Being gay is a fetish.

No, I never made a choice either. Just all of a sudden I starting getting these thoughts and urges about females, and none about males. There was never any doubt. Not that it matters, if I happened to have been homosexual or bisexual instead, that would have been cool too.

I don't know if people think it's a choice you make at a certain point and you can't go back, or you can just swap backwards and forwards whenever you want. In the second case, unless the person in question is bisexual, they should be able to see very quickly this isn't true. In the first case... I don't even know how that would work. When do you make the choice, and how does your brain lock that choice in?

Deep down people must know this isn't true, and just use it as a way of justifying their own difficult feelings, either towards themselves or others.
