RK's statement or my basic expansion of it?
Because it felt like the right choice to make?
I reckon they can be cured, with the right treatment.
But why would it seem the right choice to make when from a young age everyone is told they should be straight.
Surely the same principle can be applied to anything. Why do people do what they do? Sure, somethings are desirable, at least to most people e.g. the idea of reproduction. However sometimes things are done, for well, no reason in particular.
There isn't an answer. It may be that people are gay for different reasons, it may be that its biological etc. In all honesty I don't think we will ever know.
People just have to accept that others have made a life style choice-and for some that means being gay.
Yeah, but its the alcohol which causes it.
Please elaborate. Taking from the view that there is a god mind.
And I don't think they turn gay...
I wasnt in anyway suggesting that they would, I hope you dont think I was.
The only reason I mentioned it was as a side note to J's comment about feminine beer, thats all.
So those who don't know the answer to DW's question, are unsure of their sexuality...
Afterall, women with Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) are much more likely to be lesbians.
I genuinely am. PM me if you like, it'll probably go off topic!

Hence the long standing view that homosexuality didn't exsist in the animal kingdom, because animals couldn't be unnatural - and homosexuality was seen as unnatural. Therefore the arguement that god allows homosexuality as some form of test of conscience doesn't square with the evidence of homosexuality amongst animals - why would that exsist if homosexuality is against nature?
and does anyone know why these animals want to have gay sex with eachother, they might jsut be blind or have something wrong in their heads for all we know
people like who they like, personally i find homosexuality unnatural, however people like lots of unnatrual things so that shouldnt affect anything
who cares what modern psychology puts it down to?! up until a few decades ago, it was thought in psychology / psychiatry that if you were gay you were suffering from a mental illness.
at a long shot in current times psychology would say it is probably about either having strong male role models when you are younger (and you are developing your perception of the world) or not having any.
there is no theory which takes into account all the magnitude of reasons why some people might be gay. you could ask what makes somebody straight - and what would psychology tie that down to?
Enlighten us then.
You're assuming that I've never read the Bible or been to Sunday school or know anything about Christianity. You're also assuming I have no training in physics. You never heard the saying that tells us what assumption is the mother of?
