You choose how to react to attraction, but you don't choose to be attracted. So, if the right pheromones came off Moore or Thomas, I might well be attracted.... OTOH, I'd also have the brains to realize that it wouldn't work for other reasons....
So, in other words, you could choose to have gay sex.
Celtjew Libertarian, you make some excellent points, and frankly I agree with you 100%.
I used to think of gays as total freaks until someone close to me tried to kill himself because he was gay. Nobody had any idea at the time, but looking back I recognize the signs were there. Anyway, unbeknownst to all of us he tried for many years through therapy and hormone treatments to change but for whatever reason - biological, hormonal, phsycological, metpahysical - he was gay and nothing could change that.
That's why I cringe when people say it's a "choice". Perhaps for some people it is, but I'm convinced that for many others it's not. Needless to say this whole incident challenged a lot of my views and things were downright awkward for a little while. Thankfully he's not one of those "in your face" types and he avoids too much physical contact with his boyfriend in public.
He's happy now and frankly, now that I've accepted it, so am I. We've been through so much crap together, and we were such good friends before he "came out" that it would have been a shame to loose all that just becuase I couldn't overcome my own prejudices.
