Dear His Way Out Ministries…
Do Homosexuals Choose to Be Homosexuals?
Careful distinctions need to be made when answering this question. Engaging in homosexual behavior is not the same thing as experiencing homosexual desire. Behavior is chosen; sexual attraction is not. Many who identify themselves as homosexuals tell of “feeling different” at a very early age, and this “difference” developed into homoerotic desire in adolescence. Clearly choice does not play part in such subjective experiences of gender confusion. But neither do such experiences indicate a “natural” homosexual disposition, nor do they lead inevitably to homosexuality.
