So hey, What's wrong with being Gay?

[QuantumT]

I'm not sure what your getting at, because I don't think most people condone actual violence.

[Shrink]

to answer the name of the topic: nothing

+1

as of PDA's... where's humankind heading to? How come affection, as of love, is a despicable behavior, while violence is largely accepted?

Well, accepted may not be the correct word, but we're too used to it that it saturates our lucidity.

Yea,we don't accept violence, but I do see where you're coming from. Most people believe that peoples affection for one another is for a private time or in a moment of rejoice (such as a kiss and hug for someone who you haven't seen for some time) War is in the public. War is Public. We acknowledge and accept violence so freely because of the public outburst of it. You may see sex scandals from time to time on the news, but you never actually witness sex scandals in the public (If you do I apologize to your eyes).  It has become a norm for our society and we realize that that's something we have to deal with and we can't do much about it. People have a choice to keep their relationships and love life on the down low.

Really, our whole earth is seriously f***ed up in so many ways. This is very clearly one of those ways. I know PLENTY of gays. Is there something wrong with them? Nope. I really wouldn't have known if they hadn't have told me.

Yes, I am hetrosexual. And I would rant on about this matter, but I would offend too many people and receive teh banhammah.

Hmmm, a touchy subject. What's wrong with it? Well, mostly that it's not meant to be. Sorry to make this conversation more akward, but two males cannot reproduce. Also, I believe it is morally wrong to lust after another man.

I know I've already commented here before, but more thoughts;

Whats your definition of "wrong" (as in what's wrong with being gay)

From a biological standpoint, and from a certain angle of "wrong", I'd say having sex with someone who you can't reproduce with is generally wrong.  Biologically.  However, baby-making isn't the single biological goal with sex.  It is stress relieving, and it does a bunch of bio-babble jumble to your body and quite frankly it's healthy.

Morally; well that's just up to you.  I think its wrong.  Definitely not to be confused with my opinions on legal marriage.  But that is another discussion.

Doctor: Sir the tests are back. I'm sorry but you're sterile. Your marriage has been annulled.
Husband: But I still love my wife!
Doctor: That doesn't matter.

A)
So your argument is
1) Two males cannot reproduce.
2) Sex that cannot result in reproduction is not meant to be
3=1+2) It's not meant to be
go to B

B)
As has been pointed out above Sterile Heterosexuals cannot reproduce
1) Sterile heterosexual couples cannot reproduce.
2) Sex that cannot result in reproduction is not meant to be
3=1+2) It's not meant to be
(If you find this conclusion to be false go to C. If you find it to be true go to E.)

C)
A common response to the conclusion of B is to go with a softer claim for premise 2
1) Homosexual sex is not the kind of sex that has a chance to reproduce
2) Sex that is not of the kind of sex that has a chance to reproduce is not meant to be
3) Sterile Heterosexual sex is a form of Heterosexual sex
4) Heterosexual sex is the kind of sex that has a chance to reproduce
5=1+2) Homosexual sex is not meant to be
6=3+4) Sterile Heterosexual sex is a form of the kind of sex that has a chance to reproduce
7=2+6) Sterile Heterosexual sex is meant to be
go to D

D)
Sterile sex is a different kind of sex than non sterile sex
1) Sterile sex is not the kind of sex that has a chance to reproduce
2) Sex that is not of the kind of sex that has a chance to reproduce is not meant to be
3) Homosexual non sterile sex is a form of non sterile sex
4) Non sterile sex is the kind of sex that has a chance to reproduce
5=1+2) Sterile sex is not meant to be
6=3+4) Homosexual non sterile sex is a form of the kind of sex that has a chance to reproduce
7=2+6) Homosexual non sterile sex is meant to be

E)
Condoms reduce the chance of reproduction to negligible but still existent levels
1) Safe sex has a low-none chance of reproduction.
2) Sex that cannot result in reproduction is not meant to be
3=1+2) It's not meant to be
(If you find this conclusion to be false go to C and replace sterile with safe. If you find it to be true go to F.)

F) Congratulations! Your belief of non-recreational reproduction are consistent. However most will not share your view that recreational sex is immoral.

Forgive my ignorance.

What's PDA?

Public Display of Affection

[OldTrees]

Some people dislike seeing any PDA.
Some people are okay with Heterosexual PDA.
Some people are okay with Homosexual PDA.
Some people are okay with PDA.

I don't see why any of these things would personally affect you in any way.  Just go on with your own life

for me personally i view homosexuality as being wrong. i do however retain an open mind and a respect for those who do exercise homosexual activities and try my best to understand them. i have to say there can be psychological and even genetic reasons for being gay. a person may have experienced a traumatic sexual experience and gone of the other sex. genetically it has been proven that after a couple have had a certain amount of children of the same sex the newest offspring do tend to progressively become more camp. i have seen this in my brother (lol joke and i hope he never sees this post). i do have a couple of homosexual friends and find them mild mannered and just fine.
