If a gay would have an amnesia would he still be a gay?

If a straight person had amnesia, would they still be straight?

Another thought, personal opinion

Maybe or maybe not. Nobody knows what "causes" gayness or if that cause is even the same for all gay folks. Some people, even if unfairly, consider gayness on par with addiction, and people who are psychologically addicted would likely not be addicted if they forget they are addicts. Forgetting about a physical addiction would be dangerous. The first answer is like comparing Apples to Oranges. Nature probably "intended" all to be heterosexual. But something goes different in some. While there is possibly a genetic cause for gayness, even gay researchers admit it is not the only factor and that sexual orientation is a complex matter. If someone has unresolved issues driving their gay behavior, then it seems forgetting about the unresolved issues could make a person less interested in pursuing gay sexual behavior.
