I don't think it is. I think we are all born and have both biological and environmental influences that make us who we are. I do not think that any baby is born gay (prisoners, gay for the stay) I don't think there is anything wrong with being attracted to people with the same sex as you, as long as it is consensual, and of a legal and mental age for capacity of understanding. Be happy. I'm just your average straight woman with children. I wonder how gay/lesbian people disagree with me, but claim that transgenderism is not innate. To clarify, are we born gay/lesbian? if not, why not? and if you believe that nonsense, why do you disbelieve transgenderism? (I'm very gender critical, non religious, and in full support of 'gay/lesbian' rights' I'm interested to know peoples thoughts

i think its the way we are born, but its difficult to tell because you don’t start feeling attraction towards people until you approach/reach puberty.

of course it has to be innate to some degree because we wouldn’t know to reproduce
otherwise. id say bisexuality is more socially influenced than homosexuality or heterosexuality.

I recently came to the (probably unpopular) opinion that like gender, who we are attracted to is influenced by society and culture rather than something innate. I think if society encouraged it we'd all mostly be bisexual.
