I know I’m going to catch a lot of flack for this but I’m going to post it anyway. When I met my wife (no longer together)she had a son that was six months old. I knew, or had a pretty good idea before he was a year old, that he was going to be homosexual. I tried everything, but he acted feminine. I have always thought that it was a choice and still want to believe that but I watched this kid grow up and have know all along how he was going to turn out. I haven’t seen him in several years now and he is a full blown flaming homo. I’m not trying to defend it but I saw it with my own eyes from a very early age, I can’t explain it.
You can choose to act on your attractions but that doesnt mean you chose to have the attractions.
I don’t know either. Maybe some people are predisposed to being homosexual though not genetically homosexual from birth.
I’ve always wondered why some gay guys have the same gay lisp.
Do they have the lisp because they’re gay or is it learned? If so, from whom? Some have it even as children.
Lots of gay guys don’t have it at all.
“Ive always wondered why some gay guys have the same gay lisp.”
My husbands nephew is gay, super nice guy and not demonstrative in any way, very private. When he was three/four years old, he had that “lisp”, he played with our son the same age and I remember the stark difference between them. We knew he was gay from the get-go.
There does not have to be a "gay gene" for homosexual tendencies to be inborn.
The genes are a genetic code, the instructions for assembling a person, which takes place in the womb. Just as with assembling a car, sometimes mistakes are made, and you get a lemon. That doesn't mean the directions for assembly of the car are wrong, only that they weren't followed properly in that case.
Similarly, many things affect the developing fetus. Most birth defects are not caused by defective genes, they're caused by a failure to properly replicate the genes' instructions, with most of the reasons why this happens still mysterious.
It is entirely reasonable, to my mind, that some fetuses are exposed, at a critical stage in development, to hormonal surges or other factors that cause them to fail to develop properly in this area.
If so, the condition would be inborn, but not genetic.
why do people have accents? same reason.
why do women who really wanted a girl, reinforce feminine behavior in their sons, end up with cross dressing males?
why do English lords who are sent away to school grow up with weird enjoyment of being caned.
Why did Narcissus obsess with his own reflection?
