I don't really know if people are born gay and are innately tied to their orientation. What I do know is that the major reason that question is asked is because religious scumfucks attempt to justify their discrimination against LGBT individuals by implying that it's a choice. I don't know what causes people to like one gender or another any more than I know what makes me favor brunettes over blondes. What I do know is that it only matters to the religious scumfucks. To me, it doesn't make one fucking bit of difference what causes it, because unlike religious scumfucks, I don't need to justify treating another human being as an equal. I don't need Christ to tell me to love my neighbor. Even if it is a choice, so what?
I realize that is dodging your question, but there's no answer to that question. I'm sure some would, and perhaps some would not. There are many, many people in this world who stay in marriages that have little or no sexual potential, for all kinds of reasons.
