Do আপনি believe people are born gay অথবা do they choose it?

One of my best বন্ধু is gay but was raised to be straight all his life, till he chose to try being gay and realised that was what he was meant to be. And it got me thinking, lots of people say that আপনি are born gay, others say that আপনি choose to be gay. I was wondering what are your thoughts on this topic.

আপনি people are wrong, they are born gay, they don't choose it. Homosexuality has nothing to do with reproducing. আপনি are either gay অথবা আপনি aren't, it's not a choice, just like being straight isn't a choice. It's not like straightening your hair অথবা buying a pair of jeans, those are choices but choosing to be gay? আপনি can't, not every person who is gay chooses to be gay, it's just really something they are born with. But don't realize it until they realize that they are gay.

I agree. It took me a while to realize that I was bisexual, and it wasn't a choice. It took a lot of thought on if I truly was attracted to females and males. I didn't make myself attracted to both; it was something I discovered.

I don't believe that anyone is born with a sexuality, I think it develops. আপনি know that 95% of the brain develops from birth to the age of 5, right? Sexuality, in my opinion, is developed. If আপনি are straight, it developed. If আপনি are gay, it developed.

Just my opinion on things, please no hate.

It's nice to see someone who has a different logical opinion on all of this, and it is true that the majority of the brain develops in that critical time period, but there are lots of innate responses and abilities শিশুরা are born with. The hormones that the woman gives the fetus also plays a huge role in how they develop sexually, so this might have something to do with it. No one can prove অথবা disprove homosexuality as a gene অথবা inherited feature, but it could deal with hormones and personality types as well as environment. But in the end no one can choose who they love, and it's okay to love. We need আরো of it in this world.

True, I don't think that there is anything wrong with not being straight. Everyone is different, and being in প্রণয় is a beautiful thing. Being a boy অথবা girl has nothing to do with it. But I still strongly believe that either a) there is no such thing as homosexuality/heterosexuality অথবা b) it develops. I think we all have someone we would go straight অথবা gay for, we just probably will never see অথবা meet them. Maybe we are all bisexual.

'Raised straight' as was I. As was just about everyone else in the world, and yet, homosexual people still exist, still come out, still discover what they like every day. Behaviorism is rampant in the USA(I don't know if that's where আপনি are), so the majority of people think that hetero/homosexualities are 'molded' into the children of this country.

Well, if that were true, all kids in the US would be straight as 99% of everything we see is hetero based nowadays. But people are identifying as gay DESPITE everything straight around them. Is it innate? Is it how they were raised? Is it a developmental process?

Maybe. But someone has to provide proof of these 'choices' through extensive research. No child(except for a very few outliers) before the age of 8 can identify as anything, developmentally they are not interested in anyone, they are just exploring themselves at this stage, just learning about sexual things. During adolescence though, people are exploring lots of things about themselves and going through a storm of hormonal changes and increases, sexuality is something that might not be set in stone until after the brain has fully developed, and that is in the early to late 20's for most people.

'If their brains aren't fully developed that must mean they 'choose' to be gay during their teens!'

Not really, hormones do lots of involuntary things to teens, like menstrual cycles and যেভাবে খুশী erections. Sexual hormones can increase sexual drive, and that isn't a choice. It's a choice to have sex with someone, but not to be sexually attracted to them.

So your friend is experimenting, and he will know better than anyone else if he is gay অথবা not.

We had a really cool assembly at school that the GSA (Gay/straight alligence club) made for the freshman class. It was very, VERY, depressing, since a lot of kids talked about how they self harmed, how they were bullied in Middle School, and how they were kicked out of their house for coming out. It was sad, but they seemed so happy about themselves now that it made me happy! :) It was a really big presetation, and everywhere in the school, every teacher has an "IT GETS BETTER" sticker :) there is quite a population of এলজিবিটি গোষ্ঠী in my school, which is cool

Okay, so আপনি can choose to be gay and completely devote yourself to someone of the same sex, go ahead, just copmpletely প্রণয় someone unconditionally right now if it is a choice আপনি should be able to do this without any problems. If আপনি are sexually attracted to a person of the opposite sex আপনি should also be able to completely be sexually attracted to someone of the same sex. Yes, yes, choose to be gay. It's just THAT easy.

No, not everyone is born normal. There are ALWAYS outliers for EVERYTHING. Got that? That is a FACT. Now, homosexuality was not proven অথবা disproven to be a mental illness দ্বারা psychiatric means. It was voted on. There is no proof as to if homosexuality is normal অথবা not, the same way as there is no proof that ADHD exists. আপনি want to talk about psychology/psychiatry with a Psych major? Okay, go ahead. The DSM is crap. And that theory that 'bad things happened to make আপনি gay' has little to প্রদর্শনী for evidence, অথবা even research.

I think people either are born gay অথবা become gay (but that doesn't mean they choose it). Either they are born gay and from the moment they felt feelings of attraction to anyone it was to someone of the same gender, অথবা over a period of time their sexuality changes as they go through puberty. For example, I have a friend who thought she was straight when we were fifteen (and fancied this guy a lot), came out as bi when we were sixteen and then a couple months later ব্যক্ত she was a lesbian. It definitely isn't a choice though.

'or over a period of time their sexuality changes as they go through puberty' HORMONES! Yes! They influence lots of things concerning sexuality and sexual desire. There is no denying that, it is a fact that hormones influence sexual things. Good answer!

Because not every gay is happy with life, are they?
If they're not then it means they are born this way.

Really, i'm unsure.

Being bisexual, i believe it's more-so something আপনি naturally develop.
it's not something আপনি can just formally decide-
আপনি can't just decide who আপনি fall in প্রণয় with, now can you? no.
and, to everyone here talking about reproduction;
Stop.
being gay/lesbian/bisexual has nothing to do with whether অথবা not the person wants to have children.
Wanting to have/not have children is a choice, your sexuality has really nothing to do with that, other than the fact that আপনি wouldn't be able to biologically have children together. (unless of course আপনি went to a sperm bank, but that only applies to a lesbian couple, who could actually have that option. otherwise, আপনি could adopt a child.)

So, no. i don't really believe it's a choice, but a mere adaption/natural attraction.

আপনি are born with it. People cannot choose their sexuality, but some might be not sure about their own sexual preferences দ্বারা long time....

I bet to homosexual people it's hard when they realize their orientation, because they are afraid of reaction of family, বন্ধু and intolerant society. Sometimes it's hard even to themselves. It's not a choice, when আপনি wake up one দিন and think: "Since now I will be gay, it seems to be cool"

I don't think anyone is born gay but they certainly don't choose to be gay.I mean,falling in প্রণয় with someone isn't something আপনি can control,you don't choose who আপনি fall for.But I also don't believe আপনি can be born gay;I think আপনি realize you're gay later on in your life like in your adolescent years.

Sexuality isn't something আপনি can simply "choose". For all of আপনি out there who say so, can আপনি "choose" who you're sexually attracted to any time আপনি feel like it? I highly doubt it. It's something your born with, but আপনি don't realize it until later.

I think they are born gay. It's not choice, it's who they are. Some people are in denial, অথবা force themselves to প্রণয় the other sex when they actually don't প্রণয় them because society dictates it that way.

If I could choose a sexuality right now, I'd go completely homosexual. I have reasons, but its kinda hard to avoid attraction with women.
