ah....uh i dunno..i never really think about it in terms of counting. i've had 3 real relationships. hooking up...varying degrees and depending on where at. haven't really felt stable enough in my situation (i've moved about 5 or 6 times in the past 3 years) to really put a big push on trying for a relationship and i'm not too big on having sex outside of a relationship just because i tend to get attached.

I want to know why this is.


Why do you need the qualifier religeous? Some people think that - religeous and non-religeous people.

For instance, I spoke to a trainee catholic priest who happened to be gay. He said that the church accepted that people were either born gay or not (i.e. they didn't choose) but, the church expected that gay people should remain celibate. Of course this wasn't an issue for him as he would have had to have remained celibate anyway. He didn't even particularly agree with the celibacy for gays thing but as I say, in a practical sense it didn't bother him as he had to remain celibate anyway.

So in other words, many religeons accept that sexuality isn't a choice but they just say that homosexuals have the choice whether or not to remain celibate (which is a seperate issue). Of course, I don't agree with this at all but I still think it is worth noting that it is a different issue to whether people accept that sexuality isn't a choice.

Yes, I know not all religious people are homophobic. I also know not all homophobic people are religous; I've met plenty. But this thread was specifically about religious people who believe you choose your sexuilaty. It was in response to a comment made on another thread.


Why are you so obsessed with religeous people? Why aren't you interested in why non-religeous people would have the view that people 'choose' to be gay?

I didn't choose to be attracted to guys as well as girls. In fact, had I the choice I'd be attracted to neither, as it seems like too much of a headache.

its unfair and just because someone is different it dosen't mean they are bad. ignorance like this makes me mad. :x

People don't just wake up one day and say "Hey I think from now on I'm going to be gay!" Gay people say that ever since chilhood they've felt that way. Something is wrong with their body.
Scientist once took the brains of transexuals. They got to a certian area and they noticed diffrences in the brains. Some scientists think that women who are lesbians may have more testrone than a woman is supposed to have and that gay men may have higher estrogen levels or something.

Actually, according to some studies, puberty is hitting earlier than in the past. Weird, huh?
