It has come to pass that, people still do not understand why people say being gay is a choice. While I can not explain everyone reasoning I will list the following reasons why I see why people say that.
1. "A change that seems like a choice". Many people go periods of their lives being someone they do not want to be or someone they do not think they are. So when a person sees someone turn into something different it is considered a choice. Hence Adam has been heterosexual male all his life. He has had many girlfriends and even got a girl pregnated one time. One day Adam decides he wants to "come out" or be gay, this is consider a choice because Adam could of continue to live his life as he been doing for many years before.
One thing needs to cleared up is that sexuality is not a black/white topic for everyone, There are multiple layers of Human sexuality that range between person to person.
2. Being attracted to same sex does not make you gay. Being sexuality attracted to the same sex in my opinion doesn't make you gay. Being open about your sexual attraction to same sex is the mainstream gay. Whenever someone said being gay is a choice it is the openly gay people they are talking about. And this is just my opinion.
3. And for all the people who are going to comment about "being yourself" blah blah. Just like all the other labels in the world. Being gay has negatives. At the end of the day, there are millions of girls and guys that have sex with the same sex and even are attracted to the same sex BUT do not identified as gay.
Being gay in america is being open about your gayness and embracing it on a public level.
Whenever you hear people talk about Gay people it not exactly everyone who is attracted to the same sex.
