Sexuality is not a Choice. Don't choose it for others

I know have not made any new post recently. Now I have something that I really want to address. Please enjoy, thank you.


For most people who watch my Youtube, and for those that I am friends with know that I do not identify as straight. What I am saying is I am attracted to both men and women. To be gay or bi is not a choice. There are many meanings to the word gay. The one I am talking about is this. “pertaining to, or exhibiting sexual desire or behavior directed toward a person or persons of one's own sex; homosexual: a gay couple.” We do not choose our sexuality.
I met this man by the name of AJ Frank at my job. His full name is not going to be used. This is me trying to be nice. He seemed like an alright guy at first. After hanging out with him twice I figured out how much of an ignorant person he is. Normally I would not put peoples names in like this, but I feel like it was needed. Anyway he mentioned how sexuality is a choice. He said he could prove it because his sisters were both with someone of the samesex and someone of the different sex. I guess one was lesbian and then she found that the could like guys, and the other sister was straight and she found that she liked girls. First of all they did not make that choice. You cannot help who you are attracted to. Laci Green in her Homosexuality and Bi sexual videos make it clear that sexuality is fluid. There is science indicating that you are born with your sexuality. For example, I have a brother that may or may not like men. I have an Aunt that is married to a man, and she still identifies with being bi sexual. My dad, when he was alive, admitted to me that he was attracted to men. He was bi, but he was attracted to women more. According to For the Bible Tells Me so, if you are a boy, depending on your birth order you are more likely to be gay. What that part of the documentary is talking about, is that if you are the youngest son and you have a few brothers before you, your chance of being gay goes up quite a bit. The percentages are between 28%-48%. The brothers indeed in fact have to be from the same mother. However, this study does not have an effect on females at all. When a woman is pregnant and its a boy her body thinks of it as a foreign object nonetheless her body tries to feminize it. The woman’s body is able to do this better with each passing son. However, everyone who is a gay male isn’t gay because of this. There are other factors with our genetics.
To this man facts did not matter. I told him to lose my number. He did not do such a thing. AJ kept texting me. He even thought it was funny to call my a bra size. I personally found that to be very sexist. Going further he stopped texting me for awhile. That was when I thought he forgot about me. Then today he tries to talk to me, and I told him again that just because his sisters are a way does not mean that it is a choice. They didn’t choose it. Anyway going on I told him that if he wanted to talk to me that he should do some research and watch some Laci Green videos. That was when I hung up. After that he started to text me. By the end of it he said that I knew nothing. He said “You know nothing Lina.” That made me laugh, because I naturally thought of Jon Snow. That is for anyone who is a Game Of Thrones fan. If anyone knows me, they know that I am a Gay Rights activist. This is what I research. I have dedicated my life to this cause. Not to mention It has been a topic that I have been researching for my undergrad thesis paper. It’s not my official subject yet. Going further, I have been studying anything pertaining to sexuality. I did not want to be attracted to both genders when I first figured it out. Most people don’t because there is this stigma behind it. People are so negative when it comes to people not being straight. Researching helped me become comfortable with who I was.
