Why are you gay?

[SpankThePony]

If I had any confidance I could probably go into a long winded analasis of the question, and then my potencial answers, including speculation on early failed relationships, a natural difficulty relating to either sex for varying reasons, an in depth look at my own personality and the kind of features I find attractive in another and wheather they are typicly viewed as male or female and finish up with the basice statement of;

"I can't be sure."

That is of corse if if they actualy were to remain conshous as I suck up all the air in the vacinity to deliver my answer

Of corse I dont actualy have confidance so my repply would probably be; What makes You think I'm gay?

I like a challenge. Being a straight, white, Christian man was just too easy.

I can't change my skin color without getting cancer from the tanning booth. I'm too poor to turn my outtie into an innie (plus, I like it as an outtie). I don't practice enough for a change of religion to make a difference. Being gay was the biggest card to play.

Always was and not sure why.

You could look through my life to try to find out why and if there was a moment in my life that made me gay, or perhaps a number of them. I certainly had and have a poor relationship with my father, who was an alcoholic (and is sober now, but our relationship isn't great anyways), and use that, but I don't know.

Personally I believe that being gay comes down to a genetic predisposition. The purely genetic argument doesn't explain some things, and the purely environmental argument doesn't explain it either. So, I believe there is a gene, or genes that dispose you to being gay. Doesn't mean that you will be gay, just that you are much more likely to be gay. Sort of like things like high blood pressure and high cholesterol, if the genes are in the family it doesn't mean that you will have either, but you are much, much more likely to.
