That’s sort of exactly the point. People believe it to be true, and it’s sort of impossible to prove them wrong. Nature vs Nurture still isn’t proven either way, regardless of how strongly you feel one way or the other.
The simple fact that someone believes it’s possible to “make people gay”, almost necessarily leads to them believing there are people out there actively doing it.
Sure, but the problem isn’t fundamentally different from any other based on different views of how the world works, which is important. It means that it’s subject to the Socratic Method, for example, or any other method of inquiry that helps people explore their own beliefs.
What it means to “make people gay” may just mean having LGBTQIA+ stuff in the general area, inviting others to come out and normalizing the behavior. I’m willing to bet that’s exactly what it means based on what I’ve seen and read. And even if I disagree with that perspective, it makes way more sense than literally forcing people to become gay. And that’s definitely a step forward than merely thinking that person is as dumb as a box of rocks, because now understand how they’re as a dumb as a box of rocks.
I don’t think there is such a thing like making someone gay.
I have a friend who had surgery to become gay. He was a straight guy before the surgery, and now she is a lesbian.
Fake. Was already a lesbian pre surgery.
Can’t argue against straight facts
