I don't think it's a choice but I think "nurture" may play a role with some folks more than others rather than it being completely "nature." But nobody wakes up one day and just decides they're gonna be gay. It's unrealistic to expect or demand someone to change their sexual identity just because it's against someone else's "norm."

Great video by the way. Spot on shows people's ignorance in their beliefs about sexuality as a choice. Funny to watch each of them as they realize the double standard and their own beliefs turned back onto them.

Well I happen to be on a long lay over between flights. So I decided to check Ok Wassup today and boy am I glad I did.If anybody knows me from posting here before I'm an openly gay man. But I'm here to tell you being gay is NOT A CHOICE. So for all you who keep saying it is when your not living it and you don't really know what you are talking about, is WRONG!!!!!I was attracted to boys for as long as I can remember. When other kids my age had a crush on the little girl in kindergarden I had a cruch on the little boys. I did'nt choose this. I would be stupid to choose this because its too hard. Nobody would want to make their life a living hell and pick this for themselves if they had a choice. I am also mixed ancestry (Mexican and White) and I didn't choose that either. I was born that way. I was also born gay. No matter how much I tried to fight against it growing up it never worked. I tried having girlfriends, I tried taking a girl to the prom. But it always felt as akward as a straight guy taking another guy to the prom. It was never a good fit.So to all you experts who think you know what it's like being gay and know that we all just woke up one morning and said hey I think I'll be gay from now on: you're wrong. It took me a lot of years to get used to this and to love myself for who I am. I'm a proud and open gay man. But believe you me, if I had a choice I would have picked something a whole lot easier and accepted.

HA funny video. I guess whoevers behind it has a point. I'm str8 but I never chose to be. So I guess it's the same for gays. One of my good friends from childhood is gay. Everybody always kinda thought he was even when he was four. But do I think he chose to be gay at 4 years old? LOL of course not. Gotta be something in the genes.
