Sexuality is something that's decided at birth.
[QUOTE=NuckinFuts;16192687]Sexuality is something that's decided at birth.[/QUOTE] You're a troll.
[QUOTE=Doriol;16192662]This is your argument that sexuality isn't a decision?[/QUOTE] Your arguments have consisted of either repeating my statement or saying the complete opposite. also I'd like to take this opportunity to explain that attacking the opponent is terrible debate procedure. I'm simply stating that sexuality is out of your hands, When you are born, And when you are learning, You will learn all sorts of behaviors that aren't consciously perceived, but you will still be learning them, Things like sexuality, Personality, likes and dislikes and such will all be beamed at you by your peers and parents. I fail to see how it is up to you. There is no check box, no ballot, There's no switch or toggle. Just what you learn
[QUOTE=Doriol;16192698]You're a troll.[/QUOTE] No, I'm an alt of OP.
[QUOTE=NuckinFuts;16192709]No, I'm an alt of OP.[/QUOTE] Why would you admit to this?
Holy shit a smart discussion on the internet, in a thread about a homosexual childhood. [b]What is happening to the world!?[/b]
[QUOTE=Paravin;16192929]Holy shit a smart discussion on the internet, in a thread about a homosexual childhood. [b]What is happening to the world!?[/b][/QUOTE] I have come to save you. Rejoice.
[QUOTE=The golden;16193017]Sorry to burst your bubble chief, but you don't "choose" to be homosexual. It's hormone balances in your brain. Do you [B]really [/B]think I "decided" I was going to like shit? No. I was born with it.[/QUOTE] ..Wow.
[QUOTE=The golden;16193057]Thank you for continuing to provide well-rounded and intelligent arguments such as this.[/QUOTE] There's no way to argue with such utter bullshit.
I wish I had an oxygen breathing fetish, Than I could be rock hard 24/7.
[QUOTE=The golden;16193017]Sorry to burst your bubble chief, but you don't "choose" to be homosexual. It's hormone balances in your brain. Do you really think people wake up and "hurr durr, I think I'll like men today" Do you [B]really [/B]think I "decided" I was going to like shit? No. I was born with it. You cannot decide what does and does not turn you on. Could you look at a pile of steaming shit and decide it's going to turn you on? You probably couldn't. I know I wouldn't.[/QUOTE] Actually, it isn't hormone balances/imbalances, else it could be classed as something that's actually 'wrong' with you, and it could be 'cured' with some testosterone/estrogen. I'm actually not sure what causes it.
[QUOTE=The golden;16193097]Yeah, that's why it's a waste of time arguing with you, really.[/QUOTE] You're suggesting that there is no such thing as choice and that everything is determined at birth.
[QUOTE=The golden;16193119]I meant the hormone imbalances are linked with homosexuality. It's not 100% proven though, but you sure as hell don't "pick" to be homosexual.[/QUOTE] Prove it.
[QUOTE=Demode;16193103]Actually, it isn't hormone balances, else it could be classed as something that's actually 'wrong' with you, and it could be 'cured' with some testosterone/estrogen. I'm actually not sure what causes it.[/QUOTE] It is acquired behavior. During your childhood while you are learning such things. Once your childhood is over, they are cemented in your brain, it's perfectly natural.
[QUOTE=The golden;16193139]Uhm...yes. Do you [B]honestly [/B]think people wanted to be what they are? Of course they don't.[/QUOTE] How fucking stupid can you get?
[QUOTE=Doriol;16193143]How fucking stupid can you get?[/QUOTE] I submit that you aren't arguing because you care, You're arguing because you're bored or have nothing better to do.
[QUOTE=The golden;16193139]Uhm...yes. Do you [B]honestly [/B]think people wanted to be what they are? Of course they don't. If they had a choice most would choose against it. But they don't have a choice, so they live with it happily.[/QUOTE] Most no, but if you have some control over your instincts, then yes, you can be what you want to be, at least when it comes to interests (sexual or not). But you must really want to change to do that of course.
Think about this for one goddamn second. You're suggesting that people's personalities and everything else is predetermined.
[QUOTE=The golden;16193197]I'm talking about sexuality specifically. Jesus Christ, I know that your personality aspects can change with you, but a good chunk of it you're born with. It's what makes you "you", right from the start.[/QUOTE] Personality is a learned. So is sexuality.
Social evolution.
What the fuck is going on in this thread now. Lol king :buddy:
[QUOTE=Doriol;16193178]You're suggesting that people's personalities and everything else is predetermined.[/QUOTE] What about depression? Depression is caused by an incorrect hormonal balance, however no one chooses to have depression, nor is it predetermined. It just happens.
[QUOTE=doggunn;16193264]What about depression? Depression is caused by an incorrect hormonal balance, however no one chooses to have depression, nor is it predetermined. It just happens.[/QUOTE] You can't choose whether or not to feel a certain emotion. I never said that.
[QUOTE=The golden;16193283]Placebo.[/QUOTE] You still don't have a choice.
[QUOTE=Doriol;16193271]You can't choose whether or not to feel a certain emotion. I never said that.[/QUOTE] Depression isn't an emotion. It's caused by an excess of a certain hormone.
[QUOTE=Doriol;16193271]You can't choose whether or not to feel a certain emotion. I never said that.[/QUOTE] Just like you can't choose whether you're gay or straight. There are gay animals, which pretty much proves it is genetic as animals probably don't have the ability to "choose" their sexuality. Or you can look at the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biology_and_sexual_orientation#Physiological]physiological differences in gay people[/url], which also proves that something is up.
[QUOTE=doggunn;16193304]Depression isn't an emotion. It's caused by an excess of a certain hormone.[/QUOTE] Depression makes you feel sad.
[QUOTE=The golden;16193338]But that's not entirely what depression is.[/QUOTE] He's a troll spouting pseudoscience. I say we leave.

[QUOTE=Doriol;16193326]Depression makes you feel sad.[/QUOTE] Depression is a disorder that makes you feel sad, caused by an imbalance of hormones. Homosexuality is caused by different balances of hormones. Neither of which are chosen.
