Can I correct something that Highlight said and a lot of people believe.
No one is born homosexual...or heterosexual. We are born asexual. Children have no notion of heterosexuality or homosexuality or sexuality full stop. They just are. What is important to them is love, food, warmth, sleep and cuddles.
The development of our sexuality is determined by our environment which includes our family situation.
-- I have found that to be incorrect.
I have spoken with a number of homosexuals began resisting their homosexuality from a very early age because family, environment, society, standards, etc. dictated to them from birth that heterosexuality is the way a person should be.
My own nephew knew of his homosexual leanings before he was even a teenager. He kept it from his family because he knew how they felt about homosexuality as per the church, etc. He stated his own father always had a long litany of "gay jokes" so he felt it best not to wreck things until he was on his own in college.
If what you said was true, this would not happen for anyone within that community.
