Sorry, but they ain’t born that way. If they were there would not be this flip flopping from male to female to both. Of course there is NO GENE because it’s a choice. There is no “choice” gene! Just like cheating on your spouse, lying, doing drugs, etc....there is no gene!
Everyone wants to blame their “differences” on something instead of taking responsibility! The drunk blames it on his Dad, the worrier on his Mom and so on. Gosh, just fess up that you have a problem and change it! Don’t force people to accept your “choices”. If you want to be gay, so be it...it’s your choice. But don’t expect me to endorse it or let you tell young kids it’s OK and lead them on to “be GAY”! Don’t FORCE society to accept your perverted desires....remember acceptance goes both ways.
BTW, I am not pointing this post directly at you...just in general.
Well, I am in the biosciences and have always believed that for male homosexuals, a very strong genetic component exists. Here's the reasoning:
--Some individuals evidence pre-homosexual traits very early on, e.g., some little boys play with dolls and not guns, they always want to perform, dress in mommy's clothes, etc
--Why, if it indeed were a choice, would any guy choose a lifestyle that marginalizes him, gets the tar beat out of him at times and just makes life tougher?
--Something that is SO important to the survival of a species, i.e., successful coupling with the opposite sex, how could nature (or God) leave that to chance?
--Humans are very visual-cue oriented when it comes to sex; it would be, I believe, an impossible task to talk a gay guy into being turned on by breasts and women's behinds as it would be to talk you or me into liking a guy's hairy butt
And there's more from biology, but I will spare you. As far as your point about controlling their urges, well, sex is a pretty strong urge and while some can no doubt control that aspect of their behavior, for many it would undoubtedly be tough.
And while I do beieve what I have said here, I in NO WAY support their collective political agenda (gay marriage, grade school gay education, etc.).
