The abuse of the nice English word "gay" was pushed for political reasons and just because it became popular in the media does not mean that ordinary people, including homosexuals, must accept that title and this stupidity. Homosexual people need not agree with your politics and like anyone else, sometimes they are happy, other times they are sad, sometimes proud of things they do, other times ashamed of them, but very rarely jolly and proud of their sexual orientation as such.
«As for sexuality being an "affliction?" - I really don't know why you would think or suggest that.»
The need to look for sex is an affliction which disturbs the mind. It produces the haunting thought that "something is missing which only sex can fill" and that creates tension. Some of this tension can be temporarily relieved during [good] sex, which allows us to relax a bit, but then it comes back and our sexual expectations increase: just imagine how happy and healthy we could be if that tension never existed, so we would never feel that anything is missing to begin with and could be relaxed and fulfilled the whole time, just like immediately after the greatest orgasm...
Most people (regardless whom they feel attracted to) fail to notice this because they take the sexual tension for granted and cannot remember when was the last time they felt so relaxed and carefree - that was before the onset of puberty, though sadly for many, only much earlier if ever, because they absorbed sexual expectations at an early age from their parents, teachers and peers (and yes, that's a grave abuse even if nobody physically touched them sexually).
«If you are gay - it's just who you are, as heterosexuals are just who they are.»
Well of course you are who you are, that's a tautology, but you are not your sexual orientation just like you are not, for example, your asthma or your tooth-ache: these are only secondary attributes of your body and/or psyche, they are not you.
