Sorry.
I think it's unlikely if a person is truly a homosexual to persuade them to somehow change teams. While sexuality is fluid for some people, it really isn't for most people. Think about it. While this situation may be every heterosexual man's fantasy, what is the likelihood that any of you heterosexual men would turn homosexual? Given the previous responses, the number looks to be zero.
All I ask of you gents is to respect homosexuality as a valid choice, and when you think you can "tempt" a lesbian, that isn't being very respectful. And please, don't turn yourselves into homo puppy dogs. I see that often--the straight friend in love with the homosexual who follows them around like a lapdog. My college roommate did it. And watch out for lesbians looking for a male lapdog--a friend of my SO's from high school loves doing this to men because it fucks with their heads. It isn't nice, but then, what they are doing (trying to do stuff for her to get in her pants) isn't very nice to her.
So watch yourselves, and remember, it's up to the person to evaluate and change their sexual orientation, not you.

Quoted for mother-fucking truth. (Minus the "choice" part - I agree homosexuality, in the large majority of instances, is not a choice.)

Put a sexuality tendency in there, how is that any different?
If they aren't into you they aren't into you. plain and simple.
you injecting ethics into the mix seems to remove the whole idea that the other individual has a choice. This isn't much different than continually propositioning a person who is married, engaged, or has a bf or g/f.

That too.
"Tempting someone to switch teams," which implies they aren't already interested in you, just makes you a sleazeball who doesn't know how to take "no" for an answer. If the person has already expressed an interest in you, but is reluctant because they previously identified as homosexual, then no one is tempting anyone. That person is merely dealing with a new dimension of their sexuality.
