Is sexuality socially constructed?
To what extent do you believe sexual desire and sexual preference to be biologically driven vs. socially constructed? Can one choose the object of one's desire, or is it a purely chemical reaction? Can a person who defines themselves as heterosexual choose to be homosexual, and vice versa?
It's pretty clear that, to a large extent, our society attempts to limit and define our sexual choices. To what extent can we will ourselves to override that programming?
