I was really upset with my sibling for being so forwardly gay around other men in public, and we went to a counselor, to voice my objections and the above comment is what he said that no one is 100% heter or homosexual?
I'm not a counselor, but mt degree is in psychology, and what that counselor told you is extremely unethical. I recommend reporting him or her. While that information MIGHT be true, it is unfounded, and cousnelors are not allowed to push conjecture or personal bias on their clients. And everything we know says that that statement is blatantly false. We don't even know exactly why homosexual people are homosexual since the whole "gay gene" thing has been vigorously disproven since dozens or even hundreds of genes are involved, and we don't know exactly what triggers the mechanism. Tons of straight people would rather die than have sex with their own sex (myself included), so that counselor is pushing personal bias bullshit.
@Weapon77I appreciate your opinion and it did seem a bit over the top based on nothing factual, when the counselor made that statement, but then I too had no information to conflict with what he told me. Thanks again. Happy new Year.
Happy New Year!
Bullshit. He/she is basically admitting to same sex attraction, which makes him/her either gay or bi. They are also promoting the LGBT narrative.
I can honestly say that I was attracted to girls all my life, from the earliest age, and never had the slightest sexual attraction to males.
I don't believe that any assessment of peoples sexual leanings is ever going to be a definite line drawn in the sand. I don't think anyone can make that justification. So much of what we seek from professional practitioners/medical professionals can be based on science, but not all of it. It's an easy determination to say: "you are pregnant". It's easy to say an individual has blue eyes. Sexual orientation is a different matter.
Thank you for including me in the most helpful opinion group :-). I hope you all had a nice Christmas!
Emiliamazing You are welcome as you always have a measured/thought out response to questions.
The counselor is an idiot. They don't have any real answer so they just make things up to tell people what they want to hear. People are born with a sinful nature, and that nature can take them to a lot of places. Ever wonder what people would do if they knew for sure they would never be caught?
@DubiousIntentions True
I upvoted you for "what people would do if they knew for sure they would never be caught. My brother's 'spouse' HATED being GAY and would hide in the house if someone came in to do some work. He did not 'parade his sexuality" I felt sorry for him.
@Dubiousintentions I always thought we were born 'innocent" as a 'blank slate"?

What's Your Opinion? Sign Up Now!That counselor is full of shit. They are simply repeating the politically correct leftist agenda. There is no science behind a statement like that.
Ever since gays started coming out of the closet en masse back in the 70s and 80s, they have been on a campaign to justify it. They try to make it seem normal, or common, or whatever other excuse that want to make.
@WindAtMyBack I thought that but had no way to answer the man when he made that comment. I love my brother, and stood up for him when he married his partner, but just could not justify the relationship, even though his partner was a very good guy. Sad, so very sad, and his partner just died suddenly of cancer, and it just about killed my brother.
I said the same thing and got down voted twice. How did you fare so well?
@DubiousIntentions I don't know. Luck of the draw. :) You also got borderline preachy by mentioning sinful nature.
Sounds like he's grooming you
I have found certain males somewhat attractive. I translated it into wanting to be like them. Two are Matthew McConaughey and Denzel Washington.
There are people who are *mostly* straight but willing to be gay for the right person.
I can't relate, because I don't like dangly things. That's just my two cents.
I mean I think that makes sense, but that's cuz I'm not gay or straight. I'm sure there are people who are 100% gay or 100% straight. I just don't get it that's all. I bet the counselor guy is just something similar, somehwere in between those two opposites. And so he thinks that makes sense. But not everybody is like that I guess so he's just not looking at the full picture.
Like most things in life there is a scale and anyone can be anywhere on any of them.
The only judgement you should be considering really is do you want this person be they friend or relative (or both) in your life.. if you do then what do their sexual preferences make
What a bull leaves in the field.
I don’t know that I buy that. Stereotyping, grouping individuals or making blanket statements is never good / correct. The counselor should have learned that in their first year of psychology classes. There really is no such thing as all…..
I would say your source is incorrect. I am 100%+ straight and have never thought about being with another male.
Thank you for the Like
Sounds like a wishful fantasy promulgated by gays.
I’m a 100 percent straight, I would never do anything sexual with another dude nor would I have gay thoughts so I don’t see how I can’t be 100 percent straight
I’d be curious to find out what they meant because I don’t think I do but I also don’t know everything. Also if you love your brother why is it so hard to support him into happiness instead of control him into unhappiness? What are you afraid of?
I do, and always did support him, What I objected to was his 'outwardly' gay behavior towards other men if he and I went out socially. i. e. (outwardly ogling other men, whether gay or not) I stood up for him as his 'Best Man" when he married his love interest here at Laguna Beach. I was good friends with his 'partner, and many times like his 'wife' better than my brother. My question really centers on whether we all are 100% one way or another.
I’m not sure, as I say I don’t think I am so I’d want to know how they’re defining it.
P. S. My brother's 'spouse" recently died of cancer, and I thought it would kill him. His grief was terrible to see, and I doubt he will ever get over it.
