Maybe I came to that conclusion because I tried to make a theory that fit the people, instead of coming up with a theory and then attempting to fit people to it?
I wonder if something like this could be tested; monitoring brain activity while pheromones were introduced without the person knowing if the pheromones were male or female, perhaps?
To me, it all comes down to what happens physically with our bodies. When I see a hot guy that I am attracted to, I start feeling all funny. I get butterflies in my tummy and weak in the knees and all that romantic crap. I have never, not once, in my life felt that way about a woman. I have even tried to feel that way about certain guys, and I can't
make it happen. I would've loved to have the choice on who to be attracted to. It would've made my life easier in some respects.
I figure it's got to be the same way for homosexuals and bisexuals. When they meet someone they are attracted to, their body tells them, "Hey, that guy/girl is hot, I'm gonna make your palms all sweaty and make you too nervous to talk to them."
Bisexuals are the only ones who get a "choice," somewhat. If they are attracted to both a man and a woman at the same time, they can make the choise as to which relationship they want to pursue. That doesn't mean, however, that the attraction was a choice in the first place.
