You might be able to choose to fuck a guy in the ass, but that doesn't mean you're now a homosexual. You could also wear extra good makeup and look as african as the next guy. Doesn't make you black.

Difference of opinion. I believe that yes you can choose that.
A rapidly shrinking number of people???? In what world? You think the large majority of Americans are fully accepting of homosexuality as a lifestyle? I would beg to differ on that.
I in fact know personally of four people that are in homosexual relationships that previously were in heterosexual relationships (not a great sampling I know, but it's personal to me and therefore relevant to me). They consider themselves to be homosexual at this time. They made a choice, they clearly did. Look at Anne Heche, she made the choice on both sides. Was she a straight woman just playing gay with Ellen DeGeneres? Is she now really a gay woman just playing heterosexual with her husband and kids?
Does this mean all gay people have done it by choice? Of course not. However, again, you cannot choose to be black. You either are or are not. Those classes and arguments for racism vs lifestyle inequality are completely different.
