bro, imma be real with you, there was never a point where I actively chose to be the way I am. In fact, I fought with my feelings and tried to push them down for years. Being LGBTQ will bring so many problems to my life and will probably destroy my relationships with family members and people I know, if I could choose to be normal, I would have years ago. LGBTQ people aren't the way they are because they are "addicted" or some bullshit, they are that way because they are that way, and trying to shame them and tell them they aren't okay, or addicted, or mentally ill or sinners, it doesn't help
