know there are some people who think it is a choice. I really wonder what they think. (Or How they think!)
you know... i hear questions like this all the time, im not sure if its because my mom and my family like probing my brain, or they're just homophobs that try to make me feel bad. no im not calling you a homophob, im referring to my family. well ill be straight out, its not like its a choice. when i hear choice it makes me feel like obligated to go with THAT choice. to me, its like what you feel. its just something you feel. i mean yeah you can choose to like some sex maybe because the parents dont agree so they along to make their parents life instead of theirs. or maybe they just want to be cool because its "in" (which is REALLY) dumb. to me its a feeling. an attraction. an those bisexuals that go against gay marriage are dumb, i mean its like they're shooting their own foot. thats me.
I guess the bisexuals I am referring to are the closet ones, that call themselves "Straight" and would never admit to having sexual attraction to the same sex. And then to "PROVE" how straight they are, they take up homophobia. THOSE are the people that I am questioning.
I think there are some "fake" gays that just like to shock people or are confused because other people tell them they are gay because they are feminine or masculine. But, I think the true gays are honestly attracted to the same sex. They don't try to be. It only makes their lives harder, if anything. I think most bi-sexuals are confused too. But, some may truly like both sexes. I'm really not sure about sexuality anymore.
I don't think homosexuality is a choice. I think it's something that you are born with it. For people who say that being is a choice, doesn't always mean that they are bisexuals. It's just their belifs and their views on this issue. So, I don't know if i follow you...
Ah! Yes! And if it IS their "belief" or "View" that it is a CHOICE, then they therefore CHOSE to be one or the other since they are both equal and therefore a CHOICE, which is the DEFINITION of BISEXUALITY. Do you see now why it CANT be just a "Belief" if they don't actually Believe it!? So are you saying the person that says it is a choice is just Lying then?
Why won't any of the seemingly many "holy pundits" weigh in? They are the ones against gay marriage and think it's a choice.
I don't think homosexuality is a choice. As hard as I may try, I don't think I may get attracted to someone of my gender. My Psy. teacher says that we are all "homosexual" to an extent, it's a matter of degree. I like your example, so simple
Yes, there are many people who have degrees of homosexuality but are pressured by society to never act on it.
It depends on the cut of the man. Am i gay? no. Have I thought about Brad Pitt in a spedo? Yes. The difference is, I know that I will go to hell if I sleep with Brad, or any man for that matter, which is why i beleive everyone should abstain from homosexual activities, tight-fitting clothes, and rainbows altogether.
Thanks For writing Man! I was wondering anyway! So here you are a bisexual guy, that is unable to live life as he wants and hates himself for who he is because of religious beliefs. I'm sorry you have a belief that causes you so much pain and suffering. :-(
Sarcasm?
No, do you even know what the defination of homosexuality is? Homosexuality a sexual attraction to (or sexual relations with) persons of the same sex. It's not really a choice, it's just how people feel about other people. and you don't have any choice on who you are attracted to or who you love. it's just how the human mind works.
"Goodnight, Goodnight, parting is such sweet sorrow..."
I believe oh hell who cares!
Homosexuality is not a choice. Its there in you, if your a girl/boy and you see another girl/boy, she's/he's cute smart and beautiful and you feel like you want to love her, its not a choice.
I never recalled choosing to be in love with a girl. I love em' its just me.
And these people nowadays who are gay one day and the next they're straight, but the next week bi give the reality a bad name. You make the actual homosexuals look bad.
Try going through different types of sexual orientations and not taking it as a fad.
It isn't a choice, or for worse a shoe you can put on and off! Its in our lives, it makes our lives difficult, and these homophobes make it worse.
We are judge, put down, and underestimated, why? Because the think its all a choice.
We feel obligated to feel this way because our FEELINGS are uncontrollable.

I think everyone, subconciously is attracted to both male and female bc the human body is beautiful. It is. I dont think one can choose which desires are stronger, just like one cant choose a natural hair color. People who think its a choice are obnoxious, ignorant sons of bitches and need to be kicked in the ass.
Right on! But I do think some people are completely hetero or homosexual, just like some people are totally left or totally right handed.

Now, I decided a couple days ago that it was rude to insult someone elses beliefs, but I said NOTHING About insulting @$$Holes who SPAM People with their $HIT. I'm not even going to click on the link posted above because it is probably a link to a lousy amature porn site or a computer virus or some crap... But, if someone knows what Home Equity Line of Credit is, Please let us know how to ruin their business for spamming people with their crap.
I think that if you think that homosexuality is a choice, it oesn't nessacarily mean that you are bi. I think that people should be able to love whoever they wish, I just don't really want to see people making out on the street. I am not against it though, but I am straight. Does it really matter that much who you love? And i agree with the fact that everyone could be attracted to both, but it doesn't meant that they are going to have intercourse because of it. I compliment girls if I think that they look good, but I am not going to make a move on them. It is polite to compliment people and perfectly normal to be 'attracted' to both male and female.
I agree that it doesn't matter who someone is attracted to. People are all different and all have different likes and dislikes. As far as public displays of affection... I have to agree. I really don't need to see some 78 year old guy burrying his face into his morbidly obese wife's vagina in the middle of the sidewalk while I'm trying to order a roast beef sandwitch from the street vendor.
If someone believes that it is a choice, they MUST be bi. Because they believe that they CHOSE one or the other and either is a possibility for that person. Since they are attracted to both males and females sexually, by definition they are Bisexual.
I agree with the OP. I have always thought that people who say that sexual orientation is a "choice" tend to be bisexuals who don't understand that not everyone is bisexual.
They may have had a crush on a male and then a female and got turned on fantasizing about sex with females sometimes and males other times and said, "Hmmm, I can't decide which one I like better, but I'll have to choose."
I know I had no choice (I'm gay) and my brother knows he had no choice (he's straight).
Really, bisexuals have no choice in their sexual orientation either, but at least they have the luxury of choosing a fulfilling relationship with either a male or a female. Straight and gay people both don't have that luxury, and some people just don't seem to get that the whole world is not naturally attracted to both sexes.
Michael Glatze who decided at the age of 13 that he
was gay and eventually founded Young Gay America, a nonprofit
media outreach project. Through a series of incidents,
however, Glatze slowly began to realize that he was not gay at
all but was dealing with fears about his own masculinity. He
has since rejected his gay identity.
(this is from an enterview)
Michael Glatze: Well, I think maybe the first thing that comes to mind is just that I
began noticing the nature of my desires, and the fact that I was able to change them.
J.N. That’s an interesting phrase: “the nature of desire.”
M.G. Although when I look back on my life in the gay community, there was always a
sense that “You don’t question your same-sex desires.”
J.N. Yes. That’s a very big rule in the gay community.
M.G. Right. In fact -- it’s rule number one.
J.N. Rule number one: “Don’t ask why.” People “just are.” No questions about why.
M.G. As soon as you join the club, that’s the first rule. You can go ahead and examine
any other thing’s cause, except for homosexuality.
J.N. I can explore the foundations of my alcoholism, my overeating, my depression--
but not my homosexuality.
M.G. Right. And ironically, it’s even OK for straights to question their heterosexuality.

Sorry about the triple post
Definitely an interesting concept. Maybe you should post this to one of the more recents that decided that all gay people are going to flip-flop on their sexuality.
I like the fact that so many people "love the Greek gods," yet if they knew Dionysus was pansexual or that most ancient Greeks were bisexual in their limited concept of gender identity, they likely wouldn't be so supportive of Athena and Zeus. Not to mention the incest and rape all the god tales have, but that's another story.
