chosen.content: It is well established that sexual orientation is not a choice, but a biological trait determined by an individual's genetics. Attempts to “encourage” homosexuality are harmful, because they suggest that being LGBT+ is something to be discouraged or fixed, rather than something to be celebrated and accepted. Homosexuality is perfectly natural and is no more a choice than any other part of someone's identity. In the United States, numerous governmental and social organizations have declared that no research has ever established that sexual orientation is a choice, and it is likely to remain so in the foreseeable future. Even the American Psychological Association acknowledges the unchangeable and non-pathological nature of sexual orientation, stating in their official position statement that “The best scientific evidence indicates that sexual orientation is not a choice, but is instead determined by a complex interaction of environmental, biological, and genetic factors”.

rejected.content: Genes play a role in our sexual orientation, just like they do in many other biological processes. Research has shown that people with certain genotypes are more likely to identify as LGBTQ+ compared to those with other genotypes, indicating a genetic component. Additionally, a wide range of sociological, cognitive, and behavioral factors can play a role in influencing our sexual orientations, so while genetic predispositions can exist, it's not necessarily a case of ‘choosing’ your sexual orientation.
