Quote:I don't get how homosexuality becoming more socially accepted is going to make more people want to experiment with homosexuality.  I have had more than one occasion where I have been propositioned to do things sexually with another guy.  Never once did I consider it as I know it ain't for me.  What other people do in their lives doesn't really concern me.  I hate mayonnaise.  If all of a sudden EVERYONE in America was led to believe mayonnaise was the greatest thing in the world, my mayonnaise intake would increase 0%. 

 

 

It has no effect on me either, since I'm strong willed and know what I like, always have been. 

 

That said, not everyone is....especially in todays society - very impressionable....as the example I gave before, I see young women hooking up all the time now in their drunken state at the clubs and what not... I believe that this wouldn't be happening (with such numbers) if the "power of suggestion" didn't already plant the seeds in their minds. I don't believe all those women are truly homosexual, I just think its more along the lines as what I said in my hypothesis - that they want sex and since its still seen as taboo its more exciting to them than just hooking up with a dude, so they go with it....

 

Also, I've heard about high school kids (both male and female) nowadays that have trouble "fitting in", or have trouble finding someone of the opposite sex to like them, so despite being attracted to the opposite sex, they fauxly identify as gay, as an identity crisis, or a solution to their not having the fortitude to stay with it until they find that someone of the opposite sex. How is that "being born gay"???? Being born gay to me is knowing right from the get go that you like the same sex.
