Totally Gay

Lets not get too carried away with the idea that anyone has immutable traits. Who you ARE is a concept under constant flux, and has very little or nothing to do with genetics as long as we leave physical structure out of the picture. If someone loves to play the piano, can't for whatever reason we don't say that they can't be who they ARE.
Why can't we say that people ARE other things that they may or may not want to be in other cases, but we have to accept that sexual orientation inseperable from who a person is? If it's true, then wouldn't it also be true that we have other traits that others must accept at face value no matter what? Who gets to decide what these are?

(the thread was turning into the 1,000 list of gay figures/rant about how people need to stop questioning gay-ness, it needed some sprucing up)
