Dr. Alfred Kinsey created The Kinsey Scale to judge sexual attraction, and to answer the question…are we 100% straight or 100% gay? He came to the conclusion that “a seven-point scale comes nearer to showing the many gradations that actually exist” (pp. 639, 656) Kinsey, et al. (1948). Sexual Behavior in the Human Male.
0- Exclusively heterosexual with no homosexual I don’t want to throw away any of that research that helped show people that, hey, we’re not “playing gay” just to upset you, we were born this way. Just remember that there’s always several ways of looking at things. What if some of those “newly gays” actually went on to have successful homosexual relationships? What started as a choice could end up as a real and lasting love. Some people know if they’re straight or gay from the moment they recognize sexual attraction. Some people actively make a decision to broaden their horizons. I don’t think that they’re belittling homosexuality—they’re opening their minds. I stand by my theory that no matter how heterosexual or homosexual you are, there is always someone of either sex that you could fall in love with, or be attracted to. Maybe you’ll never meet them, maybe you overlooked them because they weren’t what you usually go for biologically, but they’re there. Go To Page: 1 2
