Why do 5% of the population have yellow as thier favorite colour?

Is it caused by the Social/Psychological environment they grew up in?

Is it caused during pregnancy?

Is it caused by a genetic trait, like skin color?

Is it a decision people make simply because they want to be different?

Hmm...

I would think having a favorite color would just be an opinion. But what affects that opinion?

It is not like any opinion though. In politics, for instance, we educate ourselves to form our preferences. When it comes to colors we just have our preferences. Same goes for the matter of which sexes we are attracted to.

So, the point I was trying to make was that:

1 - We don't know the answer to the question in the OP nor to the question that I asked. And discussing the matters won't give us accurate answers. (I mean, we are no scientists, and even they don't know.)

2 - The answers to the questions are equally insignificant in both cases; others' opinions on these matters will not affect our lives. (Unlike things like politics.)

What about homosexuals who wish to be heterosexuals? If you want a family, and want to love women, then why is your body denying you that freedom? Some people might hate yellow, but if Yellow was for whatever reason, the colour people are suppose to like, I'm sure a lot of people would just be okay with it.

Being homosexual isn't the same as likeing a particular type of person. I have my preferences for women, but that doesn't remove larger build, or Indian women from the list of people I could reproduce with and live a happy life with.

So why can many gay people engage in heterosexual activity at all? Not all homo's want to be homo, if you think it was just a matter of preference, why can't these people just go heterosexual?

Homosexuality is something your born with, it's out of your control. It's like schizophrenea, people don't wish to be schizophrenic. Shizophrenic people don't just grow up thinking crazy is right, and it's okay to feed your kids dog food because there isn't poison in dog food. It's a defect, it takes 20 years to kick in, but it's a randomly occuring mutation which 1% the population experiences.

Homosexuality is not opinion. If it were then there would not be gay people who wish they were straight, but there are. Gay people wouldn't go to church to pray their condition gets better, they would just mate with women.
