And I'm sure it would be impossible for someone to have the genetic code to choose. Inconceivable.
Read around the bottom. Studies have not made a conclusive answer to what causes alternate loveualities, but it's widely agreed to be genetic or environmental. AKA out of a person's control. Besides, being gay isn't exactly a stroll in the park. People will be prejudiced towards you, you're more likely to contract AIDS, your family and friends could disapprove of your loveuality.

Besides, even if there were people that choose their loveuality, why do you care? If it makes them happy, let them do it. But I think the studies previously mentioned are significant enough to make it the best conclusion for now.

I care because everyone assumes they don't exist. If they do, I'm sure they don't appreciate it.

Exactly, I don't know why people get their panties in such a bunch over it.  It honestly doesn't even effect you remotely.  Except for the occasional, "Sometimes their parades block my ride down the street".

Unless of course you blindly follow a religion in which it tells you to discriminate against someone.

I've not met someone who claims to have decided their loveual orientation. The LGBT movement is generally very welcoming to other gender and loveual minorities (like aloveuals for example) so if a group within LGBT had claimed they picked their loveuality, surely they would be accounted for and included. If you can find evidence of one of these people (and not one who claims to have reformed or made some kind of compromise to appease anti-gay activists) then I might give your theory merit.

A (aloveual) isn't exactly something that requires support, I mean who hates aloveuals, being aroused by nothing should be inherently inoffensive

this is where you are wrong

First of all, I am not saying that aloveuals are oppressed by law in anyway; however, the way society views them has negative effects that certainly merit them to be part of a minority group.

Aloveuals have absolutely no representation anywhere in the media, and that's the biggest issue. Usually, people brush us aside because we're "nothing." Why does not having any loveual attraction mean invalidation? I hate having to hear people say things like, "You'll grow out of it," or "There's someone out there you'll like," and it's not like gay people don't hear things like that. By adding A to a group for minorities in loveuality and gender, you're giving us some form of a voice.

And it's not like we don't have to deal with the same emotional process as gays, biloveuals, and panloveuals. We still have to deal with "coming out." We still have to deal with feeling "wrong" and not being like everyone else. If you have the time, I highly suggest reading this 6-part article from the Huffington Post that I read a while back. It really explains the whole issue surrounding aloveuality better than I could have, mostly because I suck at explaining these sorts of things.

not to mention that homoromantics exists and they aren't gay because that requires loveual attraction

wow thirteen posts came before this i really spent a while to find that article huh

talking about lgbt in BLF is like throwing a piece of meat in front of a horde of hungry dogs.

I'll rename the thread to "lgbt discussion", hmm? :p

wouldn't L+ be more efficient
