Because I fell in love with a woman I chose to ‘be gay’ – at least in everyone else’s terms. I could ‘be straight’ if I had told her to take a hike and waited for a nice man to come along. But I wouldn’t disrespect love that way. I don’t wonder why I chose this, even though many other people have articulated the hard aspects of being gay. There are difficulties to being in an interracial relationship and in many states interracial marriage was illegal until the sixties. Yet many interracial couples chose to face everything that homosexuals now face in order to marry for love. I wouldn’t question my instincts on this any more than I would have questioned my decision to be in interracial relationships. I chose to be gay because love is worth it.
