You say "choose", but I don't think it's a choice.

There's zero evidence that supports that, "gay gene" advocates notwithstanding. People choose who with and how they have sex. You might as well say "The devil made me do it !"

There is no conclusive evidence otherwise.

True we choose WHO we have sex with, but homosexuality is more than that. It's defined not just by what you do, but who you desire to do it with. If you're a married male who has to fantasize about men in order to have sex with his wife, I'd say he's probably a homosexual.

Ok, so what you're saying is a person deliberately chooses to have sex with the same gender......mind if I ask how this is done? Do they flip a coin in the morning? Do they have a dartboard with a big M on one side and a big F on the other side of it? Exactly how do they choose.

I find it rather incredible that people think homosexuality is a deliberate choice, I really do. God knows I've been turned down by women often enough.....but I never had a thought to sleep with another guy to make up for it. I find it remarkable that people actually choose to be gay....I just wonder how they go about it.

I think you either have a pre-disposition to be gay, or you don't. I don't think making a deliberate choice to be a homosexual happens at all. Either it's there or it's not.

I don't believe that is her point. I believe she is saying that she didn't choose which gender to be attracted to sexually. Did you choose to be sexually attracted to members of the opposite gender, and conversely, sexually repulsed by those of the same?
