"When did you choose to be straight?"
An absolutely great video that shows a very effective way to get straight people to think about their view that gay is by choice:

And scroll down to 'On Gay Stuff and Honesty, Ctd."

1. On a different vein - how rude it would be to tell a homosexual they are a closet heterosexual
People have a right to own their own sexuality without anyone else claiming to know better than them.

2. You're always searching for a different vein.

3. I do ask people that sometimes
It really flusters them. They usually say "well I just know that I am." I ask "when you see an opposite sex person that you find attractive you get certian physical signals right?" they say "of course" I go on, "So when you see a same sex person you feel nothing, right?" Then I tell them, "That's how I know, too. see?" Most of the time they get it.
