jvernott2004, I heard that you identify as an ex-gay. If true, this explains why you refused to answer my question yesterday. When I was in Exodus, they believe that having same-sex attractions doesn't make you a homosexual. They believe that you are only homosexual if you identify as homosexual, and as Mike Ensley told me, you are a homosexual only if you embrace gay rights and do things like ...more

They believe that you are only homosexual if you identify as homosexual, and as Mike Ensley told me, you are a homosexual only if you embrace gay rights and do things like march in gay pride parades. Mike Ensley was public in making it clear that he only had same-sex attractions, and yet he would always claim that he was heterosexual.less
Thank you jvernott2004 for explaining the science of sexual orientation. To summarize, people who acknowledge God become heterosexual and those who do not become homosexual as mandated by God. And who said that science and the Bible don't go together.
jv2004, if a person responds by being sexually attracted, then that person's body is actually doing something, its being arroused, like as you say to be a murderer, you must murder someone. So no answer my question, What is the term used in psychology that would be used for someone who exclusively is sexually arroused by people of the opposite sex?
jvernott2004, this has nothing to do with our power over thoughts. This is about someone being very thick headed. What is the term used in psychology that would be used for someone who exclusively has opposite-sex attractions? Come on, just say it.
The definition of a thief is someone who has taken something that doesn't belong to him. The definition of a thief is not someone who thinks about stealing. The definition of a heterosexual is someone who is sexually attracted to people of the opposite sex. The definition of a homosexual is someone who is sexually attracted to people of the same sex. Will you agree with this?
So if a teenager comes to you and says that he exclusively has opposite-sex attractions, and he asks if it could be possible that he is gay, your response would be yes, he may be gay. You would tell him the fact that he is sexually attracted to females means nothing when it comes to his sexual orientation.

jvernott, sexual attraction is not about THOUGHTS. Sexual attraction is in the same category as when you salivate at the sight of food. Again, I know that a man who is not sexually active is living a celibate or abstinant lifestyle. But what is his sexual orientation if he exclusively has same-sex attractions?
jvernott, what is the sexual orientation of a man who exclusively has same-sex attractions but who has never acted on them? What term would a doctor or psychologist use. Are you saying that this man has no sexual orientation, or are you saying that celibacy is not a lifestyle but is a sexual orientation?
