Everything is a Choice

There is always a choice involved in everything you do. To be honest what drove me to post this is the whole controversy over the statements made on the Rob Arnie and Dawn show. For those that are not familiar with the show they recently got into some trouble when discussing trans gender people. I am not defending them, I don't even know what specifically they said that got them in the trouble they are in. What I did hear and what sparked this entry was a caller that said "they don't have a choice." What I am doing is saying that there is always a choice. I have gay friends and I love them the same as anyone else, and have even talked with one close gay friend about this very subject. I will use myself as an example. I am straight. I choose to date and pursue female companionship. I could however make a choice to be gay. It would not feel right to me and I know that is exactly how many gay people feel about choosing to be straight but the point is that it is a choice. There is very little in life that we cannot make a choice about. Even genetic things which we are born with we can choose to change. We can dye our hair, we can take growth hormone to be taller, and we can have sex changes to become a different sex. It is a choice, that's the bottom line.
