I've put this under mental health, because I wasn't sure what else to : please don't get offended by that.
Now, we all know that your sexuality isn't a choice. But what determines whether you are homosexual? Nature (you are born homosexual) or nurture (your surroundings) ?
I know people who say they remember being gay forever. I know of others who turn, when they go to same-sex boarding schools. I read a book about one of the most famous all-boy schools in the world. The guy was saying how they didn't know a world outside of the school, and growing up meant they had urges. Because of this, they experimented sexually, and this is where many people 'turned'.
But is it both? Is it different for different people?
I also heard that those who lack a father figure are more likely to be homosexual. This is obviously a generalization, but is there any merit to that statement?
Thanks! (link)

Nurture 100% nobodys 'born' gay! Its like are you born with a language? No. You learn it, by surroundings and such. People are stupid these days in society and think they were born gay just because they dont remember having a girlfriend or boyfriend or some stupid thing. I promise 100% that people are NOT born gay. I dont care what people say they learn it. Just like how you learn how to right an how to speak. Your not born with personality either. You gain certain personalitys from where you grow up. Like if I was born in a bad foster home I would grow up with a tough heart and it would take my soulmate to open it up and get me to love people. And with me being born in a loving family I get grounding and learn my wrong doings and I will surly grow up to be a good girl! (btw Im 13/f) This is my opinion (and fact) so just push this away if you like but, this us the truth :) have an excellent day!

So if people cannot be born gay, that means they cannot be born straight? So people are born asexual? And so from what do people pick up the behaviour? By that logic, everyone with straight parents has to be straight?
In regards to language, you learn it. But a child has the ability to learn a language in a silent environment.
You can't claim your answer to be the truth. This isn't a true or false question. You're 13, it's obvious that you really don't have much steady experience in philosophy, etc, etc. That's not intended as an insult.
