lgbt a choice or genetic?

No idea about transsexualism, but homosexuality/bisexuality is probably a result of genetic, environmental, and epigenetic factors

>always had male friends
>fucking hate girls because they were mean
>also into boy stuff (guns, vehicles, dbz)

It's also important to point out that I am not society's perfect image of female. As in the other students would quite literally ask if I were a boy or a girl. At first I answered "girl" but then as a joke began to answer "boy". I have a feeling this is one of the big things that screwed me up because I had trouble (and still do) going to the bathroom in public places because I don't want people to see me.

>I've been doing a bit of searching for quite a while but still can't find anything definite.
Because there still isn't anything.

Not that the answer really matters, because once it's found lgbt is essentially done for.

Forgot to mention in the last post that when I play vidya games with customizable main characters I ALWAYS chose the male.

I also feel like I might be a misogynist.

Skipping to highschool since nothing really important happens in middle school.

This happened a few weeks ago and is what actually turned me off being trans. I'm still dysphoric though but I feel much better about myself.

>the other days were just fun stuff but today is serious day
>today is "talk about OP's mental issues day"
>also bible stories yay
>he's talking about how jesus describes heaven when i remember something
>"Am I going to be a man when I get there?"
>hawaiifag says that when i get there i'll be the best version of myself
>meaning no gender change

This just changed something for me.

The issue I've always had with sex change is the deception and the fact I'll never be that gender fully, so I was hoping heaven could fix that.

But if that doesn't happen, then what's the point?

Going back to the thread title, I want to know this because if trans is a genetic thing then for some reason I experienced a VERY long phase.

If you're asking if there's a gay gene then no, I don't believe it's been found yet. Sadly most research that gets done on this subject gets labeled homophobic and has it's funding cut. I'd personally like to know a lot more about it as well.

Also, hawaiifag wants to be in a relationship with you and is clearly trying to groom your mindset for one.

There is not a specific gene or anything like that we've found yet, but evidence suggests there is a biological component to LGBT identity. It's likely a combination of nature and nurture that leads to LGBT identification.

hawaiifag and i are both tight as fuck, but we both understand that a relationship wouldn't work out.

appreciate the thoughts.
