How can anyone tear into someone for being what he/(she) is from birth?
I am as hetero as they come, but I also understand (true) homosexuals do not choose their sexual orientation. Just as I did not choose my heterosexuality.
That they are sexually attracted to others of their own sex isn't something to hold against them.
We make homo jokes (I'm guilty), but fact is, a guy like Bob is, by all accounts, a very decent fella, and we should hope for his continued happiness.
