Is Homosexuality a Choice?

"You can't say gay couples shouldn't be married, after all, they are born that way." is one of the most common arguments for gay "marriage." The idea is if the public is convinced that homosexuality is innate and not a choice, then the public as a whole will become more accepting of homosexuality and gay marriage. However, this argument has no scientific support and indeed, neurology may provide an explanation of how homosexuality is indeed a choice.

If they are born that way, then it can be cured, perhaps genetic therapy. Or they can be identified and aborted. Ironically.

“Bisexuality” is a choice .

I guess you can be born that way.

[onedoug]

I think in most cases it is. YES.

If there is one person who has actually changed his or her orientation, then there is at least an element of choice. I think it may be genetic as in a predisposition, but as with alcoholics and others, there may well be those who have the predisposition and for some reason never “activate” it.

[Clint N. Suhks]

Apparently it is a learned behavior.

Pretty sure gays are born gay.

Because no man is going to *decide* to look at another man’s hairy butt and say “Man, I want that.”

The late comedian Freddie Prinze (Sr.) had a bit in his act back in the 1970s where he posited that being gay was not a choice. No heterosexual man would look at another man's furry "behind" and think ‘hmm, I want some of that.’

Some people have no choice:

"You can't say gay couples shouldn't be married, after all, they are born that way."

So by that same "reasoning", pedophiles shouldn't be denied young children to molest?

It doesn’t matter. It’s the acts that are the problem, and they are a choice.

Homoing is not a choice. It is a BAD choice.

Either you have control of your body or you don't.

It is a choice. It is an intentional misuse of design. The designer is not amused.
