Of course they can being a homo is just like being a hetero it's all about who you like. It's like a man who likes a woman, he may think one woman is more attractive than the other but with gays: men think other are more attractive than women and women think other women are more attractive than men. It's all about feelings. So it is possible for a gay person to become straight they just need to find someone that they think is attractive. And for destiny no one knows their destiny they just think they do according to circumstances. Truthfully, if we can tell what will happen next week how can know what will happen years from now. What we do is want it happen so go all out to get it to happen, but what ever we want to happen may not be our destiny, it's just something we like to do.

In an unrelating thread, I came to diagnose sometimes sun, I dunno if it was a correct diagnore, nor has the diagnose been confirmed.

I get to spekulate that he have had his condition for very long, if not from child hood.

@JPhil,
I could think of attractive woman but that s just based on their persona. I stayed free as a gay person. One taboo helpt me over the next. It made me stronger. I miss children though, must be my femine side...

It's not just attraction by looks I am speaking of but both looks and the inner feeling you get when you think about someone you like. See men like women because they not only look good to them bu they like being around them, touching them, etc. The same with you, you like men because you like being around them, touching them, etc but it's not impossible for you like women as well, you just haven't found one that you like to be with more often. I mean straight men don't like being around every women, but like being around women in general. The same as you with men, I believe. Yet I do think you like being around women as well, but their just isn't one you'd like to snuggle with.

It's just not "either/or".

Many have a little gay side, but can suppress it, some have an extremely strong gay side and can't suppress it.
Specially observed in muslim countries with death penalty for being gay, there are still gay people, that can't help themselfs.

See it like a scale from 0 - 100%, and that can apply to any other human behaviour. If your homosexual tendency are low, it can be suppressed by other things like reason, group think ..etc, but if it's very high, it will overwrite everything, well ofcause dependandt if your other mental areas are strong too.

(I wish i was not on your ignore list because the second part of what you say here i already illustrated. Even if you did a better job)

No you cannot avoid your biology? Don't understand your point?
If it is biological why would our dessisions make us gay or not?
If your born gay your born gay? Not having a relationship with the same sex person doesnt make you strieght. Hence the saying 'in the closet'

The point was not made well by me but did give me the idea for my thread 'avoidance of fate' in general.
It means the biology exists, but more so does the choice circumstance which is overall that which is the prevalent factor.
Which has more validity a bio gay who can be a gay but ultimately must still choose to be, or a bio straight who may not have to make a choice at all?
What is the choice circumstance other than choosing the safer and therefore biologically sounder possition?
The choice circumstance only really exists for homosexuals is what i may be trying to say?
The only ones who can be confused are the homos.

But dont worry i do get what you are trying to say, go to my thread 'avoidance of fate' in general if you wish to discuss further fate and or destiny.

I am not speaking for Pepijn here although he may agree,
Every gay man and woman i know or have known prefers the company of women over straight or gay men.
All of them.
Love has little to do with sex.
Women are easier loved and are easier at loving.

Yes, that's actually true! They do carry the eggs, for all future generations huh. Our sperm is quite useless and disposable.

You are right, it's easy disposable. But au contrair with eggs they keep forming. Also special because they seem to persist even without mitochondric element. I am not a biologist but would an anorganic energy source be a step to an all male human with woman as breeders ? What else we need from a womans egg ?

@Ali phil,
Freud would argue we are born bisexual. If we follow such logic it would be biologically inherent but nurtured, or psychologically developed, to manifest in either a monosexual preference or simply continue manifesting the bisexual tendency as some latent development of monosexual preference. I do not agree with this premise that we are born with innate bisexuality, but it does show how easily one premise moulds our understanding of sexuality.

There is no consensus on sexuality but I still believe homosexuality can be biological and is genetic or even environmentally triggered - if I remember correctly, I recall reading a study on homosexual men's brains and that they resembled a woman's brain in some anatomical features. Socially though, you can look to the younger generation and see a growing trend of androgynous fashion and mannerism which could be considered circumstantial homosexuality.

Intriguing discussion, though there is no conclusive factuality or theory on the matter.

Minimal.

Of course a womans brain looks like a mans because God created Her from Eve and called her a white knight on a horse. Adam quickly called her Eva.

God took a Day OFF.

Eva gave Adam an apple to try.

@Pepijn Sweep,
I think i should add also that i think the only creature that prefers the company of men straight or gay is straight women.
They may feel more comfortable with women but they would prefer to be around men.
