Yeah I think both of that are the factor for someone become Gay, but I personally categorize them in two type, one because love, simply they unfortunately fall in love with someone that was in the same gender, due to reasons, and another because lust, which I believe more due to genetic defect that make them have sexual fetish or preference with same gender.
I have to wonder how many people posting to this thread are gay themselves, or have ever really talked to someone who is.
I have never known a gay person to say it was something they chose; they all describe the awakening of their sexuality the same way straight people do. Is being *straight* a choice? I don't remember choosing to be straight, but I am. Why assume being gay is any different?
It's important to recognize that social media can influence people's perceptions and beliefs about various aspects of life, including sexual orientation. However, it's crucial to understand that being gay is not something that can be forced or influenced by external factors like social media. Sexual orientation is a deeply personal aspect of identity that is determined by a complex interplay of biological, psychological, and environmental factors. While social media can provide exposure to diverse perspectives and experiences, it cannot "Force" someone to be gay. It's essential to approach discussions about sexual orientation with empathy, respect, and an understanding of the complexity of human identity.
