    Anyone mad at her for talking about HER PERSONAL EXPERIENCE is bitter and sad. She is talking about her own life. If people are sensitive to someone talking about their own life then we have gotten to a sad place. People are such sheep and if someone has their own thoughts they are attacked. La'Porsha said nothing wrong. She has a beautiful soul.

      Rachel Rae and yall wonder why i say "all women are lesbians." let a guy tell his
      girlfriend/wife that he was a homosexual for 2yrs and is now heterosexual and watch the girlfriend/wife leave him.
      u see, when it comes to sexuality women can sleep with the same sex yet jump into a heterosexual relationship and no one cares. but if a guy does it he'd still be labeled gay.
      *why the double standards???

      She said something illogical tho, saying she chose to be straight is saying she's going back in the closet to impersonate the straight life, so others can be happy and others meaning homophobe, she's only trying to make them happy, so that she wont get condemned anymore for who she is.

    • @allsmilez13
      @allsmilez13 7 лет назад +3

      Jonny Davis I don't get the double standards either.I saw some chick on here say "just because you sleep with someone of your gender doesn't make you gay" and the 1st thing that came to my mind was "If I met a man who slept with other men idc what he claims, to me he is gay." It would be interesting to have an open discussion about this double standard if we could talk instead of type!

    • @mshill2406

      Rachel Rae Maybe it is possible for some people to choose it and some not too. What Im hearing her say is the reason she chose women to begin with was not coming from a real place. It was just based on hurts and once she started to heal she realized that this was not her authentic self. Sometimes I do feel that others try to force their beliefs on others on BOTH sides. They have a knee jerk reaction without actually listening to what is being said and dissecting and trying to understand the intent. Some people subscribe to the belief that its a choice and some dont. Each person should decide for themselves whether they are being true to themselves and not let society dictate to them who they are. This applies to gay and straight. Only you know who you are. Nobody else can define you.

    I'll try to make this simple, since people want to make it complicated and refuse to understand. LePorsha Rene made a choice to be with the same sex out the PTSD from her traumatic sexual abuse experiences. She felt it would be safer for her to be comforted by a woman since men harmed her. It has nothing to do with attraction, sex, or sexual orientation. It all stems from the damage from the abuse. Biologically, she'll always be heterosexual. Again, we're talking about an abuse victim, not someone who had those feelings of difference since childhood/teenhood.

      @PLazz257 7 лет назад +8

      It's offensive to the homosexuals because they don't get the option to "choose" their sexual orientation. They're born gay. Her tossing around the term homosexual like it's "just a phrase" is rude. She is either bisexual or straight.

      Deborah Lee Did you choose? Sometimes you can't even help who you love. You can chose to be with them or not. The act of sex with a person of the same sex is a chose but the attraction the wanting isn't. Actors simulated same sex scenes in movies all the time, but that doesn't make them gay. Being gay isn't a chose. Just like being straight isn't a chose.

  • @afroqueendancer
    @afroqueendancer 7 лет назад +423

    I think for those who do not agree with what she said, it's important to keep in mind that she is speaking only from her life experiences. She believes it is a choice, because she made the decision to be with a woman. She was sexually abused by men so being with a woman was a choice. FOR HER. The same doesn't have to be true for you.

    • @JohnThreeSixteen7373
      @JohnThreeSixteen7373 7 лет назад +24

      Exactly! It's HER story. She has the right to speak about her experience, whether others agree or not. People are so quick to jump on somebody for expressing their opinion or belief, yet they want people to practice tolerance. It's a two-way street. It's very hypocritical.

    • @cooolness3
      @cooolness3 7 лет назад +6

      It doesn't matter if it is her story or not. What matters is that she is spreading intolerance and hate. Read the other things she has said in the past. Someone who spreads that kind of intolerance after having lived a LIE is a hypocrite.

