You seem to speak for the GLBTQ+ community, so may i ask are you part of it? or do you just assume and make ignorant comments on your own behalf?

Why is that at straight bars and pubs fights always break out yet at gay places there's never a murmur?
Why are you hanging out in so many gay places?...
Why be straight?
The ability to marry the one you love was exclusively something only heterosexual people could do in the USA up until very recently. Are you not familiar with the historic systematic discrimination against LGBT? Are you not familiar with how prevalent the religiously held belief gay people are terrible things in the eyes of god? There is a plethora of ways gay people have been met with adversity simply because of their orientation. So to answer your question as to why someone would choose to be straight, i'd say to avoid that kind of persecution. That's not a choice anyone gets to make. No one chooses their orientation.

Why is that at straight bars and pubs fights always break out yet at gay places there's never a murmur? Football is predominantly straight yet it's marred with violent, racist drunks. ISIS is straight. The Nazis were straight. Why do so many gays go into the caring professions and become eminently qualified and respected doctors and nurses? Why are homosexuals so much more into raising money for charity? If being gay is a choice then it would seem to me to be the better one than being straight from a historical and sociological point of view. Why be straight?

I am shocked that you didn't even notice in the article that a lot of them debated whether or not they were truly homosexual. That showed that you really didn't pay attention. I would have thought you would have pointed that out.
Homosexuality in its myriad forms has been scientifically documented in more than 450 species of mammals, birds, reptiles, insects, and other animals worldwide. Biological Exuberance is the first comprehensive account of the subject, bringing together accurate, accessible, and nonsensationalized information. Drawing upon a rich body of zoological research spanning more than two centuries, Bruce Bagemihl shows that animals engage in all types of nonreproductive sexual behavior. Sexual and gender expression in the animal world displays exuberant variety, including same-sex courtship, pair-bonding, sex, and co-parenting--even instances of lifelong homosexual bonding in species that do not have lifelong heterosexual bonding.

This might be worthy reading material. The book Biological Exuberance: Animal Homosexuality and Natural Diversity.

You indicated that here is the proof, yet no proof to be found.
You stated that you stopped reading further.
And no I didn't indicate that it was proof. I said it was an interesting read. Pay attention!

Ok, but we Can, so the argument that Homosexuals can't Reproduce is invalid. i understand that Same-Sexes can't reproduce in what you consider "Natural Way" but if there was Gay Men and Gay Woman on an Island, we could still reproduce
