Human sexuality is hard wired. And it is that hard wired determined self is what perceives its environment. If you throw a small stone or a big stone in the sea they will create different splashes. It's not the sea - the sea is uniform, but the unique quality of each stone that determines the splash. Humans are not programmed to be attracted to both sexes. Any cultural influence that persuades someone to believe they are bisexual is purely psychological. As I said, it's a result of half-repression of full homosexuality. The way genetics works means that a brain is either fully gay, or not gay at all.
Crying, smiling, the desire to learn, anger, mistakes, reflexes, thought, perception, association..
Hahahahahaha!We may not be fully equipped with the knowledge to predict everything a human will do, but we are pretty close.
See if you can find any of your lecturers who agree with your statement above
But what are humans but a complex mix of chemicals? Do you believe in a soul, seperate from the chemical reactions in our brains? I think evolutionary psychology proves that we are completely at the mercy of our genes. We may not be fully equipped with the knowledge to predict everything a human will do, but we are pretty close. Unfortunately I don't know enough about neuro psychology but my aim is to study in that area.
and by the way I nearly always get firsts in my essayz.
While I have happily been co-habiting with my girlfriend for a number of years and prefer fanny to bumhole, the decisive arguments and acrobatic wordplay in this thread are causing feelings of sexually attraction to Steve Blunt. Which is sort of paradoxical when you think about it
best not to though
Hahahahahaha!
You're like one of those artificial intelligence guys back in the 70s who said we'd have robot servants by the year 2000. See if you can find any of your lecturers who agree with your statement above - I' be very very surprised if you did
I think what I'm getting at is that if we can't even predict every single thing a machine does, how can we predict everything a human does, when unlike a computer, humans have a cognitive complexity that far exeeds any technological complexity we could ever construct?
I totally knew you were going to say that...
Genetics? I thought you were an undergraduate psychology student.
And the sea? Do we all live in the sea? What's uniform? I don't know what you're comparing a sea to.
And even if someone consciously chose to be bisexual, how can you argue that it doesn't exist? It exists because it is there. There are biological and cultural and social and personal factors in all of these behaviours. It's not because someone's brain isn't gay enough.
Can you demonstrate to me, since you're so keen on evidence, exactly how you can say that sexuality is not only hardwired, but that it is wired in a way to make bisexuals, genderqueers, etc into deviants?
Each one filtered through culture. Human behaviours do not take place outside of the cultural realm. People cry over different things, have varying desires to learn, get angry over different things, etc, etc. None of those are any evidence. I cry at ads for animal charities. Someone else doesn't. Is that instinct? Is it that I have some biological trait that differs from someone who keeps a straight face at them? Does it mean I care more about animals, or just that I cry more easily at stuff like that?
Because it is an instinct. It's the same as saying that smiling is hardwired. Homosexuality is programed into some people, or heterosexuality - but not both! The gene doesn't give out two conflicting messages, only one is read. As soon as they find the gay gene I'm going to tattoo it all over my chest! I don't think bis or trannies are evil or anything, I just think that they are repressing homosexuality.
But do single women still exist??!! Nobody is addressing the real issue!
They overlap. As I said I'm interested in evolutionary psychology.
What I mean is that it's the person who determines the splash, not the sea. A gay splash is caused by gay genes.
Ok, you got me there. It doesn't exist biologicaly. It only exists in the mind.
Because it is an instinct. It's the same as saying that smiling is hardwired. Homosexuality is programed into some people, or heterosexuality - but not both!

I agree with all that. Yes, sexuality is filtered through culture - people repress their sexuality so they end up half gay/half straight. I was just giving examples of behaviours that are innate. Being gay is innate. Being straight is innate. Being bi isn't. It is conjured by the mind of the person repressing their feelings of lust for the same sex.
"A soul? Who said anything about a soul? Your argument -- if it can be called one -- is predicated on the notion that humans have no free will. When presented with a situation, people have a range of choices as to how they can respond to it."
Why do you think I believe humans have no free will??
"So you don't believe humans have no free will"
That's not true.
"Well, then maybe you have a gay lecturer who wants to do you like a hawk. Have you checked his brain? Or maybe a female lecturer who wants you to love her for her lipstick. Check to see how much makeup she's wearing."
Stop making fun of me, it's really hurtful. I'm doing my best. I'm not evil. What I think shouldn't make you try to hurt me.
