I think you mean "stick it to the conservatives" about whether being gay is a lifestyle choice. Being LGBTQ is fine and normal, and I do not believe it's a choice. Being straight isn't a choice, either, obviously.

I've heard conservatives claim being gay is a choice, but I've never heard liberals make that claim.

When two people have sex, they both need to understand they are taking risks.

For women, one of those risks is pregnancy. Getting an abortion is NOT a simple opt-out. Most women consider abortion a pretty harrowing experience to go through. Many a pro-choice woman will not choose to undergo an abortion, even as she believes the choice should be available.

For men, one of those risks is becoming a father. If you absolutely do not want to be responsible for a child, you should make sure very good birth control is used, or better yet get a snip. And if the woman tells you that if you impregnate her by accident, she will likely choose to bear the child, zip up your pants and go home. You two should not be doing the thing that you know can potentially make babies. Go forth and find a partner with whom you're on the same page.

As for llamas ... I think llamas are inherently funny.
