Why is my son gay?

He can't choose his sexuality, just like you can't choose that you're straight either. That's just how he is

It's biological. He is still.your son. And the only thing can do is show support and love. Accept him

I counter that question with yet another question: why are you straight? All sexualities are completely natural and normal. Also keep in mind that sexuality is fluid, especially throughout adolescence. Either way, you should love and respect him no matter what.

he likes men

There are many reasons why some people think this is but no matter whether people think they are born that way or it is a choice it is obviously a part of them. As someone who is gay I do not think that I chose to be this way because I have tried to force myself to be something I am not and it does not work. Your son just falls for people of the same gender which does not even change who he is, it just means that you learned something new about him.

There really is no why. You're son was born gay and I hope that you can accept him. He needs that from you because you are his parent. Parents are supposed to to support their child with their decisions and their traits that they are born with.

He was born that way. Chances are that he dosen't know either. Being gay is a scary thing sometimes. You're confused on who to tell and who not to tell.

There is no specific reason for your son being gay. Many people happen to be gay and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that, it's just the way they are. One of my closest friends is a lesbian and she is one of the nicest and happiest persons I know.

Your son is gay because he was born that way. It is not something to worry about really. It's his sexuality and he will be perfect no matter what.

Theres no real answer to that other than he was born that way and you should love him for who he is rather than who he's attracted to.

Because he is. Life allows people to be attracted to who you want to and if your son is attracted to males, its because life allowed him to be that way. There is nothing wrong with him and you should love him all the same.

Different people are different and just because they are not the same with the majority in the society does not mean there is something wrong with them. Learn to accept and understand your son to know why he made the choice.

he cant help it, its not like he chose to be gay,okay sweet? it was hard for him to descover t himself and you need to make sure you try and be there for him, its terrifying coming out to your parents as i know, you have alot of questions but show support then ask when you feel like its time x

liking the same gender is completely normal and to be a smartass I'm going to answer your question by saying because he likes boys

Learning that your child is lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT) can be a difficult process for parents. Many parents feel shock or fear. Some blame themselves, some reject their child, others want to be supportive but don't know how. Even parents who consider themselves accepting of LGBT people can react harshly to their own child's coming out. If your child comes out to you, you may feel like you've lost the person you love. However, it is important to remember that this is the same person you loved just minutes before he or she told you. The very fact that your child felt comfortable enough to tell you speaks volumes about the relationship you share. If you have a negative, knee-jerk reaction, do not be ashamed of this; try to accept the fact that you have had a shock for which few parents are prepared. Give yourself time to absorb the news, but do not take your anger or confusion out on your child. Though there is no "right" way to act in this situation, understand that now is a time to talk, to ask questions and, most of all, to show your child

Sexuality is fluid, chances are he wasn't very happy about it when he first found out. Being gay is not a choice so much as an attraction, and trying to deny it would only make him feel worst about himself. Your son is gay because he had the ability to reach beyond the stereotypical for boys and open himself up to the vulnerability that comes with being different. Love him for that, respect his choices in love, support him in relationships as you would if he were straight, be there for him, and support him in his journey in life.

People do not choose what sexual and romantic orientation they will be, it's just how their brain is wired. I want you to know that it can be hard for some people to accept family members and loved ones who come out as something other than cisgender heterosexual heteromantic. It will take time for you to adjust to this, but please know that your son will have worked through a lot to get the point that he feels okay to come out to you. He may have battled inwardly to accept how he feels as I know I did when discovering that I wasn't straight. Its so hard to accept yourself, and to not be accepted by the people you trust is a real blow, so even if you have mixed emotions, please try and be supportive of your son as he will really need it

This is how he was made....it's a part of him, just like his hair color or what his interests are....don't treat him any differently because of it. The best thing you can do is accept it and show him that you still love him no matter what❤Don't lose your relationship with him just because he didn't turn out how you thought he would❤

The general (overwhelming) consensus in the medical and psychological worlds is that people are in fact born gay, much in the same way that people are born straight.

Your son is gay. So what? He is gay because that is how God made him. He is allowed to be whomever he wishes to be. And so be it...gay.

People are gay. It's just how they are. It's not something that you can choose or decide. Some people just are.

Because he was born that way, the chemicals in his brain that tell him who he is attracted to seem to really like other guys. Good for him : ] Give him a big hug and tell him you love him.

Sexuality is not a choice. Your son does not choose to be gay. It is something that he has probably always felt his entire life. It is something in the brain, it is just who he is. Here is a good resource on how to handle having a gay son, and to better understand what he is going through. https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/gay-and-lesbian-well-being/201104/what-do-when-your-child-says-im-gay

Your son is gay because he likes dudes. It's really as simple as that. Sexuality is not a choice and if you believe it is a choice a ask you to choose to be gay for a year.

You shouldn't be worried to much as it could be a phase

For the same reason that you are straight. He was born that way. There's nothing wrong with being gay, and if you still hold traditional values and stigma, you will risk losing your son. Because society is evolving to be more accepting and promoting equality, and discrimination of sexuality will be frowned upon.

As it is a part of him, nothing can change this fact . Now, your son needs support from you . He could be terrified and scared . Social Stigma in this society is unavoidable . Now, you need to gradually accept it and face this undeniable fact together. I am sure your son would be so touch , if he has your support.Be by his side when he face prejudice. Your son is one brave kid , as he has the courage to come out to you and say"i am gay" .Be proud of him :)

Because he was born that way. People are either born gay or born straight. Nobody ever chooses to be gay

Gay people come from all types of families. Some have dominant mothers, while others may have dominant fathers. Gay men, lesbians and bisexuals are only children and they’re youngest, middle and oldest children. They come from families with siblings who are gay and families with siblings who are not gay. Many come from what society would consider “model” families.

Because he is attracted to boys, which is perfectly normal. Love is love no matter what gender you are or where you are from.
