Layman subconscious tends to be dismissed by modern psychologists because of its lack of testability and falsifiability. However, the science behind subconsciousness is still based off of information the brain collects from its senses, therefore sexuality would still be a choice, albeit one we are unaware we've made, and one we're incapable of making until a certain age.
