Alice Dreger Quotes

The most recent studies both behavioral and biological, indicate one's sexual orientation is genetic — something determined at conception.

Superficially it's a problem if homosexuality is genetic - if the difference between people's sexual preferences is genetic - because at least a pure homosexual would be unlikely to reproduce and therefore pass on the genes. So the first question you ask is, is it actually genetic, and the answer is probably to some extent yes.

The heterosexuality or homosexuality of many individuals is not an all-or-none proposition.

If you're gay or lesbian, it's a biological error that inhibits you from relating normally to the opposite sex.

Being gay is immutable. Maybe someday we'll figure out more of the science and it will be changeable, but we have no leads so far.

Gay people are made and not born.

Sexuality, and sexual orientation - regardless of orientation - is just natural. An act of sex is one of the most human things.

No one is born gay. The idea is ridiculous, but it is symptomatic of our overpoliticized climate that such assertions are given instant credence by gay activists and their media partisans. I think what gay men are remembering is that they were born different.

I can single handedly dispel any ideas that sexuality is acquired. Trust me, you're born with it. My brother is gay, and we knew when he was two.

A person's sexuality is so much more than one word "gay." No one refers to anyone as just "hetero" because that doesn't say anything. Sexual identity is broader than a label.

To have an interest in both sexes is equally normal. Whether it's practiced or not is something else. Some do. Some don't.

I think we all have a slightly gay gene inside us, don't we? It might be 0.00001 per cent as mine is, or one per cent as yours is.

Some men are heterosexual and some men are bisexual and some men don't think about sex at all ... you know, they become lawyers.

You can be born gay, but not because of your genetics, I think because of your subconscious more than your genetics. I think genetically, we're made to reproduce. We can't survive this route. Genetically, that's the way to go. Genetically, we have to reproduce, but subconsciously, and preferentially, you can be born with that.

A man's heterosexuality will not put up with any homosexuality, and vice versa.

Homosexuals cannot reproduce-so they must recruit ... and to freshen their ranks they must recruit the youth of America.

If you're gay, you're gay. It's my Dennis Miller theory of homosexuality shot through the movie "Boy and the Dolphin." If you're a 12-year-old boy and you're watching the movie "Boy and a Dolphin" and a 27-year-old Sofia Loren crawls up out of the Aegean Sea after sponge diving, she's standing there in the deck of the boat in a see-through gauze top, rivulets of water dripping off her torso onto the deck of the boat. If you're a 12-year-old boy and you're watching that and you still want to make it with the captain of the boat, you're gay. You can't fight that. So it is what it is.

A major contributor to the present-day tendency to accept and encourage homosexuality is Dr. Sigmund Freud.

Everyone is bisexual. Almost everyone has the sexual potential for anything.

I believe most people are born with the potential to have same-sex and opposite-sex attractions. However, homophobia creates an internal split, locking up a natural part of a person's psyche, sometimes to the point where the person is unaware that part exists.
