    there aren't more gay guys because heterosexuals aren't willing to change....

    the same backwards logic.

    Science has been making great strides in relation to sexuality. One thing is for certain, that sexuality is not a choice.

    I wasn't born gay and I can't see waking up tomorrow gay so I guess I have no idea.

    I think sexuality is a spectrum and there are both genetic and environmental factors that can contribute to where one falls on the spectrum.

    Yes.

    It may take years to find out that's where their true happiness lies but you can't fault a person for that.

    How many people live an entire lifetime and die having never really gotten in touch with their true happiness?

    Yeah I think some are :), I think we all have varying degrees of 'gay' from between 'no chance' to 'totally'. Some know from the start, other people might have to experiment a little to find their comfort zone.

    I have never been, even remotely interested in "girls", I new as a preteen I was interested in my guy friends as they were in their girl friends, even though I could not articulate the why until I got a few years older then I new it was sexual.

    so, in short, born gay.

    I think that this is the most likely explanation.

    Yep.

    I believe in neither "born this way" nor "everyone is bisexual" crap. The question is only meaninful if you want to social engineer people and resort to the nature>nurture bias.

    What VG is never going to concede though, is that gays can also be sneaky and try to convert straights and bis all the time, too.

    People can usually only talk for themselves. I don't know 'how' the person next to me was born, but I know how I was.

    No
    Edit: No one is born gay or straight. Sexuality is ingrained into us at an older age.
