Re: Do gays deserve the same rights and access to benefits as the straights?
sexual orientation and being gay is not a lifestyle, neither a choice. living a homosexual lifestyle just like living a heterosexual lifestyle is a choice. both heterosexual and homosexuals CAN choose to remain celibate. many religious heterosexuals also choose to never have sex if they cannot get married or if they take an oath of celibacy, and many homosexuals who are religious also choose not to act on their natural desire. one cannot choose their sexual orientation, but they can choose if they want to act upon it or suppress it