    • @TiffanyRayneOfficial
      @TiffanyRayneOfficial 7 лет назад +21

      +Cole Coleman She already said she's only speaking for herself and her experience. Which she has every right to do. I don't know where you got that she's spreading hate, intolerance and being hypocritical from, because she's an abuse victim and it all boils down to the trauma she went thru. She's not a bigot, she's not homophobic, she didn't say she hates gay people, and she didn't say it's a choice as a generalized statement. She made the decisions she made then, as a result of the damage she sustained from the abuse. It has nothing to do with anything you said. She didn't word it the way you wanted to hear it, OK and? Unless you endured what this woman did, you can't tell this woman what to say about her own life experiences. And that's the problem with folks. They only listen to respond and opinionate, instead of listening to understand.

    • @TiffanyRayneOfficial
      @TiffanyRayneOfficial 7 лет назад +11

  • @snatched.8135
    @snatched.8135 7 лет назад +345

    So basically she chose to stop being scared of men. That doesn't mean she was ever gay though that just means that she was traumatized. Big difference.

    • @Shymel100
      @Shymel100 7 лет назад +24

      RandomGus It was both. She could've been traumatized AND for those 2 years, she took a liking for women, which by label, is homosexual. She clearly said she did some soul searching and for the ones that dont know what that is, you'll never know unless you do it yourself. It takes alot of self meditating, therapeutic conversations with self, self love and time. Could've took her years, but I dont think it was this lightbulb switch that made her say "she'll try men out" Soul searching and changing a belief is a journey and I 100% respect her for it. Especially after going through something that deep that she locked away.

    • @AkonFenty1992
      @AkonFenty1992 7 лет назад +11

      Taking a liking to a certain gender doesn't have anything to do with sexuality, she could like women as friends, but doesn't mean she's a lesbian, being a lesbian means to have an emotional, spiritual, sexual and attraction towards a woman, if she didn't have that then she was never a lesbian, so RandomGus is actually correct, she was traumatized.

    • @Shymel100
      @Shymel100 7 лет назад +7

      Akon Fenty There is no taking a liking "as friends" in her case. Shes a grown woman and she knew what she was getting herself into. She did not date, have sex, etc with women for 2 years because she wanted to be friends with them lol. What type of sense does that make? Alot of women go through what she went through, and like I said, it was both. I'm not denying her trauma, but I'm also not denying her experience and what she identified with.

    As a member of the LGBTQ community I see no wrong with what she said.
    Why i say that is because she is not generalizing the whole community, she is explaining HER experience that shifted her view on a certain gender.
    Yes, believe it or not, people do change their sexuality. In the lgbtq community its so ironic that we fight for equality and justice but yet we attack just as quickly as the straight man. Its so hard to say what you've been through or if you have come out of the community because you're seen a "rogue" gay.
    people also find a God of their own too. but its NO ONES job to tell them that their feeling arent valid. There is a double standard that has been blurred.
    some people are born that way and others choose to do so. and again you cannot say that the other opinion is invalid because you have no idea what they have been through or think
    ps that isnt a wig for all yall trying to drag this woman

    • @lexi219
      @lexi219 7 лет назад +13

      The issue is language is powerful. It's how humans communicate information. Saying that you chose to be heterosexual/homosexual/etc. is inaccurate information - you don't chose your sexuality (who you are attracted to), you chose who you have sex with. People are annoyed at her comments because they are ignorant of what these words actually mean, even if she's just talking about herself.

    • @lkez2

    • @lexi219
      @lexi219 7 лет назад +4

      Celma António But she never said she was *attracted to* only women and not men in that time period - she said she chose to *sleep with* women and not men because of her trauma. I'm just trying to point out that difference. That everything she has said does not equate her changing her sexuality but rather who she decides to sleep with.

