"It seems to me that mannerisms are a social construct, whereas sexual orientation is hardwired in the brain. This being the case, it would follow that sexual orientation would come first."
-Blackstone

I agree agree 100%. All gay people are attracted to males. Not all have any of the stereotypes of gay people, whereas others have some. Some of the stereotypes are contradictory so no gay people have all.

Where do the mannerisms come from? I dunno

Similar causes are possible. I don't think they would have the exact same since the mannerisms are not the same all around unless there are different causes.

I have read some of the various research on sexuality and the possible causes. I really don't think we (as in people in general) have a good provable definite single scientificlly verifible answer how everyone's sexual orientation happens, let alone fetishes or anything else associated with it.

I've had a few theories over the years but all in all I don't care. I don't think any sexual orientation is inherintly bad or sinful but some are harder to be. I care more about what it means to live as a BL and other things like that than why. Why doesn't matter, I just am.
