Many that think being gay is a choice, are in fact bisexual themselves. So for them it's a choice on whether or not to act on it. And they project that everyone else is the same.
And even then it's not really a choice, since you can't really choose to stop having feelings. I guess that for bi people it's easier to pretend, but where there's love, there's love.
It's like, being a hetero dude and vlbeing forced to go with a girl when there's another one you love. It's hard in any case.
People tend to project themselves on other people. We all do it, and it can be shocking to find how different people actually are from each other. I've heard all my life from certain Christians that people who are atheist have no moral compass and there's nothing stopping them from killing and raping people. Which I find revealing, because they are saying their beliefs are the only thing stopping them from doing those things. I have never once wanted to rape or kill anyone, maybe that's why it's easy for me to not believe in god.
That about the moral compass, and telling you that you cannot be happy without Jesus in your life are crocks of manure I know plenty of non-christians that live extremely happy and are much Kore decent than most of the Christians I know, including myself. In the same subject, I know plenty of Christians whose demeanor wouldbhave satanists praying for them since they could be worse people. And religions? Biggest issue in the world, bar none. Having faith is one thing, I have faith. I do NOT follow religion. Religions are full of dogmasbthat you are supposed to follow without question. Religion is what has Gaza busted the way it is.
