Weltaii, I respect you as a friend and an adversary, but you're just wrong here. People are driven to get off. Yes, you can obviously go an entire lifetime without ever having sex or masturbating, but you can just as easily go an entire lifetime without ever walking, or talking of your own choice. People CAN be gay...but if so, it is forced upon them. If those prisoners hadn't been jailed, do you think they ever would have hooked up? Don't you think they'd still rather have women? Just because they're fucking eachother in the ass doesn't mean they're aroused by one another, they probably just need to fuck something! If you have sex with a man, you're not gay (proverbially speaking; that'd obviously never happen.). If you have sex with a man because you want to and are aroused by it, you ARE gay.

People are driven to get off as a means of reproduction. It's really brilliant if you think about it. See, to thrive, a species must reproduce. Now, if reproduction were a painful process, organisms would tend to not do it, and thus the species eventually would die. The orgasm is the incentive to go through the whole sex process.

That said, if you have to get off, you yourself said that one could masturbate. It takes some level of attraction to get off by engaging in sex with someone else, regardless of their gender, whereas to masturbate all you need is your imagination and a strong right arm.

And I disagree with your final statement as well: The act of gay sex makes you gay, not the thought of it. All people have slight homosexual urges or fantasies at least once in their lives. Everyone with a functioning reproductive system is capable of homosexuality. The only way you can have sex with someone of the same gender and not be gay is if the sexual act is against your will. You are gay by action only. You are not gay by thought anymore than one is a murdere by thought.
