Born Gay? Legit or not.

A good topic given current events. I don't see how it could possibly be genetic for some very obvious reasons yet some people still argue it. Did natural selection have a part? How? It's the exact opposite of what natural selection seeks to accomplish. If it was natural then it would have died out long time ago cause there'd be no way to pass it on. Does anybody buy this ridiculous notion.

 

why are some 10 year olds clearly gay? they havent even hit puberty yet

 

legit.

 

I don't think its genetic, but hormonal. So yes, born that way.

 

I was born a man trapped as a woman in a man's body.

 

I think of it like this:

Our basic primal objectives are to survive and procreate. That's it. It's very hard to shy away from one of them. I don't want kids ever, but I still want to have sex (with a female), and one could argue that besides the obvious guy reasons for wanting to have sex, one of the reasons is because that is how to procreate. I'm driven to procreate.

A gay person cannot procreate if they had sex with the same sex. It's not going to happen no matter how hard they try. They are going against one of their most basic instincts. Something has to be genetically different about them.

Dr. Starr, a geneticist, said that "almost all the data shows that being gay is not a choice".

 

There are animals that practice homosexuality. These things can be passed through recessive traits.

 

Passed how? Do animals also practice in vitro fertilization?

 

Can't be, I know a guy who had girlfriends now he's gay.

 

there's no reason you would expect genetic homosexuality to die out if it is carried recessively among the gene pool of a large population. same reason red hair doesn't die out.

 

Nah, people switch sides all the time.

 

So the gay gene has to be spread by straight people with the recessive gene?

 

oh, well, there you go then.

 

How many gay guys have you heard of that sleep with men and then one day realize they want a woman?

There is a such thing as realizing youre not happy and realizing and accepting that you're gay.

 

Man, it's pretty exhausting to see this kind of bullshit every day.

Sometimes it takes a person a while to realize they're gay. Sometimes they repress it (I can't imagine why, I mean it isn't like people call us ***gots or kill us or anything, or hey there's people like JET - no reason at all to repress it and hope it goes away!!11!!!11!). Sometimes, people are bisexual. Many times people have what we like to call 'the gay panic'.

Did you choose to be straight? Hey, regardless, do you think that guy's attractive? Yeah? Well, why don't you go fuck him. Can't? Why not? Aren't gay? BUT YOU COULD CHOOSE TO BE JET!

Shockingly, I know this may come as a surprise, but as much as you wouldn't choose to fuck a guy, I wouldn't choose to fuck a guy either. I like women. There was no choice. You could slather up your cock in the most delicious collection of frosting, pastries, and icecream ever.

Still wouldn't be interested. Cause I don't like cocks, and I never chose.

 

You should do a little refresher on genetics

 

Yeah, and I think that has to do with their hormonal balance.

more on the theory. just a balance of hormones.

but some people are just horny and will have sex with whatever.

 

Is pedophilia a genetic trait?

Curious, and not at all flaming you. I do realize that being gay is nowhere near being a pedophile, so don't go there, but many people claim that pedophiles are incurable.

 

Red hair doesn't stop you from procreating.

 

There are straight and gay pedos right? I'd say it's really close to being gay. It's just a matter of age preference.
