There's a challenge put out by Dan Savage, of Savage Love fame, regarding that very claim, that homosexuality is a choice.
Basically, Dan challenges any straight man who's convinced that being homosexual is a conscious, deliberate choice to blow him, whilst the head-giver maintains a diamond-hard erection of his own. Basically, prove it by 'choosing' to be homosexual for fifteen minutes, and then going back to his utterly straight 'chosen' orientation.
Honestly, I don't see how it proves anything, except that the head-giver is loads more queer than he thinks. *shrug* Also, that Dan Savage is just like every other man out there, gay, straight, or other: he really likes getting head. Heh.
There's a fallacy inherent in Mr Savage's proposed demonstration, in that it assumes that any gay man (temporary or otherwise) will be thoroughly aroused by the act of giving Dan Savage head...
