Someone chooses homosexuality by engaging in homosexual acts by his own free will. The fact that he may have latent tendancies which were not chosen is doesn't prevent him from controlling himself. People have inclinations to steal but they don't have to follow them. If you tell them that it's a "valid" way of life, you just make it easier for them to sin. If you tell them, that it's sick/abberational behavior, or that the Torah condemns sodomy and Egyptian abominations, you encourage them to keep straight or to get help. Y. Samet
