I once experimented with having sex with another guy when I was younger. He was bi, I was curious. To others, he was attractive and I have to admit to respecting his physical appearance, though I found I couldn't be attracted, despite the attempt to do so. I couldn't even get my dick hard to try it. I came to the conclusion that I was straight. I've never been attracted to other men. I had actually been curious enough about the so-called "bi-paradigm," though I didn't call it that, to see if I, too, was bisexual, and clearly I was not.
As I've said before and as I've linked in this thread before to information supporting this; homosexuality is not attributed to any one factor but instead to multiple factors. Given that we are not sexual creatures at birth, and indeed are not sexual creatures until puberty, yet those who are homosexual have exhibited tendencies to similarities in their genetic makeup that are similar to one another in very key areas, the simple, straight [heh, sorry] answer is that genetics are a key factor, yet not the only factor. There is no "gay" gene that if switched one way or another determines your sexuality; it's a developmental thing, with genetic factors coming into play to determine likelihood. But it is no more a choice than the choice to become sexually mature. It is simply something that happens through a matter of course.
I tire of chasing Christians around in circles trying to make them see logic on this, however. If you're an ignorant dipshit about it then you're always going to be an ignorant dipshit about it. If you want to slam your hands over your ears and screech the la-la song, fine, you have fun going through life with the maturity of a twelve year old, I'm sure you'll come to do great things, and have fun with that.
