    I'd agree with most of this, but I think it's (as far as I've seen) more around the younger generation of like 14-18 or whatever. Or rather it's less of a socially acceptable thing and more of a popular/attractive characteristic.

    I'm not speaking on ones personal preference for relationships, that's their choice and that's where I end and to drive this away from that I personally personally don't care what people think of me at all. (Now idk if this is actually unpopular or not just from my personal experience it's not highly looked on.)

    Sometimes people are like this when they're first coming out, especially when they're younger. Also, I don't tend to bring my own sexuality up in conversation unless it's relevant or unless somebody asks me about it.

    I don't believe that all gay people are born that way.

    I believe that some of them are born gay, but a lot of them, possibly even a majority of them, choose to be gay or bisexual for whatever reason.

    I believe it could possibly be a recessive gene.

    I find a christian who doesn't believe in evolution because the bible says nothing about it and a atheist who doesn't believe in god because the bible mentions unicorns to be equally stupid.

    This is really only something kiddies who think that being popular is important do.

    Bisexuality is no more of a choice than breathing while you sleep. Pansexuality garners more on emotional attraction to a person anyway, which many people find more attractive than just physical attraction.
    It's not like you have to be physically attracted to someone to be stimulated via their emotional and mental capacities.

    I'm gay as ****, no ifs ands or buts about it. Women do not interest me, I am only sexually attracted to dudes.

    Some people are genetically inclined to just not care what gender someone is because that's life I guess.

    Needless to say, people who say they're x sexuality for brownie points deserve no attention and should probably be called a dork and shoved in a locker.

    I agree.

    And that's not really even an opinion, technically. Ask most Psychologists, and they'll say that it's way more complicated than either "you're born with such and such a disposition" or "you're not born with such and such a disposition". It's equally affected by genes and psychological development. Of course for some people it may be more one way or the other, but on average it's about 50/50.

    I'd say it's more affected by genes and only affected by environment if the environment is critically biased in one direction
    I live in bible thumper north texas, where people would rather listen to the bible than common sense; I grew up around this constantly, was always told it's wrong to be gay blah blah blah but look at me now.

    If environment were as big as 50/50 there DEFINITELY wouldn't be as many gay people are there are.

    There's a lot of evidence that says hormone's play into deciding a person's sexuality as well (not just that one person's hormones but their mother's hormones in the womb).

    Judge Dredd (the 1995 one) is actually not that bad.

    Somehow I discovered a new one.

    I don't want Sunset Shimmer or anything Equestria Girls related to invade on the main MLP:FiM series.

    I think that we should stop making it look like people who take suicide are victims. After all it's they that choose to end their own lives choice. Nobody forced them to take their own life.

    Zero Punctuation/The Escapist is a dumbass as well as a douchebag.

    Yet he calls himself a video game "reviewer."

    HAH. NOW THAT'S FUNNY.

    Did he murder your family or something?
    It's okay to not like someone but calling him or her retard is not okay.
