DISCUSS THE DEVELOPMENT OF SEXUAL ORIENTATION AND ITS ROLE HELPING TO DEFINE OUR IDENTITIES AS ADULTS.

Gender identity and sexual orientation are often confused. As previously discussed, gender identity describes the gender(s) people consider themselves to be (masculine, feminine, or transgendered). Sexual orientation refers to a person's pattern of attraction to other people including physical, emotional, sexual, and romantic attraction. These patterns of attraction are usually identified in the following manner: 1) heterosexual (straight) refers to a pattern of attraction to the opposite gender, 2) homosexual (lesbian or gay) refers to a pattern of attraction to the same gender, 3) bisexual refers to a pattern of attraction to both genders, and 4) "questioning" is a term used to describe people who are not yet certain which (if any) pattern of attraction best suits them. It should be noted that an attraction is an internal psycho-emotional experience and should not be confused with sexual behavior. Therefore, sexual orientation refers to a pattern of physical, emotional, sexual, and romantic attraction to others, which may or may not be acted upon. Like gender identity, sexual orientation is usually described along a continuum ranging from exclusively heterosexual, to exclusively homosexual, with bisexuality falling in between these two poles.

Explanation:

Our god (Jehovah) Had made us to be Hetero-gender( attraction for the opposite sex!) Cause for example- Adam and Eve( Man and Woman) was how Jehovah had created us to do like in one of the scriptures he say's "Be fruitful become many fill the earth and subdue it" so yeah it was made to be Man and Woman! not woman and woman, or man and man or man and man and woman and woman! ok you get it!
