Personally, I don't think it is. I mean, you can't help who you fall in love with, right?
I don't think so because the first ever person I like was a boy and I was way too young to decied who or what I liked. It was just how I felt.
Well, i belive that it is both sides to the story. Because some say that its a chemical thing. But i believe that it is a desire moreso a choice. It's physically what you are attrative to, and what you wanna do. So basically i say that it's really a two way street
its not a choice I'm bi-sexual i didn't choose to be this way.
One argument you could make is that, although you do have choice, the choices you make are determined by the way your brain has developed based on your own experiences. Following this argument, an all-knowing all-seeing entity would know your sexuality since before you were born (from the dawn of time for that matter) and would be the only thing capable of influencing it, being a force outside the tangible universe, so the only explanation for the large number of homosexuals in the world is that God is okay with homosexuality.
Another argument is, simply; "If being gay is a choice, so is being straight. Therefore, the only way one can argue 'being homosexual is a choice' is if they admit that they could, if they wanted to, be turned on by another man and have sex with that man (and the same for women).
So, just to get a little ironic, we could combine the two arguments by assuming that everyone that says "homosexuality is a choice" fully understands what this implies (as explained by my second argument). Assuming that tidbit of information and going along with my first argument (that proves there is in fact no choice involved in your sexuality) one could say that anyone trying to argue that being gay is a choice is actually gay themselves. Unfortunately this argument doesn't work at all because nobody that says being gay is a choice fully understands the weight of that statement.
I have heard a lot of people say that being gay is a choice, but no one has ever been able to give me a reason why, or, for that matter, refute any of the arguments I have made. If anyone thinks they have a legitimate argument for saying that being gay is a choice I would love to hear it.
It's not a choice. It's who they really are.
Being gay isn't a choice at all. Scientists say its in your genes. Honestly, you're born that way. It's like being born with brown hair or blue eyes. I am bisexual, and i know that i was born that way theres nothing i can do to change it so i embrace it. I am proud of who i am. which includes being bi. end of story.
well..this topic kinda frustrates me.. cuzz this brings it back to everyone against glbt ppl..
and yes it includes scientists.. ppl try and find excuses to why there is ppl that like the same gender.. well i am a lesbian. and honestly. i dont have no lesbian ppl in my family.. none in the history of my family. my family is a christian family and they dont condone it what so ever.. who some one wants to be with is all there choice. i dont think its in anyones genes.. thats juss retarted.. two ppl who come together is what they want to do.. and love is love.. gender is only body parts..
im sorry but i think thats all what it is.. i dislike when ppl come up with reasons why gay ppl are gay.. its stupid.. thats like goin up to a straight person and askin a straight person why they are straight..
i hate when i hear this question i mean come on now lets use our brians... it kills me how simple/close minded people can be!! of course being gay is NOT a choice!!! who would willingly choose that? there is so much unneeded hate that comes along with it, as the bible says GOD LOVES ALL HIS CHILDREN, gays are here (and here to stay). i guess its just going to take a while for people to realize this.... dont let anyone tell you being gay is a choice your are born this way and there is no shame in it. be proud of what you are weather that be gay, bi, straight, lesbian or transgender!!! you are who you are if others dont like it... to bad. :)
being gay or lesbian is a choice without a doubt i have nothing against gays lesbians bis' or anyhthing but i do NOT belive you are born gay i have dated a guy that only 3 weeks earlier was gay and was in a relatonship with a guy. God does love everyone but he made adam and eve man and woman if he wanted it to be man and man and woman and woman he would have made it that way for everyone go back in time this "being born gay" just surfaced like 20-30 years ago look back in time there were NO gays until lately and i personally think it is because of how corupt the youth and the entire world is getting my i used to be able to play out in my town for hours with no supervision and now i cant even let my nephew out in the front yard without being watched in the same town times have changed and are still changing and becoming more and more corupt i think that being gay is a choice and a munipulation of teenage minds and adult minds fathers leaving their families to be with a man mothers leaving fathers to be with women it ruins the children and the families how you can be married to a man and all of the sudden decide that you dont like men anymore and claim to be born a lesbian is honestly one of the dumbest things i have ever heard children thinking that they are gay younger is probably the cause of something that had happend when they were younger i dont have anything against gays and have gay family members but i believe it is a personal choice to be gay and yes i do think you should have rights because you are people and have worked hard for this and fully deserve it
I think being gay is more of a feeling that you can't describe.
beinq gay , bi-sexual or lesbian isnt a choice.
