Or, to put it another way: When did you *choose* to like girls? I've had this debate many times. I personally don't think it's as much as choice to choose to be homosexuals, but I think it's developed at an early age. Call me stupid, dumb and all the childish insults you would want(Seriously fuck off Adam, your hating on me isn't cool, I'm not even paying attention to you so stop asking for my attention), and while it makes no sense in the world why homosexuals would choose to be gay, at the same time I think it's kind of self control. I mean what about trans-sexuals? They choose that lifestyle KNOWNING they are going to catch heat for it. One time I wounder upon a good argument towards this issue at another message board, which I found very interesting. I saved it on my computer. You guys should give it a read... I have no ill will towards homosexuals. I support gay rights and human equality for all. However, in the spirit of academia and general boredom, I have decided to take a closer look at the “are blacks and gays the same” article. In doing so, I have encountered certain arguments that I have yet to find a way around. Additionally, the article also claimed that homosexuality can be found in nature, but I don’t buy it. Why? Well, the devil can quote scripture to serve his own purpose. The author tries to create this broad and deep meaning for “what is homosexuality” then goes on to say this same complex and multifaceted behavior is also exhibited by animals? Does that make sense to you? The only reason the author sited the “scientific research” was to probably aid his credibility in order to appeal to the audience. After all, science is seen as one of the most credible and authentic forms of evidence. If you can get the science to agree with it, then it will not be as easily disputed as opposed to anecdotal evidence and the like. Even so, some scientists might feel some sympathy for the gay community and decide to “go along” with it as a means of promoting human tolerance. And there is NOTHING wrong with that, I’m just saying the author needs to keep his ducks in a row. He can’t define homosexuality among humans but miraculously is able to define it among animals? Yeah ok. By using animals as an example the author basically defines homosexuality as a behavior because isn’t that what animals do? And on with the show………….. In the article, the author argued that if homosexuality is a choice, then heterosexuality must be a choice as well. After doing some thinking, I have reason to believe this argument might be false, because when placed in the context of evolutionary biology and psychology, humans seem to be designed for heterosexuality due to the fact that it is the only way for organisms to reproduce. There has always been a common consensus, also known as evolutionary psychology and Evolutionary biology, that nature exerts its influence on organisms for two main reasons: Survival and reproduction. Evolutionary Psychology and biology rest on the shoulders of Evolutionary theory, but more specifically, the process of natural selection. By these means, many scientists have argued that nature’s main intention for all organisms is survival and reproduction. Evolutionary psychology and biology is used to explain mating selection, mating rituals, and also include certain physical characteristics such as the distinctions between the male and female body. Some examples include female hip to waist ratio, physical symmetry, pheromones, and so on. In light of this, one could say that males are specifically designed to mate with females. Consequently, the argument that if homosexuality is a choice then heterosexuality must be a choice as well might be false. Human bodies are equipped for heterosexual reproduction. Homosexual reproduction is impossible. If homosexuality or bisexuality, for that matter, was nature’s intention as a way to fulfill its will (reproduction), women would be able to get other women pregnant and the same goes for men. Asexual reproduction a prime example of the lengths nature will go to allow reproduction. Therefore, if nature allows asexual reproduction, it should be able to allow homosexual reproduction as well. Since heterosexuality is the only natural means for humans to reproduce, it cannot be a choice because it fulfills natures function. Hermaphrodites probably represent a more “truer” form homosexuality because nature has equipped these organisms with a means to reproduce through heterosexual and homosexual means, although at such a point, the distinction between male and female truly no longer exist. Nevertheless, these organisms are equipped to impregnate others as well as to be impregnated themselves, which seems to equate to hybrid of homosexual and heterosexual reproduction. Finally, some may argue that if nature’s intention is reproduction, then why humans don’t reproduce every time they have heterosexual sex. Nevertheless the equipment is there. If organisms do not reproduce, it’s because they choose not to do so because in some cases, the reason might have to do with survival. This is why I think it COULD be argued that heterosexuality is not just a choice because humans are inherently built for it. According to Evolutionary psychology, one of nature’s prime directives for organisms is reproduction. And in humans, it seems as though the only means of accomplishing this order is through heterosexuality. P.S. You gave an example about how Roman men were having sex with one another as well as reproducing to argue that reproduction can still occur in a homosexual environment. However, if homosexuality can be defined as attraction to the same sex, this probably entails arousal as well, and arousal entails intercourse even if none takes place. Therefore, it makes it very difficult to separate the act of sex from the homosexuality especially if an organism can ONLY be aroused by a member of the same sex. This represents a block to reproduction. In Ancient Rome, this was not the case because attraction was not exclusive because, although many men may have been involved in homosexual acts, they were still able to be aroused by women and therefore reproduce.
