I agree with you. Some gays call it gross if a man and a woman kiss or have sex. There seems to be a double standard.

So, are you OK with businesses barring patrons based off calculated "business decisions"??

Nope. A WOMAN did that.

Back off, gentlemen. We women are in charge, base on this fun new meme that the only normal people are those created via a natural process. It's called "gestation."

We are not a fascist country, no matter how much the looney left tries to transform the country into being a fascist state.
The first amendment does not protect you from the consequences of your speech from other people or your employer. It only applies to the government penalizing you for your speech.

All elements of CHOICE.

I will just let Occam's Razor take care of the rest.
Neat avoidance of the question, but not quite neat enough.

When did you DECIDE you'd choose to entertain, have sex with and reproduce with women, instead of men?

Not always. Some teens go into a relationship willingly with an adult.

You're the one who claims that you (and everybody else) chose the sex you're attracted to; that you chose to be attracted to men and not women.

That seems foreign to me. That was not my experience - I did not choose my sexual orientation (even though you claim I did). As such, I'm curious about your experience choosing your sexual orientation. Why won't you discuss your experience in choosing you sexual orientation with me? I'd really like to know things like:

Before you chose to be attracted solely to women, were you attracted to both men and women, or to neither men or women?

How did you decide your sexuality? Did you make a list of pros and cons for all sexualities? Did you seek the advice of your family and friends? Did you experiment by having sex with both men and women to see which one you liked more?

And once you made your decision, how did you hardwire that decision?

How did you make yourself attracted to women but not attracted to men? If you were initially attracted to both men and women, how did you selectively turn off the attraction to men? If you were initially attracted to neither men or women, how did you selectively turn on the attraction to women? Perhaps you could explain the biological mechanism and how you consciously triggered it.

Of course that's a choice. Who you in fact choose to have sex with is a choice. Nobody would claim otherwise.

"I will just let Occam's Razor take care of the rest."

Understand it...

basically, until there is overwhelming SCIENTIFIC evidence that homosexuality ISN'T a choice....there is no reason to provide any deeper explanation than the simplest one!
