You can be born gay and you also certainly can choose to be gay and have environmental factors that will/can make you gay as wel. Just like there are environmental factors that will make those who may be gay live straight.
And can we stop equating being born gay to hair/eye color, height and weight.

I'd be interested to know who you've chatted with about this "choose" thing. Every gay person I've ever known didn't make a choice no more than I made a choice to be straight.
More than one of them have told me things like "my life would have been a hell of a lot easier if..." and one person said "my dad would talk to me if I was straight but what can you do".
Just for fun, here's a scenario; there is this guy, Bob, and Bob likes women. One day he thinks to himself "well, I'm straight, but from here on in I am going to fake it and pretend I'm gay. From this day forward I choose to be gay even though I like women".
Does that sound reasonable to you? It must, because that is what you are proposing.
