So then (pink_trike) you are saying homosexuality is a choice, and not a biologically driven need?

 

 

There is a difference between desire and behaviour - the answer is choice.

 

All of the points you made come down to choice.

 

 

I personally don't believe it is a "choice". I used to think it was, but after lengthy discussions with gay people (for the record I myself am not)

 

but to them it was a desire. Something deep seeded, something that they felt and not something that they chose.

 

Now of course performing the act (behaviour) is a choice to some degree.

 

However the initial attraction was not.

 

 

It's also worthy of note that primates and humans are the only creatures which mate for pleasure...(and there are no recorded incidences of primates performing homosexual acts) which means it is a condition only (in nature) isolated to humans - which tells me that other factors need to be considered...

 

 

The main issue is that "feelings" can never be explained with logic, and as science tries to break everything into logical data - I dont feel science will ever have the answer to this one, and certainly not a quackdom like psychology.

Thats right on... i completely agree with that. thank you.

Update: As of July 15, 2010 the gushing was plugged deep within the ocean, ongoing efforts are in place to clean-up

Easy to understand and great subject matter, interesting points. Don't repeat yourself!

Respectfully.

I've used traditional bullet proof vests, this liquid vest looks like a great idea, lighter though? 45%? I'm gonna have to see some more examples to believe it.
