I find the word "lifestyle" offencive when used to describe GLBT'S. To me it implies a level of choice as well as a way of living. Such as what car a person drives, what clothes they wear, what restaurants they frequent, how they decorate their home...etc.
I'm a Mom, first and foremost. Being lesbian is just part of the myriad of complexities which make me who I am. It's not the be-all and end-all of my existance. So when I hear the word "lifestyle" refer to GLBT's, I am very offended as if I live differently than anyother woman, Mom, Daughter, Partner or whatever.
