Do you believe that homosexuality is something that one chooses to "partake in", something predetermined at birth, or some sort of combination? A classic debate...

If homosexuality is a choice, then heterosexuality must is a choice as well. How and when did you choose to be a heterosexual?

I'm not one, but I figured it would be a good topic ;)

I think homosexuals are born that way. Think about it did any of us choose our sexuality. With all the differences between man and women wouldn't you choose to be with someone that would understand exactly where you're coming from. and wouldn't another man be able to do that. But you we don't choose our sexuality.

I very much feel that it has everything to do except choice. I do not feel it is a choice. But science cannot prove anything beyond a shadow of a doubt. From lifestyles to genetics. It is an orientation, an inclination. Something beyond control. That is how I feel.

I don't think it matters. Who really cares, anyways? It's like arguing about which came first, the chicken or the egg... I personally believe that people who are gay are just that way. Period. No choice. Just as I don't have a choice in being heterosexual; it's just the way that I am. Just let people be people, and worry about what really matters in life is what I say.

I think true homosexuality is determined at conception. But there are always people who choose to partake in encounters outside their normal sexuality choices.

it is not possible for one to be born with a homosexual trait, no where at all this is something that occurs later on in life with in the person him or her self!!

Personally I do not think it matters. It is like trying to find out if you are born right handed, decide to become right handed, or whatever. To me it doesn't matter at all.
