I wasn't referring to the state of being a homosexual; I was referring to actually performing actions, such as having sex with a member of your own gender or doing the whole "drag-queen" thing. Those are specific actions that a person chooses to do. There's an inherent difference between performing an action and having a certain mental state, although I'm sure you'll disagree with this point and attempt to explain it away by accusing me of rampant homophobia. While I may personally not approve of the actions I listed above, I have never hated someone because of their homosexual orientation.
First off, being homosexual, and being a "drag-queen," as you so eloquently put it, are two seperate things. Men who dress as women (and vice versa) are often transexuals, people who believe that they are the opposite sex but born in the improper body, and that is a different case all together. Please don't try to gather all of your information on homosexuals from 'Will & Grace.'
Second off, let's do a little role reversal, shall we? Say that you are still you, but this society favours homosexuality. Would you deny a major peice of who you are, a largely defining chunk of it, just to fit into society? Tell me that, if the situation were in reverse, you would 'control your impulses' and stick with what it is society thinks is best for you.
