Why do some people think being a h0mosexual, is a choice?

[QUOTE="iamdisappointed"][QUOTE="flazzle"]

I did read every post in this thread, so forgive me if I am repeating something already said, but I think when people preach homosexuality is a choice, they are are implying that participating in homosexual behavior is the choice they are talking about.

Just because you are gay doesn't mean you have to participate in gay behavior. that's the a part of being a choice

(note: i hold no prejudice against straight or gays, just explaining how I think some people see it)

to be clear, i was saying what people MAY mean when the preach choice and homosexuality. for the record, i don't think there is anything wrong with homosexuality. sorry if i wasn't clear.

Homosexuality is a psychological disorder. Usually it depends on how the person was raised as a child. And then it can be because the person had a sexually disturbing past. So it kinda could be a choice but then again it cant.

LOL! :lol: the arguments. Its just a huge flame war!

What about prison? Those guys weren't gay before.bobaban

And they aren't gay after; participating in anal sex in a confined unisex space where one is desperate for sexual release does not make someone gay.

Pardon me if I'm overwhelmed with apathy as to your opinion on me. Perhaps if you'd demonstrated yourself to be anything more than a juggernaut of wrongness, plowing violently and indiscriminately into everyone in this thread who has a clue, I'd actually give a damn.iamdisappointed

Well, you don't seem to read all the posts accurately and you seem to read things into them that aren't there.

Whatever they want to believe...

"There's no treatment for homosexuality. Addendum: please leave the arguing to the grown-ups"

Makes no sense when you read what I wrote. Just a clear indication you have trouble comprehending.

He doesn't make any sense or simply doesn't know how to debate reasonably. can you figure out where he got the treatment part?

[QUOTE="testfactor888"] I think you should log off the computer and take a nap. You are far to cranky to do anything other than put people down for anything and everything. You are even putting down people who have the same opinion on the matter as you just because I pointed out you are being far to aggressive and rude to everyone. Apparently you could care less about anyone but yourself. As I have said you are acting like a child throwing a tantrum and coming off as a huge joke.iamdisappointed

saying 'leave the arguments to grownups' isn't insulting? Believe it or not, that kind made you look silly.

Well, you probably CANT explain it because you just aren't clear. I didn't make any situation. I was merely repeating what some people think and imply. And then you do the immature response of saying 'leave the arguing to grownups' which made zero sense at all. Show where in any of my posts where I talk about treatments? Anywhere.flazzle

Because, being heterosexual, they are experts on homosexuality and can determine that people chose to be in a discriminated and hated minority.

I never said anything close to that. Quote me where I did.

In all seriousness, do you have issue reading and comprehending?

Simply quote where I said what you stated above.

Just delete all insults and belittling or the mods will catch You. It's not like one person is making him/herself look silly, everyone involved is looking silly right now...
Please if You have arguments they are welcome, i don't see any.

I was the one who wrote that, but you misunderstood what i wrote completely

I never called homosexuality or heterosexuality a disease.

My analogy was meant to suggest that, all the problems of heterosexuality and homosexuality are more like symptoms of the ROOT cause which is the desire for sex...

to remove the problems of heterosexuality and homosexuality, the treatment is to remove the Desire for sex itself.

people will choose to remove that desire or they will choose not to remove that desire

[QUOTE="flazzle"]

[QUOTE="iamdisappointed"]What in God's name are you taking about? You made a crappy analogy and I explained why it was bollocks. I have no time for arguing with you if you're incapable of grasping basic, obvious facts like these. 'lets say there is a sickness that causes some people to have symptom A, and others to have symptom B then, someone comes along and says there is a free, safe and tested cure for the main sickness, then that person prescribes the treatment some of the sick people use the treatment and other sick people refuse it how can you say that people who still have either Symptom A or Symptom B aren't choosing to live that way?' Note the 'free, safe and tested cure,' for which there is no analogy in homosexuals. You lose.iamdisappointed

gay is not genetic. you learn why in biology.Buriz

It can be non-genetic and still not be a choice.

[QUOTE="testfactor888"][QUOTE="iamdisappointed"]Shush now. You've said virtually the same thing multiple times, and I s*at all over you for it then.iamdisappointed

it sounds like having to defend being gay/straight is stressful which sucks

I'm not going to read all 15 pages of this thread, and I think that's probably a good thing considering how people act around here, insulting each other and stuff. Anyway, if love is simply a feeling that forces humans to procreate, than how does homosexuality make sense?
