Where did you learn that sexuality (as opposed to sex acts) are a "choice?" Or that homosexuality is problematic or NOT a normal and observed orientation within human sexuality?
None - your attempts to demean the respected and dignified institution of Fullerton College - simply because a person that disagrees with your political views graduated from the school - fails. See - I took a class called Critical Thinking and Reasoning at that school - and learned all about logical fallacies - one that you just used in your argument.

Go Hornets!

Given that as your point of view I still fail to see the "except homosexuals" clause in the 14th amendment. Perhaps you can show me the part of the constitution that allows the laws to be administered differently to one particular subgroup of the citizenry.

So what you're telling me is that somewhere in your youth you were equally turned on by both male and female but you chose to go with the female? And right now you can be equally turned on by either sex but you choose to go with the opposite sex?

You are really confused.

If you think you can choose to be gay it is a sign that you are actually gay.

In those aforementioned states gay marriage is equivilant to straight Marriage.

No I am not. People who are gay choose to be so. I have chosen to be "straight".

I’m sorry, but if you think that you are probably gay, or at the very least bi-sexual.

Actually I would say you are bisexual given your equal attraction to both sexes and you do indeed choose to only fulfill the hetro side of your attractions. But I would point out that just because you are the way you are it doesn't follow that everyone else is the same way. Personally I have only been sexually attracted to women, my opposite sex. I do know a few professed homosexuals that insist they have only ever been sexually attracted to members of their same sex and I have no reason to doubt them. Still given all that I still can't see a justification to deny those professing homosexuality the same rights and benefits constitutionally afforded to the "straight" segment of our population.

So at some point in your development you could have gone either way but chose to be attracted to the opposite sex?

Funny I remember always being attracted to the opposite sex. It was never a choice for me.

The fact that you believe you could have chosen to be attracted to the same sex sounds kind of fruity to me. I bet you have a flare for decorating.
