could you set your mind to think of people of the same sex in a loving way for the next five minutes? I have had people tell me they won't because it is "immoral" but frankly, I know I can't do it, and if you aren't gay, then you probably can't either. This would tell us that it isn't a choice.

Bisexuals are just greedy.

Disgusting, I made it thru about two seconds of man-man sex before I had to stop.

Homosexuality is an acquired taste. The normal revulsion that most people have toward it stops them participating in it. My observation is that a lot of things that revolt people at first, become a source of gratification after sufficient exposure. Some examples that I can think of are : cigarettes, whiskey and black coffee. How many people do you know that really enjoyed these things the first time they tried them?

The question is, why do we continue to expose ourselves to something that we don't enjoy? When I was young, I could never figure out why my friends began smoking. I could see it was detrimental to health, it cost a lot of money, and the taste was terrible. Apparently, it has something to do with the fact that most people think that everybody else knows more than they do. If other people are smoking these things, they must be good. Eventually, these people acquire a taste for them, and become addicted to them.

Prison provides a good illustration of my theory. There is a lot of homosexual activity in prison. Now, what could explain that? Are there that many homosexual criminals? A more likely answer is that, given the lack of conventional sex partners, many prisoners improvise. They obviously weren't born that way. They made a choice.

Case closed.

I can. I'm not gay. But, you know she would have to be super hot!

You know, I know gay men, and they say they would have sex with a really hot girl. Some are very flirtatious with girls. Having sex with men is just like a habit. Some gay men and women are married having heterosexual sex for YEARS, decades! Before they start having sex exclusively with the same sex. Some go right back again to heterosexuality: look at Anne Heiche.
You can't catagorize ALL gays. People turn to a homosexual lifestyle for all different reasons.
But it comes down to all behaviour: Some is genetic, and some is environment/experience.
It is a bit of Both.
How do YOU explain bisexuality? Hard Hah? It's not too hard when you realize all is behavior.

Being gay is not a choice. How one chooses to act about it is up to the person. Many people choose to not live as they were sexually born out of: being ostricized by family and friends, fear of ridicule, lose of job prospect, abuse or even death, it does not make them any less gay. Back in the day, no one had a problem with uncle Milty putting on a dress or Liberache, as long as they didn't think of them as having a loving partner of the same sex.

Have I given thought to what it would be like with a same sex partner? Yes Am I ok with the idea? Yes, as long as it was the right person and I loved them.

I think one of the main problems is that people think being homosexual is alays about sex. Love is about love, sex is about sex. What is the problem with two people of the same sex loving each other?

Oh, for the folks who keep bringing up man,woman and procreation, are you then saying that male/female couples should not get married if one of them is sterile? You keep talking about "God's will" is for man and woman and procreation. So is an infertile woman an abomination in your eyes, is a sterile man?

While we are on the subject of "God's will", if a couple is barren, thus as you contend, "God's will", is man not going against "God's will" by putting drugs into them to change the way "God" made them?

It seem to be that it's "God's will" to hate only if you disagree with how someone else lives.

I really wish that peopl would learn a bit more about genetic traits and learned behaviour before they talk about which is which.

Why? Let me see, according to physiology it takes male seed and a female egg for reproduction to occur. Which is why, in the garden G-d gave man Eve and not Steve. Just because something seems right to a group of people doesn't make it right, period. In the past we've been told that "if it feels good, do it". Well, what if I felt like punching you in the nose, or setting on fire the house of my next door neighbor who offended me. Those would be choices too, wouldn't they? I can choose to not go to work, and my boss would possibly have choices as well. If you (assuming you are "GAY") cannot think of two people of the same sex in a loving way, then it really must be just as abhorrent to you as it is to us who aren't gay. That in essence tells me that it is a choice and not a pre-deliction. Someone has said that people are inclined to live according to their pre-suppositions, and that their Theology follows their philosophy. This is displayed in the manner in which you present your argument.

Being gay is usually not by choice, however, there are some people who do choose for various reasons. Maybe a woman who was brutally raped would be turned off by any future interaction with a man, or a young boy who was molested might grow up "thiking" he's gay because of what happened to him when he was young. I've also known someone who for some bizzare reason thought it was the "cool" thing to do. She was totally obsessed with sex and didn't care who or what she had sex with. She was obviously in need of therapy... but that's for a different question.

I think of all my female friends in a loving way, but I'm not a lesbian. I have sex with my husband, God reserved that wonderful and renewing act for just me and him. Anything else would be immoral.

Again, I'll state that the inclination to desire the same sex isn't wrong, that's a chemical and biological thing, but actually doing the sexual act is wrong. Same as an alcoholic; they desire the drink, sometimes more than anything else in the world, but they know they shouldn't touch it. It's a shame for them, they can't enjoy a good glass of wine with dinner, but no one said life was fair.

Same as homosexuality; it's a hardship on them, but life is full of hardship isn't it?

I am sorry you are under the influence to the point you perceive people don't love people because they do not see homosexual behavior as appropriate. That's manipulative actually.

Have a couple questions for you:

Could this question be directed to those who have turned away from the behavior? I wouldn't exclude their testimony.

The only time I am aware human beings do not have choices are when they are sleeping. Has that crossed your mind?

Not everything homosexual is about lust -_- A lot of gays LOVE and CHERISH the partners they are with and want to build a life together with said partner.

They are looking for the exact same thing as a heterosexual. Love, a companion, a family, a friend, someone to accept them for what and who they are, and someone to share a home with.

Let people do what they want. *shrugs* It's like saying you disagree with people who have brunette dates. You don't like brunettes, don't associate with them (just as an example). So why not follow the same advice for a homosexual?

BECAUSE MAYBE YOU'LL FIND ONE YOU ACTUALLY LIKE AND GET ALONG WITH! It's silly to hate someone because of a thing like this.

it depends entirely whether you define "loving way" as meanign sex or love. The two are not necessarily synonymous as we all know form listening to the (albeit exaggerated) exploits of many in the school locker rooms.

I know one could easily imagine them being in love with and holding hands or embracing another person but to contemplate sex may be more difficult. and i suspect that applies to straigh tpeople when thinking of gay things and gay people when contemplating the straight thing. Works both ways doesn;t it.

Think on this for five minutes...
A poor family has nothing to eat and is homeless in the freezing cold. In order to stay alive, they sneak into houses and steal a few slice of bread to eat.

We'd all feel for this family. We'd naturally want to grant them pardon from this act. So, therefore, it is okay to steal.
