Sexuality Class Discussion

     Sexuality has so many variations to it that it makes it confusing. Many times I've mistaken the way a guy dresses for their sexuality, but now I realize that the only thing that determines someone's sexuality is what their mind has chosen for them. The discussion focused on how people identify themselves, how others have identified them as, and the consequences of it. There was a statement that really stood out to me in the discussion on how people chose their sexuality. The speaker was asked how he knew his sexuality, and his answer was a question. The question was whether people who are straight chose to be straight or thought about what they wanted to be and then just go out and do it? This question was something that I focused on because it unwrapped my mind around the fact that any other sexuality besides heterosexual was something that people chose. Being heterosexual, is not the default for everyone, and there are people who were born with their default as LGBTQ. I also realized that because you fall under the LGBTQ sexuality, does not mean that you are different mentally, physically, or spiritually. No matter how much gender lines cross, whether it is a male who dresses like a female and acts like female and is straight or vice versa  the only thing that determines your sexuality is what your mind makes it to be.
