Proclaiming a sexual preference is something that straight men never really have to bother with.

As anyone who is gay will confirm, being that way is not something you become, it is a set of emotional and physical responses that just are.

My reasons for declaring a sexual preference had to do less with the pursuit of personal freedom than with the lust for pure shock value.

Coming out involves varying degrees of difficulty that are affected by class, race, religion, and geography.
