:I think it does, if private schools in Britain are anything to go by: [http://www.guardian.co.uk/g2/story/0,,1589948,00.html] (please note - a "fag" in these schools is a junior boy who is a servant of a senior boy, running errands and so on. Nothing to do with "fag" meaning "a homosexual".) [[User:Totnesmartin|Totnesmartin]] 17:48, 16 May 2007 (EDT)

In the late 1800s a man named Kraft Ebing was the leading theorist on sexual deviancy (deviancy here has nothing to do with morality but just has to do with sexual acts that don't result in procreation). He did a lot of research into the causes of homosexuality and creates and convincing answer the the question, "Is homosexuality a choice or is it genetic." Ebing says its both. In his most well known work Psychopathia Sexualis he writes that some people are born homosexual and others become homosexual.

He points to same sex schooling as one of the ways to "create" a homosexual for just the reason that was posted earlier. Humans have a basic need for sexuality, if a young heterosexual boy is placed in a place where there are no women around to release his need for a sexual relationship than he will turn to those who are around him, other boys in the same predicament. --blutengel

: This same argument can then be expanded to explain sexual deviance among clergy in some denominations, who are segregated and thus prey on young boys as a result of sexual depravity. --[[User:TrueGrit|TrueGrit]] 14:03, 9 October 2007 (EDT)

Yes, but in the limited sense. Consider prison: when guys enter prison, they either become the rapist, or the raped. These feelings of homosexual attraction (using that term loosely) are only defined by availability. When these cons get out of prison, they revert back to their previous heterosexuality. In a single-sex school, homosexual feelings and attitudes might develop, but may not last as the students are injected into a heterosexual society.

However, I think that it really depends on the school. My cousin attended a single-sex high school in New Jersey and he said that homosexuality was not so widespread, as they had various opportunities to interact with girls both in and out of school. I also know of a single-sex boarding school in Connecticut where buttrape is all over the place, but if you asked, most of the students would say they were straight. I'm not totally sure if I agree with the theory that single-sex education promotes homosexuality, however. [[User:ChrisQ|ChrisQ]] 19:44, 5 March 2008 (EST)

Homosexuality is a sin.  Sin in an innate aspect of the human condition because Eve ate the fruit from the tree of knowledge of Good and Evil after God put it there and told here specifically not to eat that fruit.  Therefore Homosexuality only occurs when people are told not to do it.

:Which begs the question, why was it there in the first place, if its only purpose was to be tempation.  Obviously we were meant to fail, for if any other outcome was expected the tree didn't need to exist.  It is a representation of tempation that is nigh impossible to resist.  Similarly, if we house teenage males, only with other males, they will feel a temptation to have sexual relations with other males.  Whether or not they act upon such temptation is up to them.  However, they will feel a similar temptation regardless of surrounding.  So, are we saying the pre-marital sex with a girl is better than sex with a boy? --[[User:Brainwalker|Brainwalker]] 02:18, 9 May 2007 (EDT)

Only then? So, why do you (Global you, aimed at Christian Conservatives...) keep telling people not to do it? If you just stop telling people not to do it, it will stop happening, Yes?

==Boarding Schools or in General==

==Boarding Schools or in General==

If boarding schools where students are locked in to the school grounds for long periods then maybe. In a situation where social contacts outside the school occur then there would seem no factors preffering homosexuality. There is evidence that single sex classes improve education, perhaps by reducing expected gender roles. [[User:Markr|Markr]] 13:40, 17 October 2008 (EDT)
