A quote

"Homosexuality is a choice the same way that breathing is a choice."
Why did I want to write a blog post about that. Because of the word "choice." There's always a choice. Imagine your life is a game. One of those role playing games with that bioware does so well. Mass Effect and Dragon Age being the most notable. And you have what's called a dialogue wheel. A wheel of choices of what you can say and do. But if you play that kind of game like me there is always one kind of way that you will act. I always try to be nice and save everyone but I still choose the bad choices sometimes just because they are there. It's like that in life. (Because my parallels are only good when they are based on games) There is the way you act, the choice on your dialogue wheel that you will always choose. But the other way to act, that other dialogue choice will always be there for you to one day maybe use.

So there is a choice.
A choice between what you should always do according to character., and what can be done but is not something that would be done by you but can be done. The choice between socieites normal and whatever weird brand of crazy you are. Because everyone is crazy in one way or another.

It also depends on how you define being a homosexual. Is it just the fact that you like other men or is it actively being in a relationship. Personally based on what I've seen of gay people is that it's the later. So liking men makes you gay. But what happens when despite this longing society still forces them into having a heterosexual relationship. Does this mean that you are bisexual? Obviously not. So does this mean that I was wrong? That homosexuality is an absolute for those who are? Not entirely. You can choose to ignore those urges, and pursue a life that won't be affected by your apparent wrong sexuality. Or you can ignore it. There is always a choice. But sometimes the choice is not a choice at all.
