Another guy might think you are gay? I thought people only confused you for Richard Sherman?
Do you know that back in the day. homosexuality was considered as a mental disorder?
Do you know, that back in the day, they thought a lot of stupid things that have since been proven...to be stupid?
Now they're switching it to genetics. I don't think there is a clear cut fact on why people are gay. There is no gene to determine whether a person is going to be gay or not so how can you say that they are born that way?
It is something that they are still working on, but, yes, there are genetic factors that play a role in sexual preference.
Why would someone choose to be gay?
Yes, why would they? Usually when people make "a choice", especially a major lifestyle choice, they tend to weigh the pros and cons, and then go from there. Why would someone choose to be gay, over simply being straight, "normal", and accepted?
Has it ever occurred of you that there are people in this world who don't care about being discriminated against? There are people who will not let negative views from otheres affect how they live their life. Michael Sam?????? Did he not take that risk by "coming out" knowing that there will be people against it? I stated earlier that no one is safe from discrimination. So if person so happens to be attracted to the same sex, and they really love that person, why would their care about being discriminated against?
Yes, there are people in this world who are stronger than others and who basically don't care about what people think. And, yes, some of those people are homosexuals who happen to be comfortable with themselves. As you said, people are different; people think and feel differently. Just because one gay person "has it easy" so to speak, does not mean the next person does. A lot of gay people don't. A lot of people struggle with it, get disowned by their families, commit suicide, etc. Now, if it was simply "a choice", why go through all that? Why wouldn't everyone just
simply be straight and be done with it?
