I was raised thinking I'd burn in hell for being gay, but I didn't have a choice. It's just who I am.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I didn't choose the fact that I was gay, but I did choose whether to live my life as a gay woman-that was the terrifying thing for me. Especially being a gay actress.
I don't think homosexuality is a choice. Society forces you to think it's a choice, but in fact, it's in one's nature. The choice is whether one expresses one's nature truthfully or spends the rest of one's life lying about it.
Gay is not a choice.
It's okay for me to be gay, but God didn't make me that way.
There's nothing wrong with being gay. I have plenty of friends who are going to hell.
And I do - make no mistake, I am a Christian and I believe in God, and I don't believe he makes mistakes. So I don't believe that being gay is not a sin, and in fact it's how you're made.
The truth of the matter is being gay is the way I was born. I believe this to the core of my being.
As a gay person, my life has been marginalized.
Most simply but profoundly, I chose to live an honest life, which I think as a gay person is not a given.
I chose to treat the homosexuality like I would treat any other form of sexuality.
