    So many people seem to hold on to distortions, myths and outright lies about homosexuality, and use these to keep homosexuals as second class citizens.

    When facts are presented in the discussions, they are completely dismissed.

    How can you have a discussion if authorities presented and facts backed up with citations are just dismissed out of hand???

    Does this mean that no discussion can really occur here???

    I changed to this forum thinking it would be more adult and thoughtful than the last I was on.

    Was I wrong???

    If so, does anyone have an idea of where I could go next??

    I replied to your other one. :(

    Make it fun. Let people see who you really are.

    I asked if you would breakdown my stereotypes of lesbians...

    Is it true that all lesbians love Celestial Seasonings tea and drive Subarus?

    Now, read me on it! ;)

    Sorry. Sorry. I kid. We're a very adult, thoughtful group of peeeeeeeeBWAHAHAHAHA couldn't even type that sentence.

    No, seriously. This place is actually better than most, I think (at least from what I've seen).

    But we're still all internet people.

    Since it's a political forum, have you tried talking politics or did you just come here to talk about being gay?

    The right wing has successfully made being gay an issue politically. She's entitled to the same free speech you use to inject your venom.

    Absolutely. The only thing she's not entitled to is demanding how people react to her free speech. For example, this thread was started in the Political Opinions & Beliefs... even though we have a section for gay & lesbian issues.

    See how that works?

    I wrote you a long response on your other thread and by the time I finished it, they had closed the thread.

    Basically what I said was, if you want to be gay, be gay. It's your right. But don't try to convince people that it's "normal" behavior, because it ISN'T. Evolution could have made procreation need only one gender but it didn't.

    If you removed the sexual part from homosexuality, you would have a brother loving his brother or a sister loving her sister.

    Go try to give your non-gay sister an orgasm. See if she lets you between her legs.

    Homosexuality is about sex. Woman can love woman without sex. That is not homsexuality. Only when sex enters....

    Evolution did not make sex normal between two of the same gender. I don't have the time to write everything I did before. If you can't figure out from here, too bad. :)

    I don't have a prob with gays or lesbians. It's just they're so obsessed with their own sexuality... it gets really tiring. We all have sex lives but most of us don't identify our entire being with what goes on in the bedroom. Just boring after awhile.

    It is liberals who have made being gay a political issue because any idiot knows that homosexuality is counter to Evolution and good sense.

    But since liberals (the Left) tend to want to excuse wrong-headed behavior so that their own wrong-headed behavior will be excused, we now have a society full of the most moronic behavior going on, and it's all in the name of "rights" and "freedom", but should actually be recognized to be in the name of "a- or im-morality".

    How anyone could be so stupid as to not recognize that killing a fetus or boinking someone of your own gender in the fanny is wrong-headed, is almost beyond me.

    Not quite, but almost.

    Have you ever talked to a gay or lesbian??? I don't remember ever talking to anyone about what goes on in my bedroom. I've never heard anyone else do that either.

    Did you make this up???

    The answer is yes.

    It is a means of belittling people that she may better dismiss their concerns.

    There is nothing:

    Abnormal

    Immoral

    Exceptional

    About homosexuals.

    We are just normal people who happen to be attracted to the same sex. Why do you care who we are attracted to???

    Nope.

    Homosexuality in nature. I doubt very seriously you are unaware that homosexual behaviors appears in nature.

    Right. Its all a vast conspiracy.

    Or maybe it is exactly what people claim it is? Equal protection in the law?

    That's right. And the REASON they're so obsessed with their own sexuality is that they recognize how absurd homosexuality is.

    Homies aren't bad people, they won't go to hell (they're already IN the only hell there is), they shouldn't be arrested or shunned. I don't hate them, most people DON'T hate them. I don't fear them (ha ha what a concept), most people don't fear them. I don't think I care if they have unions (tho marriage is for men and women), and I suppose it's fine that they have the same rights as other "couples".

    But to try to convince society that "gay is ok" is one of the most naive and backwards endeavors in the world.

    Republicans make hay of the one man, one woman propaganda. The right wing hates the gays, ask Jerry Falwell's crowd. They're as republican as it gets.

    Nope.

    The reason why their sexuality is an issue is because the religious right denies them basic civil rights based on their sexuality.

    I am right wing and I don't hate gays.

    Do I think homosexuality is abnormal, yes it is. I believe marriage should be left up to the people and not even have government involved in it. So what you just said above is a complete and utter failure of the truth.

    I was going to bring this up, but you beat me to it. It's just the gays who are so obsessed, like you said. No one feels like they have to name themselves "Straitdad".

    It's an obsession with their own sexuality... and they can't understand why we're not all so obsessed with their sexuality. Sometimes they act like they invented sex.
    It's crazy.

    We are totally normal people except for the fact that we are attracted to the same sex. Why wouldn't that be okay???
