Since no one answered Flecky, I will: when we say homosexuality, we refer to one's own sexual orientation towards a member of the same gender. Anyone can go out and engage in gay sexual activity, but those who are sexually aroused by it are homosexual.
Weltall: Oi vey, I just don't see how sexuality could be a choice and controlled as easily as you make it out to be... I mean, how many heterosexuals could honestly say to themselves: "You know, homosexuality is all the rage! I think I'll be homosexual!" and could make the transmission successfully? If sexuality can be controlled, why are there cases of gay people commiting suicide, because they can't be accepted by society? Do you believe they're simply giving up and retreating? How about considering how terribly unsuccessful therapy for homosexuals is?
Falcon: Your evidence of homosexuality found in animals is interesting, but do you have any sources? Were experiments with "gay animals" conducted, or is this simply a common observation among animal behavior?
