I don't know. From what I have seen and heard and read, seems to me there are several causes for homosexuality. We already know that there are biological causes. Take for example how often homosexuality is being recorded in nature (and being taken note of now) in different species largely across the whole spectrum. Yes, it is very real and natural, my conservative friends. The whole thing about man + woman = child argument is shallow even at face value, based on nothing more than binary imperative. Don't get me started on that one.
But, there have been several times where the likely genesis is a reaction to an event (or several) in someone's past. When things such as rape and repeated molestation seem to be the defining point in someone's life.
Then there's the choice thing... I can't help but feel that sometimes it actually has been a choice. Consider the "Womyn loving Womyn" of certain Anti-mysoginistic movements. They will even go so far as to claim that it's not homosexuality by couching it in pseudo-intellectual rhetoric that resembles Plato's Parmenides.
So, is it safe to assume one person is this, and another person is that? No. I believe that evidence would show that the safe assumption would be to allow someone to be themselves, to be whole, to be a well-rounded person not tied up in shame or guilt trying to fit into someone else's idea of what someone with XX or XY should be (insert other criteria here as well). Only then do you have someone who can contribute in body, mind and spirit to the community at large spontaneously from their greatest strengths and sources of well-being.

Homosexuality is a biological thing you are born that way, it is not a choice. Some people choose to be gay but most were born that way. The idea that it is a choice for most of us is wrong, it leads to thoughts like well if they chose to be gay they can just change their mind. That is not gonna work for most of us I was gay from birth and I know it.

I was, I never had a choice...except to be honest about who I am.
That was it, the ONLY choice I had.
I tried to choose to lie, to live against how I was made, I tried to pray away my homosexuality, tried to overly sexualize heterosexuality, tried to marry away my homosexuality, even had a child thinking that would "cure" me.
The fact still remained.
I'm gay, I was born that way and I took my a really long time to accept it.
