This is a debate older than me. Its specifically in response to a request from a thread discussing gay and lesbian.
My personal opinion goes something like this.
I believe that a persons sexuality is a combination of both. I think at some level that Kinsely scale is probably kinda accurate. But I also think it is theory. A well established and researched theory, still a theory. I think if your not at the extreme ends of the scale nurture can play a significant roll in the road you choose. And that if you are closer to the middle (of the scale) I would say it can be a choice. While I believe that your foundation of wants will likely remain the same. The compromises to those foundations can adjusted depending on your environment. I.E. available partners, peer approvial, ect.
I believe that even while the research done may show support for one theory or another. That at this point they are still theories.
I believe that I will love my kids regardless. And that this particular issue would not warrant much consideration from me in that regard.
