When people who are gay, or supporters of gays, claim that homosexuality isn't a choice. Some people are born with gay tendencies, but you still have to make a choice to live life as a homosexual, just like people with straight tendencies have to make a choice whether or not to have sex with the opposite sex, or get married, etc.
Yes, but it isn't the heterosexual sex which makes them straight. You can choose whether or not to have sex (obviously) but that doesn't mean you're choosing your sexuality. A gay man could choose to have sex with a woman. That doesn't mean he's choosing to be straight, because he's not. He's still gay. I cannot change my sexuality.
Homosexuality does not mean 'having gay sex,' it means being exclusively or almost exclusively attracted to people of the same sex, whether you act on it or not. Therefore no one (whether gay, straight, bi, anything else) chooses their sexuality, they simply choose whether to act on it or not.
One of the reasons I hate religion is because they think homosexuality is a sin and you choose it, which is BS
