No babies aren't born with sexual perversions. Babies have no sexual attraction
BUT it is a pre-disposition of sorts, kinda like alcoholism for example. No worse or better
I could care less about alcohol yet the other guy may have a huge craving for it.
"Normal" people are born with the chemistry which will determine their sexual orientation. Normal gay people are born with the chemistry that makes them attracted to the same sex. Normal bisexual people are born with the chemistry that makes them attracted to both sexes. Normal heterosexual people are born with the chemistry that makes them attracted to the opposite sex.
It seems relatively simple to me, but maybe I'm just a simpleton.
They say they are so there is no reason for me to believe otherwise. I know I was born heterosexual. The question is: why? What causes a person to be born one way or another and does the probability of being born one way or the other change over time, and what are the factors that cause the change in probability? I've heard some suggest that it is caused by the hormones and other chemicals that get in the water supply. Could be other factors as well.
I personally believe the vast majority are born as such with a small percentage perhaps choosing that lifestyle. My thinking is why would anybody choose to be scrutinize, discriminated against, threaten, bullied, ostracize, put down, hated, make fun of, or have to live a life in the closet for the one who is not out. Who would want that for themselves knowing how some in society will treat them, rail against them, or send them to hell. I just don't know who would choose that if they had a choice in the matter. I just don't believe anybody can just wake up one morning and decide, you know I think I'm going to be gay. That's just who they are, that's how they were born.
I have no problem with gays. I never had a choice when I decided to be straight. I think gay people are annoying though, the ones who are flamboyant and talk with a huge lisp. They are free to do what they want, but I'm not going to be friends with someone who acts like that. Then again, that's about their personality.. if a straight person acted that way I wouldn't be their friend either.

The body's production of hormones and whatever might affect the body's production of hormones. Also, what effect the mother's hormones (or other factors) might have on a child before birth.
