Homosexuality is not a choice.

Hello, this is also my first debate on debate.org, and I look forward to competing as I am in my second year of varsity policy debate it will be nice to debate theory rather than fact. Where to begin. I would like to begin my argument by rebutting my advisaries argument: "Homosexuality is not a choice." A. Homosexuality is a state of mind: -In order to decide if one is a homosexual, they must first develop feelings for another person of the same sex. Most will argue that people will "hide" their true feelings by having relations with people of the opposite sex in order to stay "acceptable" to the majority of society. However, this cannot always be the case. For example: There are many women who have dated men their whole life, settle down and get married to a particular man, and during the marriage are brutally treated and beaten. After this, they divorce and are forever disdainful of men. However, being human and always seeking love and acceptance they default to finding love with other women and hence "Choose" to become homosexual. They were not hiding some innner feeling for other women, but rather seeking love in the arms of person who was not a man due to the traumatic events which she associates with men. Therefore, She made a choice to become a homosexual. B. The argument Pro is making is not about homosexuality, but rather "pan sexuality". -For this debate, I am excluding the other definitions of "Pan sexuality" for the same reasons the Pro excludes the other sexual definitions of the word "homosexuality". - Pan sexuality is the choice to love whomever an individual chooses for the sake of pursuing a happy life with a person they love. With this being said, Pro cannot argue an individuals attraction to someone of the same sex is "something they are born with" due to [1] Their incorrect definition / clarification of the word they choose to argue for it creates confusion in the theoretical discourse of the topic. [2] The actual word they are putting forth to defend, defines itself as a choice, not a trait given from birth. C. The argument the Pro is putting forth is being stated from a personal view with conditional factual definitions, therefore giving the Con the burden of proving that a person is not born with the trait of "loving someone of the same sex". -The pro must show evidence that this trait is biologically apart of an individuals person, in order to argue that this state of mind is not a choice, but rather "who they are". -The pros argument states that although one can deny being "homosexual" they still are none the less. I would like to answer this argument with my first argument relating to examples of why this cannot always be the case. And if it is not always the case, then the pro cannot imply that all homosexuals have been homosexuals since birth. In conclusion, The viewers should default to the Cons arguments as being more logically sound, more fluent and conclusive of the fact that "homosexuality" (or in this particular debate) "pan sexuality", is a choice and not a trait which individuals have since birth and choose to deny only because of society's majority view on the subject of two people of the same sex being intimate with one another.