    • @missbrooks1571
      @missbrooks1571 7 лет назад +5

      lexi219 well what I think she is trying to say is she wanted to give the heterosexual lifestyle another chance! and that was a "choice" because she could have continued to live her homosexual lifestyle that doesn't mean she still doesn't have those feelings she just chosing not to live her life that way, which is her perogative

  • @ohheyitssoumy5959
    @ohheyitssoumy5959 7 лет назад +31

    people are so quick to judge but don't spend the effort to put themselves in other people's shoes! I went through the same thing that she went through... i was molested at 12 for few years.. and i had girls around me who went through the same thing and rape too... and as a teenager i really thought i was gay... i was attracted to men and liked men only but i felt only comfortable around women and sexually speaking i'd never let a man touch me or even picture it... physically i would only see myself with a woman as a teenager...then i grew older and you know time heals,,, a little bit at least... and i realized that it doesn't mean i'm gay but it means that i am more comfortable around women BECAUSE of what happened to me... that's why i never pictured myself in a relationship with a woman or liking or loving a woman, i liked men but i would NEVER imagine touching them and the idea of them touching me made me sick to my stomach!! there's something called PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) and it happens to sexual abuse victims.. it's basically you reliving the incident that happened to you constantly and non stop... when you're around trigger factors... for this woman and myself, men were the trigger factor... so we isolate ourselves from men and only surround ourselves with women at least sexually (in our heads or by action) to avoid the PTSD kicking in... so don't attack her for saying she "chose to be gay"...i think her words are put wrong but i get what she means... she THOUGHT she was gay and/or she CHOSE to be gay as in she forced herself to be around only women because it's EASIER and SAFER than being around men especially since when you;re younger you;re more fragile... so cut her some slack please, you don't know what it's like to be in her shoes...or mine.

    • @ale5677
      @ale5677 7 лет назад +2

      OhheyitsSoumy First I'm sorry for what happened to you... I'm glad that you didn't allow your negative experience to stop you from living life to the fullest one step at a time. However, I agree w/ the fact that she shouldn't never said that..."I chose to be heterosexual or gay"... Because it sends the message that an individual's​sexual orientation is a "choice" when it's definitely not the case. She could've just said that her past experiences somehow force her to suppress her true desires for men & that she made the choice to be w/ women as a defensive mechanism to fight her post traumatic condition. She was never gay to begin with from what I can see...so it was wrong for her to say that.

  • @JW_Hue
    @JW_Hue 7 лет назад +14

    at the end of the day....you make the choice to be with who you decide to be with. You make a choice to sleep with whomever you sleep with. Whatever the reason behind that choice is...it is still your choice. Just like you make the choice to eat food you know is not good for you but you love. Discipline and temptation fight against each other.

    I can also respect that, out of 7.5 billion people on the planet, some people do have that choice to make. They must do. Just because I don't understand it, who am I to say she's wrong? Maybe she's bisexual and decided to ignore her feelings, maybe she was never gay in first place. Who are we to judge and pick her apart?
    That wig however, that *is* a choice.

I want to spend my life with a women but my (sexual) attraction towards them is not that strong.

You wouldn't know how that works though because you're a female. Also, I found penises disgusting before aswell.. I refused to look at them.
      I want to be intimate with girls but don't get aroused unlike with the opposite sex. It was like two days I was only attracted to girls and thought I had turned straight, I felt so bad and wanted atleast to be bi. Anyways I definitely know what I like about the different sexes, it's just t

If you are secure in your sexuality and know who you are, no one statements or opinions should "shake your world" The fact that people are up in arms about her statements says a lot about their own conscience and yet not being secure in their "truth" and attacking her or me will only confirm my statements.

    "...I'm one of the people who don't agree with that lifestyle." is a direct quote from her about LGBT people. It's her business what she believes, but it's also her "business" when it comes to album sales and other commercial success. She saw the affect. "Good Christians" aren't the ones buying that type of music or will pay to see her at a club or night spot. That's just reality. She alienated what could have been her base. It's hard to get people back. I rooted for her and supported her, and I'm also gay. Straight men wouldn't be her demographics for support and sales, guys like me would have. Gay men would find her fabulous while straight men wouldn't even consider her to be a top beauty. I'm sorry, but gay people can't continue to support people who don't support us back. I'm also Black, and I see other races come in our communities for business (owning gas stations, motels, restaurants, etc.) but the money never gets invested back into neighborhood. I hope La'Porsha the best. I'm not hater...but I'm also no fool.

