No
Would you
choose something that makes people hate you for existing?
No.
however, i do think there's choise in how people express themselves.
it's less unacceptable to be 'gay', so more people are willing to accept themselves for who they are, and more people are comfertable with the fact that it's pretty unlikely for someoen to be totally straight (or gay for that matter).
you don't chose what you are
you choose how you express it (if at all)

I think in most cases it's not a choice what sexuality you are. You are gay or you aren't. That sort of thing. But I know, personally, that I choose to be straight, I could have 'gone the other way' so to speak. But I chose to be straight. I also know people who have decided to be homosexual after an experience with someone of the opposite sex has made them hate men. But that was a choice. It was a choice that was driven by an action but it's still a choice.
I guess it depends on what you define as someones sexuality. Someone can be 'straight' but still sleep with people of the same sex and say that's the way they swing. But then someone can be homosexual and sleep with people of the opposite sex. I think people can choose in some cases. But in many they can't.
I don't know if that makes any sense at all >.<
Er...
have you ever heard of the term bisexual?
Sounds about right, could go either way. but you choose to just be with boys, making you 'choose' to be 'straight'.
