Did you choose your sexuality?
  No, I was born this way.

"So, the other day I was talking with
my friend about random stupid stuff. And I'm not exactly how this happened but
we got into a discussion about sexuality. He said that he's okay with gays and bis,
but thinks that it's a choice that people make.
Well, being bisexual myself, I took offense to this. I spent many of my teen years trying
to discover myself and just recently accepted myself for who I am. We fought back and
forth on the matter.
Now..I'm just sitting here, still thinking about it. And I wonder, does anyone who is gay,
bi, pan, or any other sexuality actually choose to be?"

Some people do make that choice to be gay/bi/whatever. Mostly those girls who are like "men are pigs i'mma try wimmenz." making a choice certainly does happen. however i'm pretty sure that's the minority of cases. your interests, personality, what/who you like, etc. is all determined by your genes and dna (and also life situations but that's another thing entirely) and it's not as simple as just making a choice. if you like something you can't choose to stop liking it. and vice versa.

That's pretty much what I'm trying to figure out as well.

I'm pansexual, and I know that for me, it is not a choice.

I can't say that I dislike being a lesbian but I know that I didn't choose to be that way. If it were a choice I probably would have chosen to be cis and straight.

"Thank you for the feedback, I feel a lot better knowing that
others understand how I feel. And I get what you guys mean, even in today's society it'd be a
hell of a lot easier to just be straight.."
