But I became straight because I was curious about girls after learning that they have different reproductive organs than us from a diagram in class. My life actually led me to be straight. I'll admit a sexual awakening from anatomy diagrams is not one I've heard before. And also, I've heard enough gay jokes to want to avoid being gay. I've been more attracted to women. I made it in my mind that only females could be sexy. My sexuality was definitely a choice. But Alex's story actually puts my sexuality into question. I think I've had a few male crushes. My Aunt and Uncle are both gay, so if sexuality is determined by genetics, it is possible that I could be gay too. But those male crushes, they are just more like friends. Women are what I feel like sleeping with. But I don't know, could those male crushes guys I want to kiss? That's what I hate about Alex's lesbian story. It makes me question my own sexuality. She wants to be a Mom, that gives her a motivation to be straight. I want to be a Dad too. I even picked out the name of my first born daughter "Amy." If I was born straight, life sure made it look like a choice to me. If I was born gay, I probably wouldn't be so perverted around women. Am I a bisexual who wants to be straight? If I'm bisexual, how come I don't find guys hot? Sexuality at birth doesn't seem that likely considering all the stuff leading to me liking women. And if everyone was gay, we'd be extinct sooner, so it would be a problem if someone was born gay and couldn't change their sexuality. Actually a gay gene isn't very likely because heterosexual sex is needed to concieve a baby. And who would want sex with the gender they are not interested in? Wanting to be a mother doesn't necessarily mean wanting to be straight. I admit I don't normally watch Supergirl so I don't know if Alex wanted genetic offspring but if she didn't then adoption is an option and if she did then there's artificial insemination. Feelings toward parenthood don't really determine sexuality.
