The support for it is greater than against it. According to this poll 44% of people in the US believe it is a natural occurance, while 38% say it isn't (page 20 of poll). Only 32% believe it is a mental illness as opposed to 53% who believe it isn't (page 22 of poll).
God is everything... even Discover Magazine. Do you believe God to be less than everything? I must be morally bankrupt to believe God is not less than everything.
Oh, NO! Our "country" is morally bankrupt! Maybe the land, rivers, streams, mountains, and wildlife still have a chance to be morally sound. However, there are plenty of examples of homosexual activity in nature (animals), too... God just keeps creating imperfections. Maybe God is morally bankrupt. Personally, I think God is doing a helluva job. Pun intended.
If a woman has a mastectomy, she might want to feel "normal" and have one. Some women have been taught that society prefers them to be big-breasted. I'm not saying it's right or wrong. But, if you can accept their choice, then you're not far from accepting what these people are experiencing.
Did you just mention the delta?
No species has been found in which homosexual behavior has not been shown to exist, with the exception of species that never have sex at all, such as sea urchins and aphis. Moreover, a part of the animal kingdom is hermaphroditic, truly bisexual. For them, homosexuality is not an issue.
What about them?
Even if you're not, it's okay. There's no "incorrect" way to be... just different ways. It's funny to me how men try to emasculate each other and insult one another by feminizing them somehow. That Y chromosome is a bitch (pun intended).
I don't personally believe that people are "straight" or "gay" anymore than I believe they're "liberal or conservative." They have preferences and typical behaviors, but they're never one or the other all the time. I think I recall reading where, in Roman culture, people who were completely heterosexual and completely homosexual were considered the "freaks" of the society. And, in a sense, that was correct because they do comprise the extreme minority of the demographic.
Or queer, fairy, pansy. It's also funny to me, now, when I see films depicting military training scenes. Ever notice how the DI's are always referring to the soldiers/recruits as "ladies!" "Alright, ladies!!" It must be confusing when they are also demanding they make their beds to perfection.Whatever you say snowflake.
You do realize that humans are one of the very, very few animals that have sex for pleasure? Almost all others for reproduction. How does that work for gay men or lesbians?
I guess because I think tribal instincts and behaviors can be overcome for the betterment of the species. We no longer need to be tribal. Well... we can be ONE tribe!
God forbid...
If we don't force them to be what we (the few remaining rational, morally sound adults) think they should be, then "our morals" will deteriorate. Somehow, our anatomy and gender preference is dictating morality. Maybe in a way, it is. But, it doesn't bother me. I guess I'm just not bothered by people feeling comfortable with themselves and how they show and share affection with other consenting people. There's something really scary about two men having orgasms with each other that scares the shit out of religious people. I keep picturing several posters here in the cafe scene in Easy Rider. They assume Wyatt, Billy and George are gay, and that threatens them, so they start that fear engine up and get even with them for making them feel "uncomfortable."Jeez. So much hate... and for the inclusion of children.
Well, I don't think you can accomplish that in mammals. So, we've covered that. Hey, that's one thing evangelicals should love about homosexuals- they never have abortions!
I got no issues what 2 or 100 consenting adults do together. I don't believe in it. I don't treat them any differently. But I'm also not going to try and rationalize it to myself, kids or grandkids. If everyone would mind their own damn business what difference would it make anyway? I don't go around announcing what my wife and I do in our home and don't care to hear what the LGTB community do nor do I want them forcing their beliefs on me or my family.
Those two statements show a contradiction.
Well, I'm afraid those are parts of the equation that allow politics to remain intact. The country... the species... would be better off if we could extricate Politics from the consciousness of the human race. Politics NEEDS conflict between people in order to survive. So, politics makes sure to keep it there as a self-preservation mechanism. It's very shitty institution. Politics and religion hold us back more than anything.
No, I'm pretty sure it will be thick-headed bigots like you that will eventually cause its demise.
So what's your excuse?
He sounds like he's at that stage of trying to figure out if he wants to make it with a man or an animal.
Typical left. Call names. What a hypocrit. The adults were having a civil discussion. You riot in cal last night?
If this person does a good job as mayor then she should be re-elected. If not move on and elect someone else but don't cry homophobe and all that BS.
