Personally I do not think sexual orientation is a lifestyle but more of something that you're born with. For example I'm going to use a tumblr post I have seen recently. So Orange is the New Black had its new season recently released and Ruby Rose is now a part of the cast. The post would say something along the lines of

"If you're a straight girl and you just watched the new OITNB, I've got some news for you. Ruby Rose just turned you into a lesbian."

This just makes it seem as if being gay is a choice that you can change into for personal convenience. It really diminishes the actual issues that the lgbtqia+ community faces when it comes to people telling them that they are choosing to be a special snowflake. If they wanted their lives to be easier they would not choose to identify as something that will get them ridiculed, fired from their job, not marry (until recently), be denied service at a business establishment, and in some cases beat up and killed. So when people say that being queer is a life choice it really turns me the wrong way.
