Kenny, this is a good question and one that I don't think can be answered. Who chooses to be anything really? Oh we think we have free-will, and have the ability to choose what we want, but we don't. Most of "us" is pre-wired...in our DNA. I believe anyway. We may have some choice, like, do I drink the Scotch or the ale, but in the end, with the really big choices, I think we're destined to be, or choose, who we are.
Sorry, it's late, been doing some homework for a behavioral motivation class! :) Anyway, seriously, we are who we are. We're straight, or we're gay. I doubt we actually "choose" either one. My 2cents.
I think sexuality is more of a sliding scale than absolutes. some people are 100% straight some are 100% gay, but there are some that fall inbetween those ranges.

Yeah X it's called the Kinsey scale. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinsey_scale

0    Exclusively heterosexual
1    Predominantly heterosexual, only incidentally homosexual
2    Predominantly heterosexual, but more than incidentally homosexual
3    Equally heterosexual and homosexual; bisexual.
4    Predominantly homosexual, but more than incidentally heterosexual
5    Predominantly homosexual, only incidentally heterosexual
6    Exclusively homosexual
X    Asexual, Non-Sexual

X

What does incidentally mean in regards to the scale?
