What's with this "lifestyle" Stuff?

Question

Why is being gay called a "Lifestyle?"

How is being gay in anyway a style of living?

Has anyone ever seen a;

Gay house
Gay car
Gay clothes
Gay house plants
Gay shoes
Gay underwear
Gay food
Gay Income taxes
Gay PTA meetings

Since when is living a life, with all it's everyday, mundane duties, suddenly "Gay" or "Straight?"

How is my being a mom, being a sister, being a daughter, being a volunteer at my son's school, doing my job or paying my taxes in any way "Gay?"

"LIFESTYLE" is they way one lives their lives, the choices they make, duties the preform, the services and goods they purchase, the way the furnish their home and the things and people they surround themselves with.

EVERYONE does this, in one way or another...how is MY style of living my life a "Lifestyle?"

Answer 1

It's just one of those terms "they" use to suggest homosexuality is only about the physical and suggest that it can be changed.
Another subtle but persistent verbal attack. That's all it is.

It answers your own question. There are not of therse because they are not natural, just as being gay is not natural, it is a choice, therefore a lifestyle.

We were all created in the imiage of God, and God never has been, never will be gay. What we do is going against the very essance of life. If it were natural then there would be a way for gays to procreate and populate. But gays cant do that naturally.

I know what I am doing is wrong, it is a sin. It goes against life in general, therefore it is a "lifestyle choice"
