My argument is that it is not a compulsion, one can choose to not engage in this behavior.
If they do, then take what social ramifications go along with that and live with it.
Do not attempt to use government to normalize what is clearly an anomaly.
Our society in all segments disagree with the normalization of this behavior. It was voted down in California, of all places!
For a watch to work, the watch doesn't require the existence of the watchmaker who designed and/or built the watch...and the one who wears the watch doesn't need to know or believe in the watchmaker for the watch to tell time...
The desire to know the watchmaker, or know and understand the watchmaker's design...or to have knowledge of the watchmaker's existence are both irrelevant to the watch working according to the design and mechanical processes of the watch...
If someone found a watch, took it apart and put it back together, fully understood how it worked...would that be sufficient to know and understand the watchmaker?

How dare the government allow left handed people to have equal rights as right handed people...
Don't they know that being left handed is a choice?
Clearly being left handed is an anomaly, so tough shit for the abnormal lefties...
History of Left Handed People - sounds sinister!
It is fairly safe to assume that those interested in the history of left handed people, will indeed be left handed people themselves. Right-handed people basically take their dominance for granted. However, it is a fascinating subject for all, because almost everybody knows a âleftieâ, be it family member, close friend, work colleague, school pal, whoever.
Looking into the history of left handed people will shock todayâs generation when they learn that in previous centuries, they would be spanked in school and chastised at home for being different. Their left hands would be tied behind their backs, in an effort to force them to write with their âcorrectâ hand.
There used to be extreme and severe suspicions of anything left. In the history of left handed people, the Latin term for left is sinister, which in modern English can be interpreted as meaning âevilâ; âmenacingâ; or âthreateningâ. By contrast, âdexterâ is the Latin word for right, which is used in a complimentary way when talking of someone well skilled in the hands, i.e. âdexterousâ.
In researching the history of left handed people, scientists have discovered that the left-hander uses both sides of their brain evenly, while the right-hander is controlled more from the left. One theory, with regard to hand preference, is that it is determined from two manifestations of a gene at the same point. These genes are referred to as the âC â and âDâ genes. The D gene is more numerous and consequently leads to the majority of the population favouring their right-hand. The C gene is less likely to occur, but when it does, the hand preference of the individual will be split 50/50 between right and left.
Throughout the history of left handed people, there has been many only too willing to cast disparaging remarks. One such person was a 19th-century Italian criminologist named Cesare Lombroso , who famously spoke of âLeft-handedness being a stigma of degeneracyâ. Such statements have thankfully long since disappeared from the views of the world, and it is worth remembering that, if ever on the receiving end of any derogatory comments from a ârightieâ; the left side of your brain controls the right side of your body, and the right side of your brain controls the left side of your body; so only left handed people are in their right mind!

It took quite a long time for "our society" to recognize the rights of blacks and women...
The majority is not always right, or at least that is what we learn over the course of time and societal evolution...

Minorities do not choose to be minorities.
This spurious correlation is the reason gays are attempting to promote the idea that they were born to take in the rear or in the mouth. The penis is biologically constructed for the vagina and vice versa. Did u know that anal sex can trigger a vagal response?
Homosexuality serves NO other purpose than raw hedonism.
If that is their lifestyle choice, fine. But don't demand acceptance of that behavior as normal to your peers, because it is not on so many levels.
If individual humans who happen to be minorities chose to engage in BEHAVIOR endemic to their social structure, but is not productive to the larger society, then they do pay a societal price.
And, u still have not given a concise definition of marriage.
Oy vey...
I guess in order to answer whether or not homosexuality is a choice, the word should first be clearly defined:
ho·mo·sex·u·al (hm-sksh-l, -m-) KEY
ADJECTIVE:
Of, relating to, or having a sexual orientation to persons of the same sex.
By this definition, <b>orientation</b> suffices to make a person gay, and it <b>is</b> possible to be gay (or straight) alone on a desert island. Thus, a person's sexual orientation is determined <b>before</b> they engage in any sexual activity. Therefore, it's not a choice at all... JMHO.

No one knows that orientation until it is manifested by a set of behavioral choices.
For example, in the military, if you want out, u cannot just go to your CO and say that u are gay. There must be some evidence to support that assertion. Until there is action to support the orientation, the orientation does not exist.
Traditional Sociology defines deviant behavior (outside the norm) as being 2 standard deviations from the mean.
If less then 5% of the population are engage a similar behavior it is considered deviant.
Homosexual is a deviant behavior. So is hard drug use. So is being a Professional athlete.