  • @jalisa3747
    @jalisa3747 7 лет назад +5

    My personal opinion: I don't think think someone can be born homosexual. However, I do think that we can't help how we truly feel. Like, we can try to control our emotions e.g. holding back tears in an embarrassing situation, but no matter what you do the tears come out anyway. Personally, I think it's a choice for whoever you want to date or have as a romantic partner. Those are like your actions, and your choosing to be with that person, no one is forcing you to. And then there's feelings/emotions... you can't help who you are attracted to. You can "choose" how to display those feelings/emotions publicly, but I don't think you can control how you truly feel.. most of it comes from your brain activity/amygdala. To me, saying someone was "born" homosexual is just silly when your brains are underdeveloped at birth.... like the people who say someone is born homosexual, are you guys saying that the moment a newborn comes out of the womb, they homosexual? Anyways, I'm not saying that babies can't feel emotions or feelings, but what I'm saying is that at a very very young age, I don't think they really know how to interpret those feelings/emotions yet; like they don't quite understand what a particular feeling or emotion means. Sexual attraction is not a "choice" and it's not something you are automatically born with, rather it is something that you develop as you age.
    *Sexual attraction is not a choice, but how you show it, is a choice*
    *Sexual attraction cannot exist at birth, but rather it develops as a child ages and as the child's brain grows*

      I understand you. I've always said people aren't born with a sexuality. We are born a certain race, we are born with certain features but sexuality is a development. While I do believe some people can't choose what they fall attracted to, I hate that the mainstream mindset avoids the fact that it CAN be a choice. I heard a woman tell me she has been hurt too much by men and would like to give women a try after never having been attracted to them.

Some people are born that way some people can choose because they aren't just attracted to one gender and sometimes people just fall for others they connect with no matter who the person. Sexuality is fluid. Let people love FREELY. who cares if she chose to or not. her story may touch other people out there like her. People change. People grow. we are all different. that's what makes us beautiful! Someone saying something as absolute as "sexuality is a choice no one is born that way" is just as bad as the reverse.. its close minded and ignorant.

    Not everyones reason for same sex attraction is the same. The LGBT aren't the only ones who have same sex attraction, just the only ones who believe its morally right. And not everyone plans to settle with their desires. But that scares poeple who are insecure about the "I was born this way statement".

    I have seen this many times with sexual assault victims. One of my closest friends in college was sexually assaulted at 16 and started dating girls. A few years ago she married a man which took me by surprise since we had lost touch. She no longer feared being with a man.

    I've known people who chose the homosexual lifestyle, were influenced into it due to traumatic events and those who say they were born that way. There is a spectrum. I also know people, including myself, who made a DECISION not to live a homosexual lifestyle as a result of their personal relationship with Jesus Christ and belief in the Holy Scripture and now live either a life of celibacy or life as a heterosexual. It is what is.

    The challenge is while this often does happen its concerning. Concerning for those of us that are gay and were NOT assaulted, abused, "cohersed". There are those of us that or gay without there being some mitigating circumstance that made us gay. Her story can have people thinking a person can "will" or recondition themself to be straight. Its so unfortunate she found herself in the position she tried so hard not to be a part of.

    this is not that uncommon, women in this society get the opportunity to find their sexuality and are NEVER judged for it or labeled like a man would be, so it actually makes sense she decided to go with men after being with women. Sexuality isn't as black and white as homophobic people make it out to be. There are a lot of variations of sexuality.

    I love La'Porsha and appreciate her for sharing her experience but it really sucks when people associate being homosexual with negative experiences such as rape and toxic heterosexual relationships. Although she didn't say exactly that, it still left the undertone that due to her personal negative experiences she turned to homosexuality almost like using a drug which is obviously a choice.

    Sometimes people take things to personal when someone is merely speaking about themselves and not their personal life story, as LaPorsha said. We should be able to value one another's opinion and experiences without picking apart every word spoken or written. None of these celebrities speak for you or personally know our story to make us feel truly understood. It's not their job, and the sooner we realize it the better..we should be focusing more on what message their music is putting out and how it is influencing the thoughts and mind process and whether it supports good or evil behavior in the world, and that we will be judged on. :)

    Sometimes, It seems as if a woman has a (given right) and can make this particular decision without backlash. But if a man decides hes done with homosexuality, and wants to pursue a woman, he can't. Its like a doubled edge sword.
    Can someone give me some insight, or another perspective on it. It would be greatly appreciated.

