I've never heard the word CHOICE used. I've heard homosexuality called
a disease or a perversion, or comparing it to addictions, but never
called a *choice*, except by left-wingers and homosexuals debunking the
alleged claim!
Now, as for homosexual acts, that's another thing. Certainly one can
make a choice, regardless of orientation, for sexual activity or for
celibacy, and many right-wingers do believe that, if homosexuality can't
be "cured," that celibacy should be chosen, but that's not the same
thing as claiming that homosexuality itself is a choice
