Yvonne, this is an excellant question. If I had had a choice, being a lesbian is the last thing I would have chosen in this society. I’ve been denied jobs, cussed at, physically assaulted; and I mean literally beaten and left for dead, interrogated like a prisoner of war (our great Army), laughed at, denied a place to live, stalked and in general, treated like a piece of dirt by many ‘Americans’ because I am gay. Would any rational person ‘choose’ a life such as this? Also, ask yourself this: Did you ‘choose’ to be a heterosexual? Would you ‘choose’ to be gay? Most straights automically go ‘ick’ when they even consider this question. I go ‘ick’ when I even consider having sex with a man. It’s an automatic reaction that I know I can only love a woman. Having been out of the closet for 10 years, I can now say that I’m damn proud to be a Gay American. But, for many like me, the process has left many scars. Again, thank you for asking this question. Many people still hold this ridiculous notion that sexual orientation is ‘chosen.’ Sexual orientation and sexual behavior are two different things. Behavior is chosen, orientation is an innate part of our psyche.