I have the most amazing fiancee in the world and I love him to pieces, but I still find women attractive. I'm bi-sexual and it wasn't a choice for me. There's nothing wrong with it though. Live and let live. You can't help who you fall in love with. If it happens, it happens. YAY LOVE!!!
You fall in love with whomever you fall in love with. Why should it matter that it's the same sex or not? Just because it's the same sex means tht it's a choice?
It is defiantly not a choice. I am not bashing any religion when I say this, I respect all of them, but when it comes to the topic of homosexuality, religion tends to cloud people's judgement.
From personal experience, my best friend knew she was gay when she was about 3. Before she even knew what that word meant, or the hate it would bring with it. She didn't make that choice, she just went with what was natural. Same for everyother person who is homosexual, or bisexual.
Another common misconception is "kissing someone of the same sex" is gay. No it isn't. People tend to expiriment, but that has nothing to do with their sexual orientation. Being homo/bisexual has to do with emotional and spiritual attraction, and not just physcial.
So people who say it is "crimes against nature" need to ask themselves if it really is. Nature vs. Nurture.
kindomlove- are you THAT fucking stupid? Seriously? There were no gays before 20-30 years old? Try doing some fucking research before you go around spouting random ignorance. Really. All throughout human history, since the begining of the human species, there have been accounts of homosexuality, intersex and transgender activity. It's also prevelent in the animal kingdom. Look it up for god sake.
Also, its a choice? Are you fucking kidding me? WHY ON EARTH would someone CHOOSE to be gay? Who would CHOOSE to face physical, emotion and sexual violence, be denied the right to marriage and/or adoption, be denied the right to see their loved one in the hospital because they "are not legally family" or other types of discrimination and intolerance? How many people have died or commited sucide because they were gay? They couldent change themselves any more than you can choose to be straight. Stop being such a close minded bigot and learn about the real world.
Also, men who leave their wives do so because they can no longer deny their own feelings. People like you are the reason people like them stay in the closet so long. People come out at different times in their lives and some people refuse to admit they are gay and try to force themselves into a heterosexual marriage but in the end, its no use because BEING GAY IS NO A CHOICE. If it was, those men would not being leaving their wife. No one just wakes up one morning and says, I feel like ruining my families lives and getting with a dude today. hmm I'll get a divorce, leave my children behind and go face some discrimination. wtf? honestly, you think thats how it happens? Because I can tell you I never would have CHOOSEN to be gay and I sure as FUCK did not wake up one morning and DECIDE to be lesbian. It seems like the only people who say its a choice are straight people. And the people who says its not are both GAY and STRAIGHT. So, whos right and whos wrong? Seems the majority of the population is because how can a straight person ever know if being gay is a choice? Unless they woke up one morning and said they wanted to be straight and just were. Cuz I'm sure thats how it happened right? =/// fucking stupid.
exactly
I dont think it is, and a lot of my gay friends have told me that they dont choose to be gay. Why would anyone choose to be something that is looked down upon by a lot of society? Why would they choose to like someone that they cant marry or have basic legal rights with?
Just a thougt...
I am gay and it has never been my choice. I just learned to live with it I guess. I have known this since I was young, and of course, being young I was very confused as to why my best friend always talked about liking specific girls and all and I can't think of a single girl I would like. Then as I grew older, got into high school, I realized that no matter how much I forced myself into liking girls, I couldn't but had a crush on my best friend and some other guys. I haven't acted upon it yet, and my best friend knows and says that he has other gay friends who feel the same way.
So its not a choice because I bet that if it were, no one would choose it.
Plus to the guy who said that there were no gays before 20-30 years ago, I think you haven't seen a lot of artwork from ancient times to now, art, stories, sculptures...all depicting homosexual activities. There were definitely gay people back then and there always will be.
I don't think being gay or bisexual is a choice at all.
I think that you are who you are and that's all.
You can't help who you are attracted to, or who you love.
Love is love.
I couldn't help that I fell in love with a female. I have been happy with her ever since. Once upon a time I told myself I wasn't a lesbian because of what the world thinks, but I choose not to hide the real me because love me or hate me it really doesn't matter.
They way i see it is that being gay really isnt a choice it comes naturally in life when you start findin the same gender as the person intresting like in a sexuality. Its what the other person feels about the same gender; Mostly it comes naturally.
