    It is a choice and it can be changed. What has been established is that the scientific community wants to focus on other factors. And the factors they're deciding on are within the framework of wellness. This became a framework to avoid self harm, depression, and suicide ideation.

    I'm a bisexual man who is almost gay/homosexual and I couldn't care less why I'm this way. For some reason, I just am, and I know that I will probably never be able to change my sexual orientation. I wouldn't want to change it anyhow. I love my bisexuality orientation, and even if I was completely gay, I would be perfectly okay with that.

    As always, learning science from a Tik Toker, You Tube presenter needs to be taken with a grain of salt. The lack of credentials and peer reviewed information can be alarming. But I have to say I like this presentation. It is based upon a lot of science I have found and read about. And I really like the explanation by the presenter that this is what he found and put together. Attributing no higher authority than his own. You will find similar studies for trans people. There are so many factors for sexuality in all species. Genetics. Enivronment. Uteral development. Early childhood developement. And it appears that they so influence each other that a good analogy is to represent each factor as a dab of paint of a different color. Then use you pr hand to wipes across the dabs a few times mixing them together. Thats how clear it is. Yes you can still see the colors but they are also blended together. Add into that, we are our own indivivdual canvas. Good video. It really gives us the picture of how complicated sexuality is. That being gay or straight is right or wrong. Just part of being human.

    Because you didn't put a border between girl and boys. It's all about mentality something like a; 100m sprinting Olympic. You're faces with usain bolt, people are cheering you, they put a trust on you untill you believe that you can but you actually can't. Another example; India Living God. They're raised from still a kid by push their mental that they was a god, People worship him, people trust him. Untill the end of his life he will still think that he was a god.

    We all, as a race of intelligent beings, of light. And grace. Are created and born, with the "gay" or. Trans sexual Gene. In the straight population, this genetic makeup, is biochemically suppressed. In some of these, beautifull men and women. God allows alittle room, for improvement with period of self discovery, to be explored. That inyetnal combustion system, in the human body, is known as bi-sexuality. The period of uncertainty, mearly allows the challenging moment's of the regenerating family or negative society or demonic religious sects. To be a digesting, flushingly label of the masses. Into a more balanced view point, of the individual self improvement scale. Some of us, as a people, might still referr to themselves as a straight heterosexual male or female. While a heavenly divulged chosen few, of each new generation, of fellow human beings. Will be rewarded/awarded, with the ultermate life mission, as an equally proud member, of the gay mans, clientele'. At the end of the day though, we all want and expect, the same thing. To not only be forfilled and content, in persuing the kind of sexual and emotional freedom we want. We also demand respectfully so, in the ideal of raising a family and building a legacy, while equally nurturing that great love, of their lives. Regardless, of who or what, might be, between your chosen spouses legs. Speaking for myself. Im looking forward to nurturing my one great love, with the man of my dreams. And naturally walking down the aisle of our favourite, christian church. And in front of gods humble servant, the minister. Pastor. Get to say those two little words. I do. And i love you baby. 💜 ✝️ ❤️‍🔥💔❤️‍🩹💘❤️‍🩹💔❤️‍🔥 ✝️ 💜

    My doctor put me on xanax over 23 years ago, perhaps longer. He told me to take it on a regular schedule to PREVENT anxiety and panic attacks. I didn't know what the long term effects would be! Had I known, I would have stayed far far away from this poison. At the time, I was suffering severe debilitating panic attacks. I even stopped driving for a year. I was desperate for something that would make the suffering stop so I could work and take care of my family. Fast forward...now, I have memory and balance problems. I want to get off it but I know I'm facing seizures and severe back pain. I've tried getting off before, so I know what i"m in for. I am just so angry that a doctor would do this to anyone. I think that many doctors are just licensed drug dealers.

I know there are so many factors that can play a role, but I can’t help but feel that perhaps people can sense I am unhealthy. As if they have some sort of subconscious instinct to avoid me.

    Geneticists have found that sexuality and gender identity, straight or LGBTQIA+, are programmed in our brains between conception and birth by the genes and chromosomes we get from our parents. LGBTQIA+ tends to run in families. I know because I have three male cousins on my mother's side who are gay like me. I was the second child born to my mother and the first male born. I have three younger brothers who are all straight. It is NOT a choice as pointed out in the above post. Anti LGBTQIA+ laws are based on three-thousand-year-old religious writings by homophobic people very ignorant of how most everything in the world and nature actually works. Keep religious doctrines out of secular laws!

    Gay men have brain structures similar to straight women. Gay women have brain structures similar to strait men. This makes sense even with behavior. It's why gay men are often rather feminine.

    I really don't get what's wrong with xanax long term, it has very limited effects on the liver, super easy to get off if you get off slowly. I've been taking them on and off for years and have never experienced any tolerance issues. I think its just stigmatized, even this guy puts some rapper at the beginning of the video. Its bad because its associated with people having a good time. Shuts off areas of the brain 🤣 yeah right.. here i am taking 3 mg for 6 years now and I'm more cognitively competent than 99% of people i meet. Medicine is still far from a science.

    I refuse any medication as an adult because I was forced on legalized meth as a kid. I was forced to take my mother held me down and forced it down my throat. I eventually had an adverse reaction. If I had of known that the medication was legalized meth I would have sued the doctor when I turned eighteen. My mother is still stupid my dad disagreed with drugging me. He would laugh at her and claimed he was stupid until the day he died. After the reaction, she was determined to still control me. When I turned 14 I eventually beat the hell out of her. Of course I would also get ahold of those parenting books she would get read them and turn the tables around on her. I got her so upset she got the belt out and I took it away from her and turned the tables on her. Dad looked at her said he knew that day would come and kicked her out. She left and I never had a problem. When she tried to have me diagnosed I sat mute in the Doctors office and never talked to him. I refused to take tests. Funny how I could be diagnosed with anything. I watched Dad sit there and tell the doctor before the test that mom was stupid. So I took the lead.
