Want to answer more questions in the Sexual Health and Reproduction category?
Maybe give some free advice about: General Sex Questions?
If you dont want to then i dnt think you are gay sorry..

No. If you aren't attracted to other men, you aren't gay.
Simple.

i would say not...if being gay doesnt appeal to you, then that means that you arent attracted to men. At least thats how i see it.

nope. at least not under my beliefs. i believe that being homosexual is all in the temptation of your mind, and there is no way you are just born gay, therefore- no- you cannot be gay if you dont want to be.

yes your can be it could be just because your in puberty or it could be a hormonil inbalance

actually i agree with the individual who said sexuality is a choice if it weren't there wouldn't be ex-gays sure you could have homosexual tendencies but you do not have to act on them if you dont want to just like some people are more likely to be obese they can aviod chocolate if they want to nobody is born gay nobody is born fat

FYI - the rating system works with 5 meaning good, and 1 meaning bad. You might want to revise the 'gay is a choice' guy's rating.
Unless you think he's a lone voice of truth, I suppose.
EDIT: guess so. Why ask when you've already made up your mind?
As for the actual topic, I can personally confirm that sexual orientation is not a choice. If it was I'd be bi; and I'm straight, so it isn't. Isn't empirical evidence nice?

Normally I dont answer a question that already has so many replies. Only doing this since I read that answer in the middle talking about it being a choice.
Being gay is no more a choice than being straight. Your sexual orientation, whether or not it has anything to do with genetics or with your environment, is hardly a decision you make.
I am appalled when people come up with stuff like that. I am straight, and there is no way that I could ever "turn gay" (though it is interesting to note that anyone who claims that it is a choice is inadvertently saying that they could in fact turn gay).
No one knows for sure how a human's sexual orientation evolves. There could be many factors that contribute to it, and in time we may learn what they are. However it is hardly a conscious decision, like choosing what colour shirt to wear, or what cereal to eat.

Yes, just as you can be white if you don't want to. People are born with their sexuality, and society makes it difficult for people who may be gay to accept themselves.
This doesn't change their sexuality, though, and it can often take time for them to be comfortable and accepting of themselves. This is normal, though also painful and confusing.
Is there anyone you feel you can trust to talk to about this? If not, there are lots of informative websites out there that can address your concerns about sexuality. If you don't want others using your computer to possibly see where you've been looking, remember to clear your history.
Best of luck.

No you can't. Being Gay is a choice, no matter what Oprah says. There is no way you can be gay if you don't want to be.
]
Yep. With all the controversy around it, I don't think that anybody would choose to be gay. It's like your eye color--you can't change it.
]
Yeah, that's normally the case.
]
Of course you can. A lot of the time when people first realise that they are homosexual, they wish they weren't. But you should always accept who you are and learn to love yourself no matter what.
