Why would I ask them that? You seem to imply that "choosing" to be gay should preclude homosexuals from signing marriage contracts with another (whereas, I'm assuming, being born that way, would not). I'm asking you why it makes any difference. Choice, birth, who cares? None of it affects your ability to put pen to paper in a legally binding way.

As to whether or not you screw your dog, I must admit that I don't care one way or another. And, if you want to lobby for that to be legal, I say, have at it. That "law" has no real bearing on me one way or another, so I have no real opinion on it.

Why do you conflate "legal" with "normal"? It's legal for men to wear women's pantyhose and a thong at the beach... are you saying that's "normal"?
