[Classic] The Lottery of Fascinations

I. Suppose I were to come out tomorrow as gay. I have amazing and wonderful friends, and I certainly wouldn't expect them to hate me forever or tell me to burn in Hell or anything like that. But even more than that, I think they would understand and accept the decision. There would be a lot of not-so-obvious failure modes they could fall into, but wouldn't. For example, I don't think any of them would say something like "Oh, obviously you just haven't met the right woman. I know this really cute girl Alanna, a friend of my sister's. I'll introduce you next time she's around." Or "You must have just had a bad experience with women growing up. Maybe you always got into fights with your mother as a child. But there's no reason to let that control you now."
