Two things in particular I'm going to point to. A number of major studies have been done of animals. All the species studied had homosexual behavior -- and all the species that had pair bonds at all had homosexual pair bonding TO THE EXCLUSION OF MATING WITH THE OPPOSITE SEX IN HEAT. Explain how that is even possible as a choice for animals? (the best book in this particular field is probably Dr. Bruce Bagemihl's book "Biological Exuberance" from St. Martin's Press -- from its bibliography you can find many others, and you can easily find other studies that look at the same phenomena.)
2nd -- the Fruit-fly study. The results for fruit-flies can't be denied (link below). People are trying to say that just because it applies to fruit-flies it doesn't have to to people. Alright, while I accept that the genetic mechanism is much more complex among humans -- why on earth would something like homosexuality be completely genetic in simple species and not genetic at all in the most complex species? It makes no sense, particularly given that no gay person I know EVER remembers being attracted to a female. Bisexuals are attracted to both. Gays are only attracted to same sex. So -- how is that a choice? Isn't it just the opposite of what straight people feel? An inborn automatic response. Period.
Standing against science, common sense, and logic -- you have a bronze age book that people keep telling each other is divine, but which says the earth has corners (Isaiah 11:12), sits on pillars (I Samuel 2:8), and is on top of the water (Psalms 24:1-2). The book says beetles have 4 legs not 6 (Leviticus 11: 21-23) and states that rabbits chew cuds (which they do NOT) (Deuteronomy 14:7). Given that choice, despite the emotional benefits that I'm sure some people gain from believing that the bronze age book is correct on this, just like it is on the corners -- I'll go with the logic, science and common sense.

*yawn* this question has been asked heaps of times. I'm sorry if i sound arrogant, i'm just tired of seeing the same questions... so i'll copy and paste a previous answer I posted to the same question...
Are we born straight? As I understand it, we are all assumed to be straight right from the moment we fly out of the womb. Just the same way parents say he's gonna play football, or she's gonna be a model. All assumptions.
I chose to be gay. I was not born gay, then again I wasn't born straight. It has always been assumed I would be straight, marry a a wonderful lady and have beautiful children of my own. I guess society seems to thrust this idea of a "normal" life upon us. Afterall, at school we barely touch homosexuality in sex education. Why is that? Oh yes, to thrust upon us a heterosexual lifestyle. I wasn't trying to be rebellious or any such nonsence, but I chose to be gay because it made me happy. I knew I was when i was about 12 years old, but that's when I thought "hey, maybe there's more to life than what's being thrusted upon me". I'm gay and I would never look the other way. I am proud of who I am. People think that being gay is a big thing... it's not. it's just preference. Someone likeing one flavour of ice cream and another person liking a different flavour of ice cream. that's a big as it is.

To answer this question I am going to say why don't you search back to any random day and check out the answers for any of the other thousands of times this question has been asked... You people bore me, why cant you just let us be happy without questioning us. No one asks you if you were born straight or if it was a choice do they? I was born gay I chose to be open about it. End of story - no more no less get over it.

I think people are born gay. I'm not sure it would be easy to make someone who was gay go straight. I read a story about a man who was gay, but tried to pretend he was straight so he could be accepted by his christian friends and family. But in the end, he just revealed that he was gay because he realized he couldnt be straight.
Some people cant stand being straight, and those are the ones i think really prove that people are born gay.

I am certain that its something that can not be chosen. I'm not saying one is born into it, but one can not choose it on any level it is something that you can relate to heterosexuality. It's just the way it is. Much like heterosexual men grow up knowing they like women I grew up KNOWing I liked men. I am still a virgin in all senses of the word and I know I love men in a way I will never be able to love a woman. Many of my friends have asked me how do I know I am gay if I've never had sex with a woman. I reply the same way they knew before they had sex with women. I wouldn't have gone through the trouble of coming out and being beat up, ridiculed, spit on, kicked taunted, and disowned by my once family and friends if it was something I knew I had control of, something that I could change to get things to the way it used to be. I didn't just decide to lose everything to say I'm gay and get absolutely nothing out of, and certainly not to satisfy any lust because I haven't even done anything after 20 years...

Born Gay.If your Not Gay could anything in this world make you be with your own sex.Most straight people claim they would die first so If it was a choice why would people want to have it more difficult than they had to in life.Its the way we were born

Some people are born gay, and some people of course choose to live that way because of something that happened in their life or w/e. But there are definitely people born gay, like ppl who've known since they were five. And then there's those who don't really find out until later in life, and maybe it was there but they never truly realized it.

I was born gay(but I finally acknowledged it). End of story. Yes, I've had kids with a man and had relationships with men, but I couldn't hide the fact that I was attracted to women. I've been through some rough times, but I love who I am, and it's made me stronger.

Both.
Some seem predestined. I've talked with some who say they knew by age 4 or 5 what they were.
Others can't make it in the straight world so they go gay just to get gratification. That is naughty!

It's your choice You see this is the nature - it's is Normal that a men is attracted to women and viceversa... it's something normal it's the nature -. humans came with the naturally of being attracted (men-women) but there must be something that misled the naturality an event that obstruct what God created and here is something that the people don't understand this is something spiritual - gay and lesbian they cannot see it -they live in their world - the only person who can change the way they see is thru Jesus. so they can be delivered..
