Best Answer

Sexual orientation is an enduring pattern of attraction-emotional, romantic, sexual, or some combination of these-to persons of the opposite sex, the same sex, or both. According to mainstream medical and scientific organizations, it is developed during the early stages of development in a mother's womb.

A person of one particular sexual orientation can choose to have a sexual experience outside of that-for example, a heterosexual person in a relationship with a bisexual person. Bisexual persons are the only persons who have an innate choice of sexual relationship. There is little evidence to suggest sexual orientation is learned, as people of all sexual orientations are almost always born to heterosexuals.
