It’s been some time now, but I still have recollection of when it was decreed that you could no longer call homosexuality a lifestyle choice. It wasn’t a choice, the activists dictated to us. It was inborn, immutable, it was what they had always been and the only thing they could be.

I’m not so sure, myself. It seems pretty likely to me that it genuinely is a choice for some people, and for others has clearly gone past that. Honestly, I don’t care that much, as I don’t have anything at stake on the issue. (If it could be established one way or another, though, I’d be happy to hear the proof, because I like to know things.)

It’s funny, however, to remember that there was one group — a revolutionary vanguard, as it were — who once insisted that it definitely was a choice. This group? radical feminists. They told their members (and other women as well) that you very well could choose to reject men and have sex/romance only with other women, and it was a choice they strongly recommended.

Now feminists have been shoved to the back of the bus, to make room for the current Chosen Ones (that being the trans movement). But then, the Left has a long history of discarding its former favorites whenever expedient, or even when they’re no longer useful.

More on that later, probably.
