There is no evidence that "nurture" plays any role in sexual orientation.
Sexual orientation, including being gay, is believed to be determined by a combination of genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors. While some research suggests a biological basis for sexual orientation, the exact causes are still not fully understood. Both nature and nurture likely play a role in shaping an individual's sexual orientation.
Being gay may go against certain social norms due to cultural or religious beliefs, historical biases, and stereotypes. These norms can contribute to discrimination and stigmatization of individuals who identify as gay. However, societal attitudes are evolving, and more acceptance and understanding of LGBTQ+ identities are growing in many places around the world.
Sexual orientation is not chosen or changed due to marital status. Being gay, straight, or bisexual is part of a person's inherent orientation, not an outcome of being married or single. There is no specific percentage or statistic for the number of married men who "turn gay."
No, you should not shun gay people. Everyone deserves respect and acceptance regardless of their sexual orientation. Embracing diversity and being inclusive is important for creating a more compassionate and understanding society.
Sexual orientation, including being gay, is a complex aspect of human behavior influenced by multiple factors, including genetics, biology, and environment. It is not a choice someone makes, but rather a natural part of who they are. Being gay is a normal variation of human sexuality and cannot be attributed to any single cause.
Approximately the same. More men are out because gay men are slightly more accepted in society than lesbians.
Uh.. from God. And from their parents. Just the same as straight people. From nature, not nurture.
A testable hypothesis could be: "Individuals who identify as homosexual will exhibit consistent patterns of brain activity in response to sexual stimuli compared to heterosexual individuals, supporting the hypothesis of a biological basis for sexual orientation."
Being gay has no effect on family values, one way or another. Family values are about ethics. Being gay is just part of nature.
You can't "be gay" to someone. Being gay is a sexual orientation, and nothing more.
Nope. It's actually just as natural as heterosexuality.
Why are some people straight? Why are some people gay? Sexual orientation is just something people have, whether through nature or nurture. It just means someone is attracted to members of both sexes.
They are one and the same for me. I'm a man who happens to be gay.
Being gay didn't start from religion. It's a part of nature. There have been gay people long before any religion was ever established.
No, this does not relate at all to being lesbian. This can, however, enable women to "fake" being lesbian more easily (like in pornographic movies to appeal to male audiences) which may lead people to believe that there are more lesbians than there really are in the world. The truth of the matter, is that there are more gay males than lesbian woman.
No more than being straight.
Second thoughts about being gay? Being gay is not a choice. It is part of who you are. It is your nature. Normal for you. Gay guys might sometimes think it's a difficult life ahead, but the challenge can make them stronger. There are lots of "It gets Better" videos on Youtube about gay people who became stronger through the challenge.
Yes, there have been gay people for more than 100,000 years. Homosexuality is part of human nature.
