Is being straight a choice?

Uhhh it would be a choice to take an apple over a banana, right? Those are my two choices.. I chose an apple.. Simple.

My choices for sexuality are Bi, gay, or straight. I obviously know my choice.
Completely wrong. First, if you like apples and bananas, then you make the choice to eat one because from birth, you had a natural liking for both.

Now if you were born with a horrid distaste for bananas from birth, then you aren't making a choice because there is only one option in your mind, and that is the orange.
Now say for instance, you ate the banana over the orange DESPITE your disliking of bananas, then that would be a choice.

See, when it comes to what you naturally like, if there is only one option, then it is not choice. But when there are two things you like, there must be a choice. To be straight or gay is not a choice because you naturally like one. But to pick something you don't like, or if you have two things you are attracted to, that is choice.

So, being bisexual you make a choice of penis/vagina or go with both. Being straight or gay, to you there is no "other" option because the "other" option doesn't attract to you to begin with, so in that instance there is no choice. It's really common sense to be honest.

if a truely staight guy Sucks a dick, that was a choice, it dont make him gay.

a gay guy could lick some pussy, that dont make him straight.

It is like when you get hungry, you could choose not to eat, but in your heart you truely know that you are hungry.

lol so you're saying you can only make a choice if you pick something you don't like? I like the texans (football team) over the titans. So I can only make a choice between who is my favorite if I pick the titans? WTF? I'm lost.

Uhhh cheer leaders..

LOL still laughing at being told you only make a choice if you choose what you don't want.. How the hell would it be a choice if that's your only choice? That's like saying choose between red or blue but you can only choose the one you don't want otherwise you didn't make a choice. Makes zero sense.

I would say that you are BI with tendency towards women. I'm straight and I've never even considered being with a man, there was no choice. But if I was attracted to both men and women but chose either one over the other then that might be a choice.

I say "might" because there maybe other factors in play, such as genetics, testosterone/estrogen levels, life experiences and other things you have no control over.
Why does your opinion change? If it's not a choice, then it's not a choice no matter what. IDK man, something tells me it's a choice.. Just can't prove it.. So I guess all I'm saying is pointless lol

I believe it's a combination of genetics and hormone levels, but there might be some psychological factors as well. Not the predisposition to one sex or the other, but the choice of the bisexual between the two sexes.

A lot of fetishes can be explained psychologically and can be attributed to life experiences, that might sway the person's choice one way or the other.

Here is another article I found. http://www.mygenes.co.nz/PDFs/Ch7.pdf

Heph,
Where you put your dick is a choice. The urge behind that choice isn't. Whether it's in the mind, hormones, environment or genetics that causes the urge, who gives a fuck. What do you care? I don't. It's their life.

I'm straight, but I can't wait for the day that we no longer have to ask this questions, and questions like it. I'd rather two guys showing affections not be put in my face, but love is love is love.

A Kaendar thread? Heph, why?

And one oddly reminiscent of UB's cheerful balderdash about signing a W4 being a choice. I rub my chin; I do. cn
Over-tiredness lead to a wooden spoon moment??

I live in the gay capital of Europe. Being gay is not a choice. People are born the way they are IMO. The punishment for being gay is some countries is death so it's quite obviously not a choice.

What do you think? Got any proof?

I prefer pussy over cock.. That's a choice, no?
The census bureau assigns sexuality at birth like this- odd, even, odd, even, straight, gay, straight, gay. Doesn't matter if you're male, female or hermaphrodite. They're just doing their job, they don't really care about a persons sexual orientation, instinct, preference, attraction or choice. Neither should we.

I can think of decidedly questionable activities with a wooden spoon. Comes with being bipolar. cn
