Welcome home Smedley :-)

I do not think it is reversible as I do not think it is a condition. I do think some people's sexuality is 'fluid, but bisexuality has that covered generally. As I said much earlier in the thread, of course gay people still marry opposite genders. It's not really rocket science that they have and do. Lots' of people try to 'conform' to the het stereotype and it impossible to to do, eventually letting their own trues sexuality through. Some stay in the closet, Some kill themselves.

To those who think a person can change sexuality then why do people kill themselves rather than become something else? If it were that simple I am sure they would just change. Change is better than death. I postulate they do not change because they cannot change. So why should they be expected to or need to?

Yes, some people are unhappy with their own sexuality but I further postulate that the unhappiness is far more environmental/cultural than it is intrinsic. Politics are not involved, liberalism, idealism, feel-gooding sisterhoods or anything. It's a humanity issue. Let people be who they are and keep your nose out of their affairs. Look after your own more and the rest will fall in place. It's really quite that simple with sexuality.

I, too, have heard of people 'reforming' their sexuality.... but I jave not believed it for a minute. And, even if such phenomena exist I think it must be extremely rare. In sexuality no-one should look down on anyone. We ALL have more more in common with each other than we do not. Those differences are often what makes life interesting and relationships worth having (at all sorts of levels)

This is just my opinion when all said and done. It does not matter that I have to be right. It does not affect me. But being open minded about homosexuality with never do me any harm either (except from the insults I may have to suffer for daring to allow gay folk breath!)
