That or you have no sexuality at all because you're a baby.

you have a genetic predisposition to a whole load of shit when you're a baby that aren't realise until you're older

Can't say someone is born that way, I also can't say I know what a person like that might be thinking.

There "might" be some degree of influence of how a person was raised since infancy.

But there is nothing but speculation.

To me there's only one fact: once you've started looking at things in an unplatonic way, you've already chosen, and there's no turning back.

All you'll decide from then on is simply whether you accept it, deny it in vain, or get straight up ****ing confused.

No idea. All I can say for certain is that it hasn't happened to me yet, and i can't imagine how that could change.

Sexuality is fluid.

All humans start as females (have XX chromosomes), but my theory is that with gay males, the second X doesn't fully change to Y, and with lesbians, the second X partially changes to Y.

Except not every gay person is like that... so...

but they still choose to have sex with the same sex, which is what being gay is really all about, everything else is just a show

I think gay is more of the same sex attraction. Rather this just same-sex sex. And they don't choose who they're attracted to. So, I disagree.

Nice try, though...

Literally anybody who says they switched the left claims they were closted the whole time.

We have all aorts of animals that switch, why not humans?

Maybe society and environment work together to trigger homosexual epiginetic markers and it has some evolutionary advantage on small scale we dont realize, that looses its benefits when applied to larger populations?

We dont know and never will as any studies done on homosexuals is deemed evil or bigotrd unless the studies purpose is to prove how normal or good it is.

No lifestyle is without issues, even heterosexual ones. Its odd how their lives are supposedly perfect if it wasnt for all the homophobes and homosexuals have only positive influence in their communities, while there are loads of discussions of what negative affects other communities have on the general population, especially white communities (but you cant discriminate against white people its impossible no matter how nasty we get its always truthful and justified!)

I don't it always means they're closeted. They might not know until they meet that one person, or they may not understand their feelings at the time.

As for those advantages, there's a really big disadvantage. And that how much you're treated like an outcast in most groups. The little things being easier to relate and understand may be a little true. But not always just because you're the same gender...

Most groups is an exaggeration exceeding hyperbole, unless you're talking on a worldwide basis when China and India kinda make up the difference. I think you have it mixed up with some other, possibly illegal shit.

Both are fluid, or can be. Some people are fixed, some flexible, some with lots, some with none at all.

Only recently has being gay been ok. Even when I was in highschool, it was still only ok with like people my age or younger, for the most part. But before late high school, anybody who was gay was usually picked on. Even after high school, some people still didn't understand how something like that exist. So, it's a little better these days. But there are still a lot of people who are not ok with it. I don't know what "illegal shit" you think I'm getting it mixed up with.

Most people are bi and have a preference for males or females.

Homosexuality most likely stems from childhood trauma and molestation.

By that logic every sexuality stems from that.

Also, key word seems to be "reported".

Avoid eatting too much organic foods; I suspect something is wrong with the organic foods which may trigger some hormonal changes in people's bodies; kinda like some kind of hormone mutation. Either that or the water people drink; it may be contaminated with some kind of chemicals.

People are attracted to food to satisfy nutritious requirements of their bodies. If someone is suddenly attracted to eating dirt - imho there might be something wrong with them.

The problem there is that the bias against it is far weaker than the advantages that come with it.
