It was a choice that was driven by an action but it's still a choice.

Homosexual ACTS are choices, but homosexuality ITSELF isn't. A person can choose to engage in homsexual acts, but be straight (similarly, anyone could potentially choose to sleep with someone they don't find attractive, regardless of gender or sexuality... whether its for money or hatred of the opposite sex).

I've never so much as kissed another man, but I know in my heart I am bisexual.

I understand what you mean, but if you think about it, its like saying all virgins are asexual.

You can choose which gender you sleep with, but not which gender you find sexually attractive. Thats inborn.
