Brainwashing can be devastating...

The cousin of a friend of mine has engaged me in conversation about homosexuality being 'a choice'. I explained to him that while it's true I COULD sleep with a woman, it does not mean that I could live a fulfilled life with her and that something would always be missing. I then asked him if he could live in a loving, committed relationship with another man.

His reply?

I don't know. I've never been in a relationship.

At least he's honest, if not misguided.
