I support the hormone theory, rather then the gene one. It's not a choice in any case, it's just a matter of WHICH physiological factor contributes mostly to homosexuality. It's not determined by hormones in the body while the child is born already, it's all about the hormonal ballance in the womb. It's critical to have a precise amount of testosteron (eventhough it's a male hormone it's critical to the development of both sexes.. it's the hormone that builds human sexuality from the ground up) while the fetus is being developed, if you want to get a 100% straight individual (there's a recipe for "male sex drive" hormonal mix and "female sex drive" hormonal mix). Just slight variations in this ballance causes later variations in the sexuality (for instance a female fetus with a slightly different ballance of hormones, which might resemble male sex drive more then the female sex drive, would produce a homosexual or bisexual female (depends on how much the hormonal mix is closer to male sex drive). The fact is that it's immensely hard to get that PRECISE ballance needed for a 100% straight person to be developed. Which means that human sexuality is a fluent thing, full of dynamics and diversity. Even straight men might prefer butch females sometimes, or straight girls might prefer more femme orientated guys. Even these differences in personal taste show us the vast dynamics of human sexuality. I still claim there's no such thing as a 100% straight or a 100% gay person. We're all just in a more or less close proximity to one of the sex drives that was determined with the hormonal mix in the womb. While bisexuals are somewhere in between.
