Oh not at all Ashley, an I apologise fer coming off strong (iffin I did?). Fer one M from an aggressive culture an M still working on properly communicating with people without offending or being offended. (a life long process). Also I take into account that M an emotional nutter on E (as we all ar) sometimes an I just adjusted levels again. No offense meant, none taken.
Now then no, M not at all saying prefferance is a choice. Hormones do come into play to a degree, like when yer repulsed bi na taste or smell of yer partner though ye love them. A lot of ar behavior in this area is learned, some attraction can bi based on pleasure synapses in yer brain being activated bi yer emotional connection to na other person (strangely this is how one can fall in love with inanimate objects) Yes these reactions release hormones but those ar Dopamine's an whatnot, not T or E. an na rest??? Whom knows, but it's not guided bi hormones though infleuanced.
