No, the question usually works well to get a person to think that some things they think are choices others make aren't actually a choice they made themselves.

For those that think they chose to be hetero, I actually hope to get a detailed answer and increase my understanding. Because I know I didn't choose what I am attracted to, the closest one could argue is when I chose to label myself as gay, since there is a lot of grey area between heterosexual and homosexual that most of us actually fit in.


i don't see why choosing which sex to be attracted can't be similar to people having different tastes in clothing, music, food, video games, or whatever

so you're able to decide what tastes good? that would be so awesome, I would eat totally heathy and on the cheap if I could control what tasted good. While some things are an aquired taste. There are many more things that are not. Also are you able to choose what type of person you find attractive?  Most people  don't just like all women or all men, there are often feature and body types that some people like or don't. Would be awesome to just at will choose to like whatever.

I don't have the privalege of just choosing to like something. On the other end, I can't just choose to dislike something either. I could choose to behave in a way as if I liked ot didn't like something but that's quite different.
