You should check out science books instead of the book of fiction called the bible then you would realize it is not a choice. Why would anybody chose to be gay? And if they could choose then YOU can choose. So, you are only choosing to be straight. You could just as easily choose to be gay and you would ENJOY sleeping with a man.

"Every living substance that I have made will I destroy."

Narrow minded people keep saying that marriage is a sacred bond for a man and a woman. If it was why is the divorce rate SOOO high? Why do so many religious people cheat on their spouses? Isn't that breaking one of those so-called commandments? By the way, which of the THREE sets of commandments do you follow? Yes, there were THREE sets!!! Also, the people who follow the book of FICTION called the bible should maybe read it!!! People take the passages that don't suit their agenda and change them so that they do. Also, the ones they like they do not change. You CAN'T pick and choose passages to suit your agenda. You have to either take everything as it is in the bible or you have to change everything.
