This is funny. This street interviewer catches a lot of people in the hypocrisy of their views about "choosing" to be gay...
My old philosophy days remind me that the world first "big name" philosophy, a guy called Socrates, got himself killed for asking "inconvient" questions like the above interviewer. Sadly, most people prefer to remain complacently ignorant about their prejudices and ignorance. The Athenians got so pissed off with the probing questions of Socrates that they killed him.
Oh... I guess to be completely honest, I think Socrates was killed partly for his annoying inquisitiveness. But a big factor what that he was the teacher and confidant of a large number of high visibility aristocratic plotters who eventually did overthrow the Athenian democracy.
