In my instance, I can say I was born a lesbian. I never chose to be one, it's just who I am and always have been. All gays that I have ever met have said the same. There is no logic in believing someone would choose to be something they are not nor were never meant to be. Yes, even gays are logical and rational people, no matter what some may think.Heterosexuals will say it's a choice, perhaps it was for them if they experimented with it but that would be just the sex act, not the love that comes along with it, Homosexuality goes beyond the sex act. It is attraction and love of another human being. Deep love, committed love. Something that one can not just make up or pretend about. No, I will never agree that it's a choice. It is a life, not a lifestyle.

I do not believe homosexuality is inherited. I believe it is a design of God for His reasons. Homosexuals are born to heterosexual parents. I've never seen any studies making the claim that gay sperm produces gay children.

Exactly. I was always attracted to women but didn't pursue it until I was 15. But part of it was fear of what other people said or thought about me but in the end I became comfortable about who I was as a person.

Both. There are some people who live their whole lives as straight and then maybe 20 years later, they find that same sex who they have an attraction to.

Some people feel like from birth, they knew they were attracted to the same sex. (Don't know how. Id give it up until at least age 5 when they know but hell, who's counting)...

Those people who lived their whole lives straight where living a lifestyle, one they chose out of fear of persecution. It took their whole lives to find the courage to live the life they were meant to live. No true heterosexual wakes up one day and says, "Today I think I'll turn gay."

I knew at 5 I was different. I just didn't understand how I was different. Puberty showed me when I found myself attracted to girls and not boys.
