“For some it is a choice. For others it is a mental malfunction that occurred after they were sexually molested as children.”

My opinion differs on that. I am convinced that it is a “mental malfunction” in all cases. (Or so close to all as to make any exceptions irrelevant.)

Same-sex attraction disorder is similar to PTSD, in that it is induced by trauma. In the case of SSAD, the trauma is sexual in nature, which causes some percentage of the victims of seduction or molestation in the pre-adult years to develop this particular disorder.

The good news is that it is treatable. At the very least, a true understanding of the nature of their disorder might help victims get right with God.
