My partner and I has been in a debate about if sexual orientation is determined at birth. The opposing team has said that sexual orientation is not a choice and it is determined at birth. Well, Francis and I argue that it is a choice to be homosexual or heterosexual.
“ ‘Being born gay’ as most people say, is in fact not a choice.....There is no such thing as a child waking up one day to all of a sudden say, “I’m homosexual” or even heterosexual or bisexual. The decision has already been made before birth. There are no paths to choose from: you are just born the way you are.”
Francis and I do not agree with their statement, because both of us agree that it is a choice to be gay. This choice can mostly happen through sexual abuse or influence by friends or family. The National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality has said:
“NARTH agrees with the American Psychological Association that ‘biological, psychical and social factors’ shape sexual identity at an early age for most people... There is no such thing as a ‘gay gene’ and there is no evidence to support the idea that homosexuality is genetic or unchangeable.”
With this people can not have gay genes in their DNA because it would not survive the gene pool and can make this choice because of an effect in life. Francis and I strongly agree that it is choice to be homosexual or heterosexual.
