I've NEVER heard anyone straight claim that sexuality is chosen. The
claim is that it's a psychological condition, like, say, alcoholism or
kleptomania. Those aren't chosen, but that doesn't mean what you
experienced in life didn't lead you to that.
Now, I'm not saying I believe that, of course, but that's just how I've
heard it expressed by anti-homosexuality people.
At any rate, I don't think people are "born" straight or gay. Infants
don't have sexual orientation! I have no idea what causes orientation.
Maybe it's genetic, maybe it's something in the womb, maybe it's some
subtle factors in childhood, maybe it's a combination of all of the
above, I really have no idea.
