Being gay is NOT a choice

[Victor]

Seriously, use a little logic here. Why would anyone knowingly CHOOSE to subject themselves to a life of ridicule, ostracization, oppression, and demeanment?

Have you read some of Woolygimp's posts on this board? Ask him why people set themselves up for ridicule [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

The alternative doesn't make things more pleasant, though. If being gay is a birth defect, then why don't we work for a cure?

Well, if it's a "defect" in the same way as being 5'8" instead of 6'4", how are we going to start looking?

Engaging in homosexual acts is definitely a choice.

We are men, not animals, and are conscious of what we do.

Nobody is born with perfect instincts, even if such a thing exists. I may want to have sex with your grandmother, but that doesn't mean I can't choose to refrain.

If society's roles were different (i.e. bizzaro world) and being gay was the norm, would you either abstain from heterosexual sex (because you have such strong control over your sexual choices) or have gay sex like everyone else?

Have you never "slipped" when with your girlfriend/wife. Of course it is.
