For example, I have always been attracted to guys. At no point in my life has that not been the case. From my earliest memories of sexual attraction, females were never part of the equation. I have a friend that who's experience was very different. At one point, he was very much attracted to females. However, over time, his desires and preferences would change to the point where he began to be much more attracted to men.
I have always been straight. I don't want to pretend to speak for homosexuals or bi-sexuals. But I believe there is a continuum of sexual preferences that covers all sots of different choices..
I had a female friend who was straight for years, then decided she was a lesbian, last time I saw her she was sleeping with guys again, but I don't think she has any strict lines anymore.
My ex-wife was bi-sexual and when we first started dating she talked about bringing other women to bed with us. It never happened, and after we decided to get married it was no longer an option. She dated other men after we divorced, but now she has a female "best friend" that she spends all her time with.
I know I never made a choice to be straight, and I know I could not get sexually aroused thinking about sex with a man even if I wanted to try it. So I assume most other people are also born with a sexual preference somewhere along the continuum, and people who seem to "change their mind" are actually just somewhere in the middle to begin with.
