I always find it funny that homosexuals say that they may have,(at some time in the past), chosen a hetrosexual lifestyle bought about by a desire to have kids or because of social pressure, real or imagined and yet they get absolutely outraged when you suggest that they choose a homosexual lifestyle. Interesting that they can manage to choose one and yet have no choice over another.

It's because those who ask that question usually mean "choosing to be homosexual", not "choosing the gay lifestyle". It's the old behavior as opposed to orientation problem. Any straight can act like a homosexual, even to the point of performing same-sex acts. Any gay person can behave straight. That says nothing about their orientation. We get incensed at the stupidity of the question when it suggests that orientation is a choice. We have no objection to talking about the behavioral adaptations we've had to make, even those we wanted to make (to have kids for example), in order to get along in society.
