I chose to be queer because I can't stand straight cullture and dating rituals. Yes, the idea of only supporting those who don't chose, would be so absurd, it never crossed my mind. What I do think about is that most people don't udnerstand this and/or wouldn't believe it. That bothers me a bit, but is more about feeling alone in the way I see/feel about romance and sex.
I know many people view it as wrong. I did, and still feel that residual belief inside of me. I know it's just a bogus meme. I wish more people woudl realize that. But on the other hand, it being taboo, it was able to take me away from the programming of my childhood. I really needed that. So in a large sense, I chose it because it was so "wrong". And "wrong" is what I needed in the world I grew up in, which was a distguishting materialistic world, where the love of material goods and power was baked into the straight dating rituals....ew......
