“What I'm wondering is if these people are right and I'm wrong. I don't want to ignore an opportunity to grow as a person if it turns out I'm actually in the wrong here.”

I’ll just repeat what I said earlier. It makes no sense. Like zero sense. No you aren’t in the wrong for being born the way you were born. You don’t believe it’s wrong to be homosexual, right? And you know it’s not a choice, right? So in the same manner it’s not wrong to be born heterosexual as it’s not a choice.

I don’t believe outrageous things that these people say have anything to do with them being politically left of center. These people sound very intolerant and angry. They are also quite ignorant thinking that sexual orientation is a choice. They are no better than homophobes.
