I was kind of surprised by the number of people saying that the word "preference" is not offensive to them when it's the very word TRAs have been using to dismantle our sexual boundaries and redefine homosexuality for us. But then I remembered that this whole thing is about the ACB hearing right now. Liberals are just using gay people to politically dunk on her. I get it. My sexual orientation is still not a preference. I wish we could agree on that in spite of our party affiliations.

Yes the hearing thing is what prompted my question, but FWIW, I'm not really politically affiliated, not a US citizen, but do object to what appears to be a bizarre manipulation of language for partisan political ends.

What I appear to disagree with most people here (to my surprise!) is simply how to interpret the word "preference"!
