Quick Scientific Facts That Disprove Myth That Homosexuality is a "Choice"

[WingDinger]

2. YOUR logic is faulty.

Just because gay and womens brains are similar, does NOT prove that sexual orientation is inborn. Brains change, according to what they think.

If being gay was a choice, it would likely occur, how I was taught. About two, various factors go into what gender you find appealing, in a sexual type way. So, it being a choice, is moot. You wont change that association. Now, any attempts to change that at around two, should be discouraged. For there is no impairment to choosing either way.

I think that leaving it as a choice is judged as dangerous to our desire to guarantee equal rights. Many feel that inborn sexual orientation can give protected minority status to gays. I think that mainstreaming sexual orientation that is gay is the goal. Even thinking in terms of protected minority, is antithetical to that goal.

As far as I am concerned, all persons are created equal. And, all persons are allowed THEIR pursuit of happiness. And the chosen moniker, gay fits well with happiness.

We should not allow social threats dictate our science.





""""""According to Dr. Qazi Rahman, a professor of cognitive biology at Queen Mary University of London, these differences can only be formed during the fetal period, which indicates "if you are gay - you are born gay." """



I dont know if I buy that yet.
