As a gay person, I don't "...suffer from same-sex-attraction...", as you put it.   It's simply an attraction that I have, much as you might be attracted to person of the opposite sex.  The suffering that I experience is the bigotry and hatred both in society and in the Church.  I've said for 30 years or more that if God created me in his image and likeness, and he created me gay (it's NOT a choice), then he won't condemn me for who I am.  It's bigoted comments like yours that cause more suffering to me than being attracted to other men.
