Let’s unpack, further, why being gay is not “irrelevant.” Like it or not, the very existence of gay people is political. That’s right: MY very existence is a political act. My existence has been turned into a political act by a variety of social forces (political, religious, whatever). I cannot escape—no matter how much the Log Cabin Republicans would like to pretend otherwise—the fact that my existence is simply not palatable to some people and that, as a consequence, my very being is an inescapably political thing. … Indeed, if you don’t believe me, I ought need only point to the fact that there are still people who will say things like, “Well, I believe that homosexuality is a choice.”



That view, right there (“being gay is a choice”), politicizes my existence. I cannot escape the politics of my existence because there are people out there who will not let me escape it. That the notion of homosexuality as choice is utterly bunk, is total nonsense, does not concern them—appeal to logic cannot breach such an invincible ignorance, because a mighty fortress is our bigotry.
