One day, someday, there won’t be any more questions like this on fluther.
It will be a regular old day, a fun day, could be a rainy day or a sunny day. But like John Lennon’s Imagine – there just won’t be a need for them.
It won’t matter what you think, what has been “proven” or not, what one’s knowledge of science is, and his personal understanding of genes, hormones and environmental factors (mine is close to zero, e.g. – I’m not a Doctor or scientist).
It just won’t matter.
I am not gay. I am attracted to women. I also don’t think it’s entirely black and white, and those who call themsellves bi or bi-curious, or “just tried something one drunken night in college” are any different from those who did not.
We are very, very complex individual human beings. We are exposed to, or not, so many things that factor in with the biology. We are not walking hormones, we are not robots. We are people.
I don’t completely agree with Simone, e.g., on the whole gender thing – but then, what do I know? Maybe she’s right.
The first poster here, a noobie (welcome to fluther) @Luiveton thinks it’s both – some are born that way, some choose it. He has a friend who chooses to be gay.
I say, bottom line, I wish for a tolerant, better society when one can be born that way, because God makes no mistakes (just kidding, Gaga) – or choose it, or experiment – or not even think about it – in short – a society where it becomes a non-issue.
Let’s start with Fluther. Here, we are all jellies.
