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.
Again these are just my thoughts.
In Australia they have this substance they eat called Vegemite. Basically it is a jelly made from used up brewers yeast. The rest of the world thinks the substance is pretty vile but the Australians have chosen to like it. They have cultivated a taste for it. Could homosexuality be the same? Could it be something people with a certain pre-disposition cultivate a taste for?
I think homosexuality can be a choice in very much the same way cultivating a taste for Vegemite is a choice. I'm sure some Australians always remember liking Vegemite and would claim they don't have a choice but to like it.
