I think it's safe to say that some people are gay because it's convenient for them to be gay.

Anne Heche is someone who comes to mind.

Call them "gay opportunists".

If women claim to be gay when around you, there may be other explanations. Just sayin'...

Using your logic, straight people are not born straight.

Even if it is a choice, who cares? People choose their religion so how would this be any different?

Because religious extremism makes the world a better place, whereas the unnatural abomination of loving a member of the same-sex will lead to Armageddon and the rise of Satan.

Erm, wait...

Yeah, because sleeping with the same sex is like choosing an ice cream flavor.
