I dunno - every gay person I've ever known well enough that this topic came up swears they never made any type of decision. They expressed as much interest in having sex with a woman as I do in having sex with a man (ie, none).

I don't fully understand it myself, but it's not for me to judge and I'm not going to hold it against them in any way.

With regard to my comment about the hairy people....Has anyone seen the Arabs we're fighting? Prove me wrong. They're fricking hairy. Osama bin Hidin looks like about the 3rd generation in his family to walk upright
True. laugh

On the other hand, you're not going to change the beliefs of many, and many believe homosexuality is wrong. Very wrong.
I understand that and you certainly have every right to hold that belief, but I don't think that should form the basis of gov't policy.

The gov't is and should be held to a different standard that private citizens.
