I believe that people are born gay or straight. Society and upbringing have very little, if anything, to do with these traits. However, your society and upbringing can effect if and when you come out.

I believe that someone who is gay is born gay, lgbtq members have been around since the beginning of time, they were just more secretive. Society may affect how comfortable you are about being gay, however you cannot control your sexual orientation.

You are born as you. If you are gay that is who you are and you don't have to defend it or explain it. It's no one else business but your own.

Personally, I believe that people are born gay. Despite what I thought throughout middle school, I didn't like boys. I remember in elementary school being attracted to girls. But that's just based on my experience.

There is scientific evidence that a person is born gay, just as a straight person is born straight.
In a society where heterosexual people are the "norm", it wouldn't necessarily make sense that society is making people gay. If anything, society tends to push heteronormative ideals.

There are both types. Some know they are different from a young age and some find out after going through certain amount of things in society.

You are definitely born gay. Society does not have the ability to make someone gay. If you're gay then you're gay.
