Im 14 and bicurious, somedays i CHOOSE to be with my gay friends and others i CHOOSE to be with straight friends although my gay friends are cuter and we always have so much more fun together

im a flaming homo - i had no choice . Also i had such a problem in grade 8 in a Queensland, Australia public school. Homosexuality is generally more accepted in australia than the usa. My teacher -as it turned out- was a conservative and this subjuect and said that I was just confused and straight. You assume that the teacher will react properly. He did not. I think there should be a homophillic curriculum response. To aviod such issues in the futue :/

@delemastro13 so true :D

[hinataFa101]

It's definitely not a choice. I would give anything to be straight.

the british guy sound pretentious.....

but then maybe just because of his accent..

[jichaelmackson1958]

@mmann66666 Queensland... that explains it then. I live in Victoria and our system prohibits that kind of response. Honestly, goto a school councilor, they are 100% better

7 grade OK so um I"m gay, when i realized i was gay, I certainly knew it wasn't a choice, because i didn't want to be gay, i was scared and i was raised in the bay area, I wan't aware of how it would effect my life, i took a library book called gay rights and it scared the hell out of me, it talked about you could join the army, and all that, anyway it wasn't a choice one day i liked boys and grew a crush on a friend. i returned the book and they took out of the library it was too explicit

Did any of you wake up one day, once you went through puberty, and understood everything, and say, 'I'm going to be straight!". I'm sure you didn't. Being gay isn't a choice, because think about it, could you choose to be gay? If you're straight, would you be able to kiss or have sex with someone of the same gender? No, you'd be unable to, the thought isn't a nice one. Why would someone do that, if that is the case?

And this is coming from a 13 year old.

Stop being ignorant.

Being gay, is okay.

I am a conservative Christian, I'm gay, and I'm ok with it. I haven't had to sacrifice any of my beliefs either. Through careful research of the Bible I and others have come to this conclusion.

It's not through any wishy washy feelings on what we think God wants. We can actually say we believe that the Bible doesn't condemn homosexuality if in the context of a loving monogamous relationship.

If you want to know more please ask as there isn't much room to type here.

Most of us are old enough to have dated around a bit. Did you wake up one day and say, "I will date/sex blondes!"? You probably knew what you liked when you saw it. Homosexuality is a personal preference that no one gets to decide.

The problem with what MissSoyJoy thinks is that if gay is a choice, it means that gay people should expect violence, that it is the consequence of a choice. But it's not, and making life harder for people because of the way they ARE... that's never ever been okay.

[LeNerdGirl]

I dislike MissSoyJoy saying that she has to respect it. I think that in order to not be bigoted we have to want to respect something, because no one can MAKE you respect something. The fundamental of respect is that you believe it in free will and choice, she obviously doesn't actually respect it. Having said that, her approach is far kinder than most.

I'm not going to say whether I'm gay or straight because it's not important.

as a lesbian, i 100% did not choose it. i dont even want it! i have lost many friends and family members by telling them. i am not "disgusting" or "an abomination"! i struggled with i for many years before coming to the conclusion. i dont even want it, so why sould i choose it MissSoyJoy?
