I beg to differ.
Claiming that you are a homosexual, by definition, informs everyone around you that you are attracted to and prefer sexual relationships with members of your same sex (the word "gender" is a politically loaded term and I refuse to use it). Otherwise, how would anyone know that you are "gay," save for the really effeminate men or truly butch women?
Having said that, I completely agree that "gays" and "lesbians" should have same rights as everyone else. I do not think that it is the government's place to regulate the actions of two or more adults entered into consentingly.

What about one or more "adult" and one or more non-adult adolescent?
What about one or more "adult" and one or more pre-adolescent who is really really curious and wants to try the experience?
Is it the government's place to regulate those actions?
