I always thought it is by choice…And it may be true…But there are genetic factors involved which cant be ignored, and after all, who can be certain?
Sexual orientation is located in hypothalamus of the brain, one of the parts of the hypothalamus called sexually dimorphic nucleus is larger in male than in female and takes part in control of male sexual behavior. Well, in gay man’s brain this part is as small as in female’s…Also women have thicker corpus colossum (the part that connects two hemispheres), gay men also have thicker corp. colossum…There are other biological and genetic aspects that show involvement of genetics in this issue…
About what Sip says…There was a famous case, I don’t remember the name…there were identical twin brothers, during circumcision on one of the brothers (how stupid they can be) they cut the organ, and since he no longer had “the organ” the family decided to raise him as a girl…The boy suffered all his life, he wanted to urinate standing, he hated his hair styles, he had a masculine walk despite all the Estrogen shots he was getting…Parents decided to tell him the truth, and right after he learned he ccut his hair, stopped the hormone intake, got married, etc…
So, I really don’t know…

I'm not talking about homosexuality. I'm talking about the latest fad: wanting to have a sex-change.
So, I really don’t know…
Like I said, 99.9% of the cases. I cringe whenever I hear a girl-turned-boy saying something like "I always liked fishing and I'm addicted to sex, therefore I must be a boy" as if all guys like fishing and no girls like sex. The same when a boy-turned-girl says something like "I like wearing make-up and buying purses, therefore I must be a girl" as if every girl does these activities by nature. When I hear this, I think to myself, If someone had told them that they are still boys or girls sexually, regardless of their preferences, would they still choose to change their sex?

Heterosexuality is shoved down our throats all the time.

I think that you misread Nairi's post. She wrote "hetero" not homosexuality.

Nairi Jan, I always thought that being gay is the condition and sex change is the consequence, but I might be wrong…

Some amazing research says that people who sweat less (high levels of vasopressin hormone) are less likely to cheat on their partners, they tend to be monogamous …People who sweat a lot (high levels of vasopressin) are more likely to cheat…

Does that mean most Armenians are natural cheaters?

Actually I think homosexuality is very different than sex change. Like you would never hear a Gay refer to himself as female. Actually the whole point gays are trying to make is that they are Gay (as in physically male but attracted to other males) and in fact very different than females.
But perhaps you are right in that since Gay-ness is treated so negatively in society, that sometimes sex change is an easier solution to deal with being Gay. So maybe sex change is the consequence given that society is so negative on Gays.

I was talking about those who aren't gay, and they are a growing number. As for homosexuals, at least among those that I know or have read about, the greatest majority has never even considered sex-change. Apparently it is still possible to be gay and comfortable enough in your skin to not want to change your sex.

1) you're somewhere and guy walks up to you and tries to flirt with, get your number and ask you out for a date - will you be positive about this?
2) you're going out with a "girl" eventually you find out it's a guy - how positive will you be about this?
