>At what age does the typical gay male know that he is gay? I would think that >at ages 11-12-13 or so, boys are just beginning to find out who/what they are. >I doubt they can make a lifetime decision at that age. You are speaking as if boys actually *decide* to become gay or not. You seem to be saying that homosexuality is some sort of lifestyle choice. This has not been substantiated by research. Instead, it seems that humans (the population on the whole) caontain a wide spectrum of all sexualtieis. Some people are purely gay wihle others are purely straight. Most people, though, are somewhere in between. And, I also don't see how you think of this "decision" as a "lifetime decision." Are you saying that once a person has sex with someone of the same gender, that they cannot still have a family and a "normal" (by your definition) life? keith
