| Heterosexuals are acting on instinct. Homosexuals are the exceptions. Different instincts? I don't know. |

From a great majority natural human and animal standpoint being heterosexual is not a choice after all our bodies have developed to be able to produce in such a manner. After all two gay men or two lesbian women no matter the love can never reproduce together which is ultimately what nature is all about whether we realize it and admit it or not, our drive to produce makes us heterosexual by default.
With that stated I also doubt people simply choose to be gay as well, if they really are gay and not some bi or whatever we have today in this world. I say that because I could never imagine myself being gay, that leads me to believe that something deep within the mindset of someone who is homosexual lends them to be that way. Why that is the case is like deciphering the meaning of life, good luck.:haha:
There is a reason why the overwhelming majority of human society across all cultures is heterosexual, I guarantee its not a choice they made. |

Bull, the human sexual script is completely learned, it's not genetically hard-wired like most people seem to think. By default, we're asexual. |

Do you want a minute to think that all the way through? |

Not at all. Reroduction is an instinct. You can only reproduce with the opposite sex. The brain develops from the inside, and outward(The onion analogy). The primitive reptilian brain in the center is developed first, which gives us basic Survival instincts. First level of survival is the survival of oneself, the second level is the survival of the species, reproduction. |
