It doesn't follow that someone would choose to change their sexual orientation for a possible 9% increase. People dont spontaneously change their sexual orientation because its slightly easier to do it this way, otherwise the hardships and trials that the gay community had experienced the last 50 years could have been waved away by just magically turning straight. It's utter madness to suggest that is going to happen or people reading an article on a news site will somehow "decide" to go gay because of their pay. IMO you absolutely deserve the downvotes for this argument, and most people probably dont think they need to justify such a widely accepted point.
