What University did you go to?
I don't know. Something which many gay people hate is the stories about gay people which went in marriage with the opposite sex. But not because of some stigma or social pressure. Willingly. Because they "love" their partner. I read stories about it and I would not be surprised if it is true. The gays say they are "not" homosexuals and like to say "you cant choose!". But I beg to differ. I think it really depends on the situation. Or to say it that way. The exception proofs the rule.welsh said:You might argue- life is about more than just sex. Ok. As Dammitboy said, he lives for sex.

welsh said:DammitBoy, on the bottom of page 7 you're pretty clear about the importance of sex in your life.
Hmm. How would I know ? Without talking to those people I cant say anything about their motivations but only speculate.welsh said:Crni - I suspect some people choose the gay life style because of something in their upbringing, but I think most are born gay. From what I see in friends who are gay, it a terrible lifestyle that most people probably wouldn't choose. Why choose to be a discriminated minority when you don't have too?
you have a point. I heard about some kind of Lizard which contains only female members and they somehow get offspring by "phartogenesis" since they don't need a male anymore the daughter is more or less a copy of the mother. Though it seems that the "need" for mating is still present in those lizards so you would see them engage in trying to mate or arouse each other. To quote some website :DammitBoy said:If there wasn't a strong drive in our dna to have sex, the species would become extinct.
That's why.

Crni Vuk said:But that still is not simply "proof" that the genes have to be only possible source. Or to be more specific we still haven't found the exact gene which is causing sexuality. I mean for something as simple like eye colour you can not even identify one single genome. Leave alone something as complex like sexuality or for example "intelligence". So there are still a lot of mysteries inside of it. Particularly to something as complex like Humans which developed a quite distinctive "mating ritual" among mammals.
To say that I don't disagree with you. There is just no real knowledge what actually is the source of "sexuality".
And If I am honest. I hope they will never find one. Because if for example they would identify one single gene which makes one hetero and the other homo one could get the "idea" homosexuals are just a mutation. Or something you might be able to "cure" one day ... a very frightening idea in my eyes.
