Gay: Choice or genetics?

[Sir Sacrifyx]

What say you?

 

['Gear]

Some of the gay guys I've seen seem to have choice genetics.

But it should be backwards compatible heterosexual right?

I feel like I choose to be straight. Would that be what genetic predisposition feels like?

I reject the notion that another person's orientation is something I need to label or concern myself with, provided it doesn't interfere with the health and well-being of those I choose to protect. I would imagine the truth, like in most absolutes, is more a combination of causal factors.
Which aspect of homosexuality are we trying to determine as such? Strictly the sexual stuff? The strong desire for showtunes and well-decorated homes? An addiction to flannel and Birkenstocks as a fashion ensemble?

Don't we have a gay guy we can ask?

neither.

It's upbringing and environment during early childhood/school, which is neither genes nor choice.

I'm more inclined towards choice, personally. Out of curiosity though, what kind of early childhood experiences would drive someone gay in your opinion?

Homosexuality is a result of neither choice nor genetics. It has to do with how the brain is wired.

 

['Gear]

What are you talking about? I chose to be heterosexual.

It's irresponsible to be throwing around all this so-called science.

 

[Daystrom]

It's biological, not genetic. One is defintely born gay or straight (i.e. ''nature'') how one likes it that way is about something else.("nuture").

 

[jack]

Maybe it's biological for you...

 

[Dr. Robustus]

in Vap's case it was 'choice'


not his choice, his father's choice.

but still someone's choice
