I have yet to meet a gay who doesnt constantly play victim. They want to be the center of attention so they can keep obsessing about how victimized they are.
I know a couple of gay folks that don't make a big deal about it and don't play the victim. They are much more liked and respected than the others I know.

It's not BS, it's common sense. And has been for a VERY LONG time. You are capable of choosing your sexual preferences
Can you tell me the moment in your life you chose to like women? If someone held a gun to your head right now and forced you to change your attraction from women to men, could you?
You're confusing someone's ability to choose whether or not he/she engages in behavior with someone's ability to control why they like a behavior. I can't tell you why I like pasta, I just do. But I have a choice as to whether or not I eat pasta, not to stop liking it.

why do people choose coke over pepsi? why do people choose to watch a 4 hour regular season baseball game? why do people choose to play 'call of duty'?
its what they like, what business is it of yours?

They were born that way? Why do you care one way or the other?

But yes, this is why I do not favor adoptions by homosexuals because said environment might well influence an otherwise heterosexual individual to make a choice to become homosexual or bi-sexual. And given the very real health risks associated with homosexuality, this is not healthy alternative.
Ah, so that's why heterosexual couples always have heterosexual children, right?
By all accounts, "environmental" in this application probably means hormones in utero, not an overbearing mother or being around other gay people. You don't catch it lol.

I really don't care what anyone does either, as long as it does not affect me or my family.
What I DO care about is the agenda behind trying to make this a genetic thing, and the dishonesty of those who report it.

They don't choose. It's God's will.

Like most behavior, there are both biological and environmental factors involved.

So you're saying the only reason that you're straight is that you choose to be straight every day?
Does your wife know about your husband?

For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error." -Romans 1:24-27
Romans 12:13 – “Mark of the true Christian: “…Extend hospitality to strangers…”
Matthew 5:10-11 –“Blessed are those who are persecuted.”
Matthew 25:31-46 – “…I was a stranger and you welcomed me.”
Luke 3:11 – “Whoever has two coats must share with anyone who has none…”
Luke 4:16-21 – “…Bring good news to the poor…release to the captives…sight to the blind...let the oppressed go free.”
Corinthians II 8:13-15 – “It is a question of a fair balance between your present abundance and their need…”
Ephesians 2:11-22 – “So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are citizens with the saints and also members of the household of God.”
Hebrews 11 – “By faith Abraham…set out for a place…not knowing where he was going.”
Hebrews 13:1-2 – “…show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels…”
James 2:5 – “Has not God chosen the poor in the world…”
James 2:14-17 – “What good is it…if you say you have faith but do not have works?”
John 3:18 – “…Let us love, not in word or speech, but in truth and action.”
John 4:7-21 – “Beloved, let us love one another, because love is from God…” We love because God first loved us.”

Are you only attracted to males? You sure you've never felt attracted to someone who by all appearances was male, but had female parts?

In fairness there is a whole lot of people that get into that sort of thing. Golden Showers, S&M, Erotic Humiliation, etc

The truth is, no one really knows. It may be nature. It may be nurture. It may be a combination of the two. Even though there is disagreement as to what causes it, just about all studies I have read agree it is not a choice.
How would it being genetic impact your life? I ask because you came out pretty strongly against it. Or was it just the false narrative?

While it may not be a choice to be attracted to a member of the same sex, it is certainly a choice to have sex with them.

To my knowledge, yes.

I suppose it's possible from a physical (clothed) appearance standpoint lol. But like a straight male with even the most realistic looking drag queen, the lack of specific parts would be a deal breaker.

I agree 100%. When I said it's not a choice, I meant our inherent attraction to things, not our choice to engage in certain behaviors.

Just to be clear, the transgender community has an issue with you. You have a bigoted heart and need to work thru that...
