can you be born gay?

Answer 1

Yeah.

Answer 2

They say 'nature or nurture'. 'Why does someone end up gay', It's the way your born. I have two sons one straight one gay. Brought up just the same-nothing we did or didn't do made them different. I thought at the aged of 2years 10 months my youngest was 'camp' and by the time he was 5 I thought he was going to be gay. I didn't encourage it in any way and for his own sake-(so he wouldn't end up being picked on) I encouraged him to enjoy the boys things with his brother, which he did. He's is tough. My mother was the next family member to say to me that Adam was 'girly' and he was about 6 then. So people are born gay. Love both my sons the same.

Answer 3

Yes it is wired into your brain at birth through the emtional trauma your mother had gonr through thats why sex with a a women makes you anxious .

They have been doing experiments with worms and it seem s theat sexuality can be turned on chemically prior birth

Answer 4

It has never actually been proven that you can be born gay. I have a gay uncle and he used to be straight, but he went through a terrible break up and became gay.

Answer 5

So, when did you consciously decide to be straight? When you were 2? 12? 15? Many gay people pretend to be straight because of social pressure to do so. After years they can't stand it any longer and finally come out of the closet as they say. It's not that they were straight and suddenly turned gay, it's that they couldn't stand the pretense and lies any more.

Answer 6

Not again oh dear. Yes you are born "gay" as you call it. Homosexuality is a condition caused by an imbalance of the hormone supply in the womb . why did you really think people chose to belong to a minority group which attracts to much prejudice

Answer 8

Every gay person I've ever known has told me that that's the only way to be gay, to be born gay.

Answer 9

Of course you can. I knew I was gay by the time I was 8. I didnt know what to call it until I was 16, but I knew I prefered girls to boys and while my friends were drooling over Captain Scarlett, I was devoted to the Angels.

Answer 10

When you ask most gay people how long have you been gay for they will say i was born gay

Answer 11

Yes.

Scientific researchers who specialize in human sexuality have shown that homosexuality is linked to biology and genetics.

An October 2004 scientific research publication stated that scientists at the University of Padua have found that women tend to have more children when they inherit the same genetic factors linked to homosexuality in men. This fertility boost more than compensates for the lack of offspring fathered by gay men, and keeps the “gay” genetic factors in circulation.

A 2005 study reported genetic scans showing a clustering of the same genetic pattern among gay men on three chromosomes - chromosomes 7, 8, and 10. The regions on chromosome 7 and 8 were associated with male sexual orientation regardless of whether the man got them from his mother or father. The regions on chromosome 10 were only associated with male sexual orientation if they were inherited from the mother.

A study published in Human Genetics in February 2006 examined X chromosome inactivation in mothers of gay sons and mothers whose sons were not gay. Researchers found extreme differences between women who had gay sons and women who did not.

Another 2006 scientific study said that researchers have known for years that a man's likelihood of being gay rises with the number of older biological brothers, but the new study found that the so-called "fraternal birth order effect" persists even if gay men were raised away from their biological families. The older-brother effect was constant regardless of whether the men were raised with natural, adopted or stepbrothers. It also didn't matter if they weren't raised with their biological mothers.