Wow, no gays 20-30 years ago? http://www.suphawut.com/gvb/gayly/gay_history2.htm
Also, does that mean that the bible is not true? Because that is what you are saying. I'm pretty sure that was written before 20-30 years ago, and there is talk of being gay in it. I mean, you can't have a word without someone thinking of it, and someone wouldn't think of that without having the action within their mind or seeing the action take place...
Nope it's not a choice. i mean maybe for some people but I think that for those people they are confused. Most of the time when people "choose" to be gay they "change their mind" after. I have known i liked girls since i was like 5,i never really thought much about it when i was younger,i actually thought it was how everyone is.not until later in elementary did i find out its not how everyone is. I think the only reason people come out of the closet later in life is because they are coming to terms with who they are,and they are trying to find acceptance with those around them.

And the whole no gays 20-30 yrs ago is redicoulous. I mean seriously man? think. the rules back in the day were way stricter agaisnt gays.but there have been research that says that at least 2/3 of the human population is homosexual/bisesxual/transgendered. thats a big %.does it mean that everyone is open about it now?no but there are alot more open people,because human rights have been making a change for the better over the years. Its not like Hitler's times when he rounded up gays and killed them like the Jews.And its not the 20s when you were also killed for being gay. Its not that we didnt exist 20-30yrs ago,its that we werent open,for our safety
And there are plenty of us who still aren't open about it because we are in situations where it does not feel safe.
Just so you all know, my grandfather is gay, and he's going on...73? 74? Somewhere around there.
my mother is gay, she's going on 50.
my aunt is gay, she's got to be somewhere around 50. my goddess father it gay, he's over 30. my second cousin is gay, she's got to be 35.
I would ask you to re questioned the logic that they were gays 20 years ago.
Also, bringing up marrying animals is irrelevant, offensive, intolerant, bigoted and disgusting. Animals do not have the same legal standing as humans, nor do they have the ability to sign binding contracts, or give consent. Also, you do not see hundreds of thousands of people rallying behind the right to marry animals. It's a complete non-issue.
That argument is extremely tired, just trying to think of something a little more creative, please?
It's not a choice. You're born that way, just like you're born straight. You can't choose who you fall in love with, unless you're not accepting yourself. Love is blind. Gender isn't the issue.
i think it just happens .
you really cant help itt .
And why would anyone want to help it anyway(rhetorical question)? We should be proud!
its a choice. God made us to have sex with the opposite sex.
male+women= baby
not the
male+male or female+female...

Why is that disgusting? I like the same sex, and I am proud! So dose my mom! I find your bigotry to be disgusting! It is people like you that truly test my patience and tolerance! I have much to say to you, but out of respect, I will hold my tongue, and not stoop to your level.
Being gay is not disgusting, and a big myth also IS NOT A disease. Most gay people dont have a choice of being gay, and our society always looks down upon the minorites and everyone who is different. It is ok to be different, and the people who think otherwise cannot be different themselves and are most likely jealous of that fact
Being gay is NOT a choice. There is scietific eveindence that shows that gay men and straight women have the same sized brain and put out the same chemicals about who they are attracted too, and the same with lesbian women and straight men. And why would you choose to be hated by the world. Can you choose to be black, latin, or white? It's the same thing. Is it wrong for a black man or woman to love a white man or woman? Not anymore. Why cant the world just accept everyone for who they are???
Its not a choice at all. Its what they want to do, they live their life for theirself and nobody else. Being gay is not a crime at all, its what makes that person happy. Its nothing wrong with being gay as long as you are comfortable with it.
I urge you all to report ashlee92!
it's really easy, click the "report this page" button, right under her remarks, and copy and paste this into the "why are you reporting this page?" box:
"Open bigotry, homophobia, vulgar Language, Discrimination, Disrespect and cyber bullying!"
Of course, if you have anything to add, please, do so! We cannot allow this site to become a breeding ground for bigotry, and when someone proclaims that they are proud of their discrimination, there is no debating. We have to take some sort of action, and if we can bring this to the attention of do something, maybe they will be able to...well... do something about it! literally, it takes about 2 seconds. feel free to report all of her posts! And if you have anything to add to the list of reasons why her posts are offensive, feel free to post it below!
I come from a strict southern baptist home, and
I don't believe being gay is a choice. Like wise I don't believe being a heterosexual is a choice. I do believe you chose who you want to date, but not who you are attracted to. I do believe that one's sexuality isn't in stone just because you define as a lesbian doesn't mean you might not fall in love with a man, because once again you can't choose that. It is what it is. No whether you date them or not is up to you. I would just hope people don't limit there selves to love. I love personality first, gender comes second.
