So, I´ve wondering lately, and would like to hear from toshi the biological pov.
Gays defend their gay-ness (not that am against it or anything), as their choice. they like people of their same sex. thats cool with me.
on the other hand, people with chemical inbalances that affect their behavior, like bipolar folks, DO NOT get the chance to choose and say "am bipolar and its my choice to be maniac", but they get labeled as bipolar and according to the docs they have to take their pills to stop being bipolar.
the bipolar folk, within its chemical inbalance, can choose to stay maniac (by not taking pills), and the gay folk, within his/her right mind, can choose to stay or be gay (by not making any biochemical adjustment with pills like bipolars).
Yet the bipolar is called a pacient and the gay is called a free-choice.
why am i wrong comparing both of them?
isnt homosexual behavior caused by chemical inbalances???
OR
is it a choice among non-chemically inbalanced individuals???
if its a choice among non-chemical inbalanced folks... and lust is caused by certain hormones, and the reproductive instinct is caused by another, then how do you explain sexual feelings towards non-fertile beings????
i mean, isnt your reproductive instinct somewhat messed if it leads you to non-fertile beings????
or is gayness a choice made by people in their right chemical balances??, and if so, how can behavior like this be explained in a non-biochemical-imbalance way???
