And be assured, many of us are getting pretty damn tired of yours.

Read the review I posted. I'll side with the science on this one, in that sexuality is a complex mixture of genetic predisposition, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices. And being an ER doctor is a far cry from being an expert on human sexuality. So is being an attorney. |

Did you choose your sexuality, or do you remember it always being there and always being hetero? I remember from my earliest thoughts, which were fairly naive, of them being hetero. As a four or five year, one thinks of a naked lady and one gets a certain reaction. One's not sure why but it happens.

IMO, and it is just O, as this is "not my field," anyone who states that any aspect of human sexual behavior can be characterized, described or predicted in absolute terms is either naive, stupid or ignoring their own experience. Moreover, I do nto agree that the issue of immutability is the bottom line here. It is certainly a key facotr in the enitre issue of how sociaety deals wioth gender attraction but it is not determiantive of the marriage question or of any other issue (by itself) in this area. Again, just my opinion.

Show me some clinical data that supports the thesis that some chose their sexuality.
