Always said the belief in sexual choice says everything about homophobia and transphobia. If you think those things are bad, and it’s a choice, then the chooser is evil. And if it’s a choice, then your kids can be influenced on the matter.
Craziest thing to me is how easy the notion of choice is to disprove with a simple thought experiment. I turned my best friend around instantly.
“OK, homosexuality is a choice. Remember when you were a horny teenager? Can you tell me how you choose which team to bat for? Could have gone either way, right? I choose hetero because it sure seems a lot easier.”
