Nixon explains: 'They [the LGBT community] tried to get me to change it, because they said it implies that homosexuality can be a choice. And for me, it is a choice. I understand that for many people it's not, but for me it's a choice, and you don't get to define my gayness for me. A certain section of our community is very concerned that it not be seen as a choice, because if it's a choice, then we could opt out.
Cynthia, 45, insists she hasn't always been gay and finds it 'offensive' that people say she has.
She continued: 'Why can't it be a choice? Why is that any less legitimate? It seems we're just ceding this point to bigots who are demanding it, and I don't think that they should define the terms of the debate.'
That's nice. Most people don't choose their sexual orientation, whatever it may be. I know that might outrage the anti-homosexual fascists, but that's just the truth. That may be more complicated than some minds can handle, but that's nothing new.

I don't buy it. She's bisexual, and merely chose to stay with women over men. You can't consciously choose the people you find attractive. There are lots of people, that no matter how hard I try or force myself, I could never find attractive.

I read the article. It was in Sunday's NYT magazine.
She is whatever she wants to call herself. Why do some people seem to have a problem with that?

In Cynthia Nixon's case, she should know the definition of
bisexual, which she apparently is. She should never have defined herself
as a lesbian, if she ever did.
