I find it a bit strange that the guys who are most strident in opposing rights for gays, the ones who seem to loathe gay folks just because of the sexual inclinations of gays, are the same guys who claim that it's not a natural orientation, but a 'choice."
I suppose the reason I find that odd is because these gay haters are actually maintaining that something THEY find horrifyingly odious (males looking longingly and with carnal desire at some other guy's hairy ass, for example) is something that the gay guys CHOOSE!
I mean, what male not "born gay" would
choose to see another guy's butt as an object of physical desire?
It seems like quite a contradiction to me.
Since I am quite happy with heterosexuality, I can kind of see why I would "choose" to view a shapely toned pretty female as sexually attractive! I presume I was born 'straight' and therefore comfortably moved into the straight lifestyle when the time arrived -- about 3 seconds into puberty.
But if heterosexuality is the "normal" mode, then why would ANY male "choose" to be gay?
I conclude that "choice" has nothing to do with it.
I didn't choose "straight." It chose me (and, by the way, "Thank You, God!")
The gay males I know and the lesbians didn't choose to be gay, either. It chose them.

I asked one lesbian friend one time (in jest, parroting a line from M*A*S*H) "what persuaded you to be lesbian?" She laughed in very good nature and confessed that it hadn't taken any persuasion.
