Why is homosexuality called a 'lifestyle' when it's actually a trait.? (military, Miami)

He appears to be waiting for the "right man" to come along. Someone he has things in common with. Whose personality and temperament he likes. Who makes him laugh and feel joy. Who he is emotionally attracted to as well as physically attracted to.

That's exactly my point. He can choose who he wants to be with. It's a choice.

A choice between doing what?

Remaining alone my whole life or spending my life with the woman I love?

Why would I NOT choose to be with the woman I love and want to spend the rest of my life with her, raising our children?

This is not possible for me with a man as I am not "wired" that way and never have been. I can't "choose" to be "wired" like a heterosexual woman, because I am not.

Then what is your issue with gay people?

1. I view the behavior itself as immoral. As I've said though--what you do in your home is of no concern to me. I honestly don't care.


2. I have a problem with the fact that gay people want special rights based on a behavior.

You are not making sense to me.

A choice between what? Someone or no-one?

To do the activity or not.

This really isn't making any sense to me.

What "special rights" are you referring to and how are these rights based on a "behavior"?

To do what "activity"?

He can't choose the "gender" of the person he falls in love with and wants to be with, just as you couldn't choose to fall in love with a man rather than a woman.

Your point?
