Meditation4u Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) In my opinion I think your born that way, obviously as a baby your not gonna know who your attracted too , your brain process isn't even working yet at that age but as you grow up you get to know some people and you get attracted to them , its all in your own taste just like music , some people lisen to what thier friends listen too but me personally ill listen to anything that sounds good just like if I where to be gay I don't have any controll over it i just like what i like idk if that makes sense Edited February 16, 2014 by Meditation4u Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meditation4u Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) You can control about anything but sexuality isnt something u can control Edited February 16, 2014 by Meditation4u Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Botre Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I think you can control what you want to become. You're in control of walking your psychological skeleton wherever you want, but you can't change the actual skeleton itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLOCKSTAR Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 It's a scientific fact that you can be born in the wrong body.. idk if that means your bi or not tho mate how the absolute fuck can u be born in the wrong body? are u being for real? that statement is null and void. i dont really need to explain why. just let it marinate in ur brain.. born in the wrong body... ffs and eplain how a scientist can prove that.. wtf im gob smacked. on topic: i dont think your born gay/bi i believe its the way your brought up and how your nurtured.

Raflesia Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I don't really think you can be born as a bi. It has to do with your personal feelings, and hormones could play a role as well. So yes, you could say that it's a transition, and different factors play a role in it, such as the enviorment your in (your personal experiences, friends, etc..), your mindset and your feelings etc. I truly believe that a lot of people are or can be bi, but it all depends on the above said factors. For example, a girl that has a trauma for boys because she was raped when she was young, won't feel comfortable around any boy, but she will probably feel fine with girls. Only this one experience in her life could cause her to turn into a lesbian or bi (bi if she gets help and face her trauma, of course, something that will probably happen on a later stage). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with what you say. I think a human wants to experience different things and see what it's like. So it's like about trying to see why the norm is norm and not the other way around maybe.

DecMate Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I think we're born to like the opposite sex. The Ying to our Yang. Natural attraction. I don't know anyone who was been gay from the getgo line. They usually have grown into it. If people were born and were bi straight away - then there would be just as many people bi, as to who are straight. Which there clearly isn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raflesia Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 It's a choice. I disagree with that. You can't control your feelings nor your enviorment. Someone that is 100% hetero right now could easily turn into a bi or gay in less than a month. It's all about the factors. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your ignorance... it is making everyone a little less intelligent on this thread. If you've never taking the time to research the subject and extract fact from fiction, why claim another person is wrong. Brains are nothing but a complex wiring diagram, things go wrong. Your a boy, you know this, you feel this, you have testosterone fueling this belief. What if that person has the mental wiring of a female due to genetic mutations. Also, do you think people would CHOOSE to be ridiculed by much of society and shunned by (seeing as many people are in christian families) your parents even? I FULLY believe sexuality is something determined at the time of conception. Are you able to control how fast you can comprehend words? or read text? or react to things? these are all processes of your un-tamable mind, and i believe, so is sexuality. ALSO: If being gay was a 50/50 shot in genetics, we wouldnt have even became the species we are. Thats like saying DOWN SYNDROME MUST BE A CHOICE CUZ THERE WOULD BE ALOT MORE PPL WITH DOWNS IF THEY WERE BORN DOWNS OR NOT.no.... its called genetic mutations, they can do some crazy shit like make you INVINCIBLE to AIDS, give you 4 legs, 2 dicks, a dick and a vagina, one eye, and anything you can think. After you process that, tell me you think being gay is absolutely a choice still. Edited February 16, 2014 by codybabiasz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
