Could you make the concious decision NOT to eat cake? I'll bet you could, but someone who's crumbled under the temptation time and time again might not be able to say no. THe reason sex and food are so similar in context is because both are instincts we have, involving an appetite.

If you're addicted to anything then you can curb your addiction. You can work to become not-addicted..[/QUOTE]

You can't work at becoming gay or straight, it's built into you. If you want to compare sexuality to food, then compare it to a need for food. You're engineered to be attracted to one sex or the other, or both, in the same way you're engineered to need food to survive. It's coded into you, there's nothing you can do that will change it..[/QUOTE]

Ok, we're engineered to procreate with the opposite sex, if you want to talk "design". Nothing else.

Attraction is purly a spiritual/intellectual situation. There's no difference between a gay man's body and a straight man's body.

Sure, you can pretend, but that's all it can ever be - a pretence. You can get married, and have children, and go through the motions every night, but you'll never feel the same as a straight man would performing those actions. In the same way, you can convince yourself that you don't need to eat, but your body knows differently..[/QUOTE]

That's what I'm talking about. You're body knows you need to eat as well as it knows you're built for sex. The problem lies with OUR use of eating/sex. We eat more and more until what USED to be a lot to us is now a regular meal. The same goes with sex. There is no formidible argument for homosexuality. Not one...that doesn't mean it's not widely defended by people who won't see it for what it is. That's not to say that gay people are any worse than you or I. It's important you know I mean THAT as well.

Finally, why the fuck did a baby's lack of sexuality come into conversation? Of course babies don't have a sex drive - they're -babies- for crying out loud. That doesn't mean that they won't grow up to have a sex drive, and it doesn't mean that once that sex drive develops it won't be targeted at a particular sex. So yes, you can be born gay because you're born with it hard coded into who you are. The fact that you're not attracted to men from the instant your mother gives birth to you doesn't change a damn thing.[/QUOTE]

Babies arn't born with sex drives - dismisses that anyone's "born" gay.
Now you're arguing that it could be written in us like some fatefull coding about what we're supposed to like...but that would serve no logical explanation (nor do you have any proof) as to WHY nature would've given us this quality. It's NOT abundant in the animal world, despite over populations of animals, so it's no method of pop-controll either.

What I'm doing is asking questions as to WHAT homosexuality is. So far I've found nothing other than answers telling me it's what sex becomes when left in the hands of humanity for too long.

Think about this; if sex is a divine creation with a perfect purpose, than it will niether be exploited, nor idolized (much like it is now)...I believe humanity has yet to see it's true sexuality
