Hey guys...I'm really tired of reading the idea on here that homosexuality needs to be "treated" in some way in order to get rid of it.
Either by discussing it as a potential "abnormality", or suggesting that homosexual acts on the other end of the country might somehow in some wierd magical-mystical-pseudo-psycho-abstract way change the relationship someone else has with his/her wife/husband.
Most of the anti-gay comments on here sooner or later start sounding a lot like five year-olds complaining because someone else was looking at them.
Homosexuality, whether genetic or socially adopted makes no difference. People will try to argue that if it's not genetic then it is a choice, but I personally can't identify exactly when I start "choosing" to find certain people attractive over others, and I'm surprised that some straight people are so amazingly gifted as to be able to choose all their feelings and reactions and urges...I however, do not possess such gifts, if I did, I certainly would never hurt again.
It's not like gay men are continually fighting their urges to go have sex with women every day in order to get it on with guys!
It doesn't matter what studies can prove or disprove regarding homosexuality BECAUSE IT'S NOT EVER GOING TO GO AWAY. You're either going to have to get on the boat and deal with your insecurities and adolescent bigotry, or you're going to have to move to antarctica, but I really suggest you don't have children while you're there because sooner or later, one of them will turn up gay, and then you'll have spoiled that too.
Homosexuals are born by Heterosexual parents, they come from all walks of life, and are prevalent throughout ALL of history IN EVERY CONTINENT, and in EVERY CULTURE(although historically speaking, most are what we would now refer to as bisexual)
So please, stop talking of it as an error that needs to be fixed as though what I do somehow has any impact on you, whom I've never even met in person, and don't even live in the same city as (several of you I'm not even on the same continent).
Your assumption that everyone on this planet must be like you or is inferior and faulty and destructive to society is pure hubris, highly derogatory, and thoroughly offensive. I am a good person, I have strong beliefs in who I am, and what I want, and a strong value system regarding what I feel is right and wrong, and what I do romatically is none of your damn business, and will never hurt you in any way.
How I file my taxes will never hurt you, my receiving inheritance from a deceased loved one will never hurt you, my ability to visit a loved one in the hospital will never hurt you. I do what I can just like everyone else in this world to get by with a modicum of self-respect and integrity, and you have no right to tell me that my choice to love another human being is invalid, and should be denied to me.
You're of course, perfectly welcome to not understand it. If you're heterosexual, homosexuality SHOULD be foreign to you, But condemning it as "wrong", "abnormal", "destructive", or any of the other foolishly judgemental labels thrown at it is just dumb. Primarily because the people attacking it so harshly ADMIT UPFRONT that it's something they don't understand! If you don't understand it then how on earth can you be qualified to judge those involved?
At the same time, I understand being afraid of something different, I understand being more interested in "being right" than admitting you might be an ass, we all have that problem, it's a human wiring thing, and because I understand these things, and do them myself from time to time, I have nothing but love for you, what do you have for me?
P.S. I once again request that people refrain from using the word "fag" on this board as it is a word that has its roots in the notion that homosexuals should be burned to death, and it is HIGHLY offensive and derogatory.
