Why Am I Gay ?? Is it really wrong if i am one ?

You may ask yourself "why am I gay" but no one really knows the answer to this question. There are many theories as to why some individuals are orientated towards homosexuality rather than heterosexuality but they are only speculations at this point in time. Most of these theories follow three approaches:
1) nature
2) nurture
3) a combination of both nature and nurture.
The basis behind the nature theory for homosexuality is that individuals are born with a certain genetic makeup which predetermines their homosexual orientation.
The nurture theory believes that one's environment and experiences can predetermine one's sexual orientation.
Other scientists believe that homosexuality is a result of both nature and nurture. The question you must ask yourself is why is it important to determine why you are homosexual? No one asks why heterosexuals are "straight".

Coming out of the closet is the term we apply to one's acceptance that he or she is gay or lesbian. Self acceptance is the first step in coming out. After you feel comfortable with your own sexuality it may become important to you to tell other people that are either gay or not gay such as your parents. This decision is a process which only you can decide and guide.

You may want and decide to come out to others when you feel you are emotionally ready and feel that it is a safe time. The time to come out to others depends on how strong you feel about yourself and how much support you need from those who care about you. The best person to come out to is someone you trust the most: someone you know will not tell others and someone who will not hurt you. Coming out does provide you with a healthier self esteem as you allow yourself to share your "secret" about your sexual orientation with the people you care about. Just remember that coming out doesn't solve all of your problems and is a life long process.

One thing to keep in mind is that while we would like everyone in the world to be open and accepting, the truth is that there will always be some who don't understand. However, there are also people you can count on - these are the ones to whom you should talk.
