" You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave 'em burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance
You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine oh yaaa
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
Ooo.. see that girl, watch that scene, diggin' the Dancing Queen "
Anyone for fondue? -

Obviously if people were born with a sexual preference the implication would be that they are born with sexual desire and an ability to recognize a potential sex partner. Humans may have some instincts but obviously this would be a bit of a stretch to say the least.
On the other hand, the ability to develop a particular sexual preference is as programmed into our genes as other "potentials" such as the ability to learn a language or the ability to stand up on two feet. -

My mistake. I apologize for treating you as intellegent... I'll try not to let it happen too much in the future.
To clarify, my answer was NO, babies are NOT born with a sexual preference. Only the potential for one. I had just gone into a little more detail, that's all... and if you think that babies are born with a sexual preference, then I hope you never have kids. I've seen the results of that kind of twisted mind and it's not pretty. -
raves +2 May 09, 2008 09:30PM GMTIt's because I've made a lot of big sacrafices in the name of making the world better for everyone and I keep getting "attacked" by many of the same people who's world I am working so hard to improve for them... and it's been non-stop for way too long. I miss my wife and I would rather be with her right now than working so hard at something that has cost me more than I had... but I'm not doing it for me.
Your being this understanding helps. I thank you. -

This question has been asked before. Sexuality is determined by a combination of nature and nurture (genetics and environment) according to current research. Among identical twins (identical DNA), sexuality is the same only 50% of the time, so the variance is due to environmental influences. -
