While psychologil factors may crease the likelihood that someone is gay, no sgle factor is known to e homosexualy. It very much appears that same-sex sexual attractn is not a choice but actg on is; so if you fe gay as the mere prence of same-sex attractn, then om everythg we unrstand, beg gay is not a choice.

If, on the other hand, you nsir someone to be gay only if they act on their same-sex attractn then beg gay n be nsired a choice pendg on an dividual's behavr. Whether science n ultimately prove the blogy of beg gay or not, 's important to support all adults their choic no matter how they intify. 1 IntroductnGay men’s will-makg and tate planng is a relatively recent area of rearch tert.

There are several possible reasons for this, the most obv beg that the generatn which participated gay liberatn the 1960s and 1970s has reached early old age and, le wh Nancy Kner’s (2010) argument, an creased unrstandg and awarens of the risk of ttacy will benef them and younger generatns of LGBT people as they reach old age.

Firstly, that until que recently HIV-AIDS was the domant ncern for more than one generatn of gay men. What shows is that, if this small sample om four advanced wtern untri is any gui, gay men are more cled to favour members of their fay of orig than their fay of choice when makg cisns about their beneficiari. While this thkg is le wh recently published rearch on the topic (Wtwood, 2015), ntradicts earlier rearch on gay men’s fay formatn which was the foc of rearch Anglophone untri the 2000s (Smart, 2007; Weeks, 2000, 2007; Weeks et al., 2001) that suggted gay men along wh other LGBT people would tend to form alternative fai or fai of choice.

Will wrg and the appotment of beneficiari have an add importance for gay men and for three important first is that until the passg of marriage equaly legislatn the Wt, 1998–2012 (Reid et al., 2015), will-wrg many advanced wtern societi was sential if a gay man a uple relatnship wanted to make sure that his partner had a good chance of herg what he wanted to leave him when he died. Evince also exists of parents disherg non-pennt children (Monk, 2016) marriage equaly, will wrg was an important means for gay men first to clare the tth of their relatnship and send to try to ensure that their partner received his herance, along wh other beneficiari, who often prised iends and siblgs (Monk, 2016) acrdg to the ceased man’s wish. But, as Gee Chncey (2004) argued, even the existence of a will did not necsarily prevent a ceased partner’s fay of orig om nttg and takg charge of the men’s jotly owned send reason will-wrg has a special importance for gay men is that, even though the blend fay is creasgly mon (Beck-Gernsheim, 2002) and somethg wh which gay men have their own experience, they also have a long history of formg relatnships rmally and makg rmal arrangements for them (Smart, 2007; Weeks, 2007; Weeks et al., 2001), which n clu beg ls assiduo than is beneficial planng for end of life and will wrg.

For example, Daniel Monk (2016) argu that not all gay men nsir children they had om a prev heterosexual relatnship to be part of their ‘herance fay. ’The third reason that gay men’s will-wrg practic are important is that, acrdg to some U. S., they are ls so others such as Atralia and New Zealand (Reid et al., 2015) circumstanc, such as beg able or unable to formalise a gay uple relatnship, belongg to a blend fay, or dyg whout a will, unrle the importance for gay men preparg for the physil and material end of life.
