Logan Paul hits back at Christian influencer claiming sexuality is 'a choice'
WWE superstar and YouTuber Logan Paul has opened up about how he views sexuality as he pushed back against Christian influencer Bryce Crawford's stance.
Logan Paul struggles to understand Christians claiming homosexuality is "a choice".
The outspoken WWE superstar and YouTuber was speaking to Christian influencer Bryce Crawford and pushed back at the idea that people's sexuality is anything other than how they are born.
During this week's episode of his own Impaulsive podcast, he said: "I'm a straight man... You guys, I have a wife, please believe me [laughs]. I'm a straight man, as far as I know.
"And I don't know why I am that way, other than I think I was born to be attracted to women.
"There are plenty of gay people on the planet who, I believe, were both in the same way but were attracted to those of the same sex.
"There's just too many people who are attracted to the same sex to be like, oh, this is either, A, an anomaly, or B, they're choosing this lifestyle."
He pointed out that being gay can "make living a little harder" when it comes to people and religions judging them.
Bryce argued that love, and being gay, "is a choice", but Logan wasn't convinced.
He added: "If you think being gay's a choice, why would a gay person choose a lifestyle that is probably much unnecessarily harder than being heterosexual, because of judgement and being shunned, mocked and made fun of?"
Logan also argued against Bryce's "verbiage".
He said: "Bro, even the verbiage is crazy. 'Struggles with homosexuality' is nuts. They're not struggling, they're just proudly gay!"
Back in 2019, Logan apologised for his "poor choice of words" after saying he would "go gay for a month" while discussing New Year's resolutions on his podcast.
He said at the time: "We’re vegan now, and we’re sober. But February we are going to go the opposite.
"And then March... it’s male-only March. We’re going to attempt to go one way, swing, and then go back.”
His comments sparked backlash, including fellow YouTuber Daniel Preda accusing him of "baiting the gay community".
He suggested Logan should use his platform "as a voice for those LGBT+ people who have no voice".
Logan promised to discuss the situation on his podcast, and wrote on X: "Very poor choice of words… My fault."
