(6,234 posts)Is how quickly these people reacted to the question and reconsidered their earlier answers.
The question itself is interesting. Anyone who concludes that gays choose to be what they are is obviously looking at it as a behavior rather than an attribute. They would have to believe that gays are not REALLY gay, they are just straight people acting out or with some kind of mental disorder. But the speed with which these people reversed themselves suggests that most of them had not really given the matter a great deal of thought, they did not really believe what they were saying, nor were any of them seemingly bothered by the challenge to their own beliefs the challenge presented.
The country is changing. Even in the deep south the attitude towards gays is shifting towards indifference. I have seen this myself very clearly over the last half dozen years.
