Very nice site!
 
I know for 100% that you cant help who you are attracted to. That is for sure but I do not believe that homosexuality or hetrosexuality is placed in our genes. So if someone is involved in homosexual acts, they should be able to "flip the switch" on the activity itself. Identical twins have the exact same DNA but there are cases with identical twins where one is gay and one is hetrosexual so that means it can't be in our genes. I truely believe that everyone should be treated equally, gay or straight. No one should be mocked or "punished" for being gay, however I also truely believe that if someone disagrees eith homosexuality, that person shouldn't be looked at as a "homophobic" or "bigot" either. It is more of a religious belief than most ppl think and someone following what God says shouldnt be made fun of either. Romans 1:26-27 says " because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men commited indecent acts with other men, and recieved in themselves the due penalty for their perversion."
 
I totally agree with Eva. You can stop the act of being gay or lesbian but that won't stop you from being gay. I mean seriously, to all those "very" straight people out there, could you honestly say that if you wanted to you could go and date and be turned on by a person of the same sex? There has to be to be attraction. If people could just flip a switch and decide to be attracted or not be attracted to someone, there wouldn't be single people. People would be less choosy and people in unhealthy relationships could flip it and move on without a second thought.
 
I think it is possible that someone can choose to stop acting on their sexuality..... even live a straight life...but inside they will always be gay or lesbian....its not something they can change.....
 
i'm an 18 year old african american bisexual woman and i have tried for pretty much my whole life to not be attracted to woman but its not possible. its like trying to stop being black but it just doesnt happen no matter how much you try to cover it up or put on an act. also I have decided to never come out to my family they are so religious and constantly talk about how disgusting gay people are and call them "freaks" and "weirdos" and "filthy" and "wrong" and I just can't ever come out to them. :-( its an awful way to live. but its my reality
 
Hey guys, No chance that people can change their sexualities. Seriously, its a much harder life, being gay, bisexual, pomosexual, etc. I have two mothers and they both said if they could pick, they'd have me be straight so I could avoid all the pain they went through. I'm pomosexual (hearts, not parts) and I seriously think that the anti-gay bulls*^% that all these young kids are saying needs to stop.
 
Hey Tyra. I think people need to understand that people who are gay are the same as you and me. People shouldn't discriminate against them for it. It's cruel. We are all the same. It doesn't madder if straight, gay, black, white, yellow, green. We are all the same.
 
I agree 100% with Kpossible page 1 comment 6.
 
In the past I would've thought it impossible for someone who's gay to go straight, but I have a guy friend of mine who since the last year of high school was gay, and just ran into him a month ago, and I was shocked to see that he's now married to a woman who has always been a woman and they are expecting their first baby now. so I guess a gay person can go straight.
 
UMMM idk i have always liked and dated girls but i ended up leaving this mean witch for a angel from heaven
 
Honestly I cant say whether you can or cant because im not gay but i think that if you can be bi sexual then you can turn being gay and straight whenever you want plus if you can become gay you can stop being gay and i believe that everyone becomes gay because in the Bible God says things about a man and a woman being together nothing about men and men and women women and it really makes me angry when ppl say that you are born gay umm... hahaha no you are not because God created eveyone on this planet and any other planet that may have forms of life and he would not make a person who contrsdicts his word and truth I mean think about it this means you choose to be gay or straight and plus i think ppl turn gay from bad experiences with the opposite sex because they feel rejected or whatever and decide that only another member of the same gender would or even could come close to understanding their feelings or preferences
 
I am girl and I am attracted to women. I love it. Even if you try, you can never get rid of your feelings completely. It's DNA. Go Gays!

I feel that some women can turn the switch off and on because the reason that they are gay are maybe for the wrong reasons like 1. Mad at men because their lack of commitment 2.Feel that they don't live up to societies beauty and no man would ever want to stay with them for ever. 3.Being put in certain enviroments and have bad things happen to them maybe the most common. Gay men on the other hand I think would be harder to turn back because of physical aspect, well this is just my opinion so don't shoot me.
