Do you think homosexuality is genetic? Or is it all in the mind?

Question

Do you think it's a choice?

Answer 1

It is not a choice.
You cannot choose who you are attracted to.

Answer 2

There are some homosexuality that was inborn. And if the straight guys are lured to that person, the tendency is to become the same. Men also needs someone in their life, and if that someone happens to be a homo and fulfills the cravings for someone, their friendship will blossom into a very strong relationship and later they will both become homos. The straight guy was wasted in a sense of a beautiful women but not to the homos. It is genetic and sometimes it doesn't come out for so many generations. Sometimes it comes out in a female and sometimes in male of the same family.

Answer 3

I am not sure how someone becomes gay but I do not think it is a conscious choice. Could be genetic though that has not been proved. Could be psychological reasons or environmental reasons. The thing is no real studies have been done that were free of political or moral bias.

I have known a lot of GLBT people but only met one lesbian who said she had chosen to be a lesbian. She said she was still attracted to men but could not be in a relationship with one. I have never met a gay man who said they had made that choice.

I can not imagine anyone in their right mind choosing to be outcast from most of society.

Answer 4

I think the feelings homosexuals have are genetic. You can't choose who you love. But it is a choice to lead the lifestyle.

I don't see how people could ever think it is a choice to have homosexual feelings, because LGBTs are tormented their entire lives. Who would choose to deal with that if they didn't have too, right? But in the end, I guess love overrides everything else.

Answer 5

I don't think it's a choice nor genetic.

Answer 6

i think it is genetic, or a trait, or something like that...i don't think its a choice at all...
i know a lot of gay people who often wished they weren't gay cause they think life would be easier...so definitely not a choice....

I think it's natural. The only choice is whether you want to stay in the closet or not.
