If I as a heterosexual female could convince myself to have sex with my husband when I really wasn't "in the mood", I'd say a gay man (or lesbian) could "talk themselves into" having sex with the opposite sex, especially if they are trying to hide their homosexuality.

And when have I ever said anything else? Behavior is a choice; homosexuality is neither a behavior nor a choice.

The only "CHOICE" in the matter is if you decide to live your life as a lie to compromise yourself to make the small minded comfortable. They seem to think that's exactly what gays should do -- live the "straight" lifestyle so they can feel comfortable. That's really all it's about. People like him will never get it. At all. I'm still waiting for his response to why gay isn't about sex, it's about chemistry. I'm waiting for some "having sex with dogs" or "molesting children" deflection they always do when they have nothing else to say.

I would argue that point. That is like saying we choose to fall in love. We choose to be physically attracted to another person.

The fact is: you, I, the person down the street has no right to dictate the romantic relationships others are involved with if is between consenting adults.

You may not like "the behavior" but you have no right to force your beliefs on others. "The behavior" is not against the law. There is nothing you can do about it.

Stop judging me, you're being intolerant.

That's a pretty weak and nonsensical reply, obviously, as there is no logical argument against what Clark Park said.
Just mind your own business and keep your nose out of other people's bedrooms...
