Of course I figure this out shortly after posting a bounty. ;) It turns out that since I was setting my container view's background color to white, the default white text was blending in. The solution was to set the text color of each checkbox. i.e.:

final LinearLayout attractedTo = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.register_attracted_to);

final CheckBox male = new CheckBox(this);
male.setText("Male");
male.setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.foreground_text));
attractedTo.addView(male);

final CheckBox female = new CheckBox(this);
female.setText("Female");
female.setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.foreground_text));
attractedTo.addView(female);
