*jumps in again before the thread is banned.*

Let me just write a few sentences about the foundation
of my beliefs regarding this issue (at the risk of sounding
dumb and ignorant). My statements above were generalized.
There are always exceptions to everything. Furthermore,
I believe that sexual orientation is a choice.

Um, actually, it's not.  Just as you are presumably attracted to the
opposite sex, homosexuals are attracted to the same sex, and bisexuals to
both sexes.  It's not a choice, anymore than it is for you.

OTOH, there are people who stick to their own sex for various reasons, one
of which is bad experiences with the opposite sex.  I know someone like
that.  She's still attracted to guys, but she doesn't have sex with them
or involve herself with them romatically.  She sticks to girls.  She can
still have sex with them and get plenty of enjoyment out of it, but it's
guys she notices.

This doesn't mean anything.  Just because you notice someone, doesn't mean
that you're going to have sex with them.  It's not like you see a pretty
girl walking by, notice she's sexy, and decide to have sex with her (well,
probably not).  You're attracted to her, sure, but for various reasons,
like you don't bother going after her, you've already got a girlfriend,
she turns you down, etc, nothing happens with it.  It isn't JUST physical,
and people can have sex with the sex that they aren't attracted to for the
same reason; there's more to it than being a man or a woman.

It's more likely that Ranma would, stuck as a girl, be attracted to men
than to women, although he'd probably keep noticing women for a while out
of habit.  It's a habit to check girls out.  After a while, he'd find
himself looking over at guys and noticing them, instead.  But that doesn't
mean he'd end up with a guy.  It's more likely that he'd simply end up
alone, or ignore his attraction to guys and hook up with some girl
instead, because he'd still think of himself as a guy.  It's not all
hormonal.  He's not going to be jumping on people for sex, unable to
resist, he'd have as much choice as everybody else does.
