I was on the bus home today when i overheard this conversation.
"The world is changing! it's like girls are liking girls and guys are liking guys..."
As i heard this, i must say that i totally agree with the speaker. i mean, i definitely see more of the lesbians walking in the streets nowadays and they are also becoming more and more open about it. What i noticed was even those who are seemingly pretty are also in such relationships. Actually, i can understand to a certain extent what might have been an influence in their choice of partners.
There were times when i was in secondary school that i felt the need to protect my best friends. It didn't help that i had a very domineering character plus the short hair that we all had to sport. Also, i spent more time with my girl friends than my guy friends so my fondness of them can give me flashes of extra weird feelings. Well, i guess the fact that i'm in a co-ed school definitely helped.
Another theory i have could be coz they have been hurt by the guys in their life, whether be it their father or their boyfriends. I heard from a friend that her friend became a lesbian because she had been hurt by her previous boyfriends and this gal pal was so nice to her that they fell in love. Some girls might have fathers who are absent or abusive and thus they might have the perception that all males are going to be like this so they rather have relationships with other females.
Well, there are many theories out there and i don't know which is right but i believe (personal belief hor...) that people are not genetically programmed to like people of the same gender. I also believe (person belief again...) that no one is genetically programmed to be the gender they are not born in (ok, there are examples of the XYY males and all but there must be an explanation that i dunno abt... God knows!).
I figured this post might offend some people who happen to read it so must apologise coz i didn't mean to offend anyone... Just voicing out my thoughts... Of course if you wanna leave me hate mails, i also can't help it and i will ignore it...
Ok la... dun think i'm so famous so i think the likelihood of the above situation should be quite small, but nonetheless just to be on the safe side la hor? Singaporeans are "kiasi" wat...

hey
genetic predisposition to homosexuality is yet unproved I THINK. am NOT sure.
But there is supposed to be a genetic predisposition for most character traits i think.
The reason i find this argument problematic is that even if homosexuality were genetically proven it doesn't mean anything.
most character traits are supposed to be genetic anyway. the reason the world isn't full of people who give in to every prompting of their body highlights the human condition.
the fact that genes can predispose us to some stuff doesn't change the fact that part of what it means to be human is to be able to tell our genes to go jump in the ocean and strive toward something better.
after all so many great scientists/ musicians came from truly awful backgrounds and rose out of that to make something of themselves.( Beethoven comes to mind.)
Human ability to transcend our genes and transcend what evolution calls to do is what really differentiates us from being animals.( Personal opinion, may I offend no one).
But its not an excuse for christians to be homophobic and to judge them. the world is filled with people who all had a share in putting christ on his cross.
In the end we're all sinners anyway. and if we cld pull ourselves out of the mess we're in, then we wouldn't need christ anymore.
