Are Homosexuals, bi sexuals or heterosexuals born with their sexuality determined, or is it a life style choice?

We are born who we are. Why would anyone choose to be an outcast of religion, society and in most cases, their own family ??? Tom

I think you are born with your sexuality determined. You environment can play a part deciding if you act on it. By that I don't just mean if you will act out gay tendencies. What if you are hetrosexual and you go into the preisthood? Your environment would keep you from acting out your natural sexuality. On the flip side, I think there are quite a few young people that may just be experimenting with their sexuality because it seems the thing to do in their environment. But your true sexuality I beleive is there with you from birth and no one can or should change it.

No they are not. They decide later on in life.

That is something I think no one really knows. I think, but this is my Opinion, I think it is in the Person which I woul say they are born with it. I do not believe it is a choice.

I think it is part genetic and part choice of life. But it is just an opinion, not grounded on any scientific evidence.

that is certainly correct, but is it a choice?
