So what are your opinions on this quote here: (Yay for quote depths of 1)

I don't know if he was meaning that just as a throw-away comment or it was actually something he thought was true, though.
Katamari007:
throw-away

I don't have a problem with people who don't align themselves as straight. I just don't like when people argue whether or not it's a psychological thing or a choice, because it can be both. It is proven that people can have an imbalance of hormones that makes them homoloveual or biloveual, but people can also make the choice. That latter is usually an attention stunt, which could negate the fact of whether or not they really are gay/bi, but it isn't always the case.
Ephialtes:
Oh Katamari, you could have won cool points there if you had been referring to Froid's Three Contributions to the Theory of love since he proposes the theory of Innate Biloveuality where everyone is born biloveual but their development/situational factors affect their loveuality.
I've never met anyone who could decide what love they were attracted to. It's not something you can control really, it's just how your brain is wired up it would seem. I think there's some genetic factor to it, and another developmental/environmental. For example I was at boy-only schools from the age of 8 to 17 - could have something to do with it.

True, I don't think it could be purely genetic, for at some point in your development something could always change. A good example is your case. You may have had a genetic change that made you biloveual, but you might not have had as much interest in men as you would have if you didn't go to an all boys school. If you went to a normal public school, chances are you may have had a small attraction to men, but a larger one to women. The theory you mentioned backs up this case.
Unless you already have that imbalance in preference? Or would you say you're about equal on preference?