  • @KayBr33zy44
    @KayBr33zy44 7 лет назад

    You know, had this been a man, the dislike and like count would be reversed. Society made it acceptable for women to say "I dated women but I prefer men" or "I hate men I wanna try women" WHICH IS OKAY. There is nothing wrong with experimenting, but saying that you CHOSE to be straight after being gay is beyond the most ignorant thing I've ever heard. Poor choice of words. Had she said "experimenting" this video would sit well with me and unfortunately, it does not. There's no excuse behind it and saying "This is MY experience" is a terrible excuse. You can't experience being gay and then convert to being straight, the proper term is bisexual or experimenting. This doesn't make sense. Had a man been in that chair and said that he experienced with a man but he prefers woman, the comments section would be full of "he ain't straight he gay there is no such thing" ignorance at its finest.

  • @Marvelhero24
    @Marvelhero24 7 лет назад +5

    I think her clarification is off. I mean, why even say "I chose", wouldn't it just be better to say that she was going through a phase due to her personal life circumstances, where she had to THEN make a choice about which gender she was going to date/marry etc.
    Sexuality is still not a choice, even for her.

      there are so many studies out there of real gay respondents who "chose" to be straight". people have to accept that there is a large cohort of people in the world who were gay and who choose to be straight and stay straight and who were straight but become gay then switch back to straight. not all gay people believe it isnt a choice. i know quite a few homosexuals who do believe it is a choice & there is also a biological component involved that predisposes you to "feel" you are attracted to the same sex.

    • @kerry5663
      @kerry5663 7 лет назад

      Darryl Wright I know that. The point I was trying to make is that there are people in our society who use to be proud homosexuals or bisexuals and they are no longer that way. They maintain their new lifestyle and seem happy. They weren't brainwashed or forced. They chose to change. Ive read their stories and have watched their videos and I was taken aback once when I saw in the comments (not here) people of the lgbt community arguing with this person and people who were happy that they "switched". They said things like you weren't gay from the start, you're fake, you're lying. As is it is impossible to choose. It is possible, it happens and it is real and people need to accept it, respect people and their journey and live their own lives. I don't know everything, I would never say I have people who Ares homosexual figured out, but I try to listen and understand, and if someone spent a decade as one and after a lot of soul searching chose (and this certainly isn't an overnight thing of course) to be heterosexual then I can only accept that it is real. It is a choice for some and for others it doesn't seem to be.

    Anyone can have relationships with anyone. Anyone can have sex with anyone. Anyone can identify as what they wish. But being homosexual or heterosexual isn't a choice or behavior. Sexual orientation is the gender or genders you have inherent, instinctual and substantial sexual attraction to. Ego-dystonia, trauma, internalized homophobia, narcissism, megalomania based fetishes, mere curiosity- it all can have a great affect on people's sexual and romantic decisions. But your orientation is not a choice and can't be altered no matter who you date, have sex with or what you identify as. She may be inherently bi-sexual or she may be a hetero woman who was dealing with misandry. Either way, her supposed re-connection with heterosexuality is a lifestyle choice. But no one chooses their orientation. I say this as a gay men who had sex with women primarily until my mid-20's btw.

    I think the reason some are offended is because WOMEN have the luxury of trying on sexuality like a pair of shoes & changing their minds. Bi sexual or Bi curious WOMEN are more excepted by both straight men & women. Now if a man on the otherhand decides he wants to change back to being straight, you'd get all types of gossips & side-eyes,saying that he is in fact GAY!no ifs ands or buts. Straight men & women are ignorant & less tolerant for Bi sexual males. They all label them as just GAY. like it or not,there is a double-standard with gay men & women. & women are more free to change their minds according to society. STRAIGHT WOMEN go to FEMALE strip clubs,dance with other women & are allowed to have a freaky side.MEN are kept in 1 box & cant go see male strippers just for kicks ,like a woman can. DOUBLE-STANDARD
