Not a choice

Simon Collins at reports:

Labour MP Moana Mackey asked Mr Craig if he still believed, as he said last August, that homosexuality was “a choice”.

“I do,” he said. “It's a choice influenced by a number of things including genetics.”

This is just nonsense. I think it is perfectly valid to not support same marriage. But I do not think it is valid to keep insisting that being homosexual is a choice.

My question back to Colin Craig would be when did he decide to be heterosexual. What age was he? Did he weigh up the pros and cons of heterosexuality vs homosexuality? Did he consult friends over his choice?

You can choose whom you have sex with. But you don't get to choose whom you are sexually attracted to. I wish we could – would make life much easier!
