Gay at birth?

I hope that day will never happen.

 

the pursuit for this knowledge is inherently good, in my opinion. we should never stop questioning what makes us work the way we do, understanding the why and how of humanity will help us progress as a species. bravo, to the the OP, for starting this thread in the first place!

oh, and, again. lots of animals have gay, gay sex: giraffes have all-male orgies, so do bottlenose dolphins, killer whales, gray whales, and west indian manatees. bonobos are one of our closest primate relatives, and the females have lesbian sex every two hours! (apparently) and the males engage in PENIS FENCING :lol:arry: (which leads to ejaculation)

 

But it will.

Leaning to not care about everything is an important skill. The world gets to you when you care too much about everything. Some things are better left alone.

One of those things are a person's actions in their bedroom. I don't care who you fuck, and I don't want to know who you fuck.

This seems to be a much healthier attitude than some pseudo-intellectual analysis of homosexuality that blames it all on the mother.

 

Is it wrong not wanting to have a healthier 'I dont care' attitude ?
Cause I dont want it.

 

I don't care

 

Of course you dont. You even put a smiley...Awww.
So here you go : Whatever

 

I sometimes wonder if the whole genetics/environment thing is a false dichotomy; maybe some people are born very heavily predisposed to homosexuality while others are born less so and become that way through environmental factors. Why must it be one or the other, for everyone?

Really, for most people (certainly most gay people, and really anyone without some moral nose to stick in) it's irrelevant whether people are gay genetically or otherwise. Whatever the causes, it's clear that homosexuality exists and is not going to go away. This debate is only given the importance it is because of the implications arising from traditional (often Christian) 'morality': if people are gay genetically then "they can't help it" and Christians and other moralists have to sort of grudgingly accept them. If it's not a genetic thing then it becomes 'their choice' - for which they burn in hell for all eternity.

There is therefore a political incentive for old-fashioned moral thinkers to argue for an environmental or even 'sinful' basis to homosexuality, and for pro-gay thinkers to argue for genetics.

 

I can't believe no one is impressed by the penis fencing.

 

I was impressed by animal orgies...I didnt know animals have orgies!
Penis fencing was the second impressive thing.

 

i don't control any of my drives or instincts

 

I would argue that since the populations of humans has grown so rapidly in the past couple generations, an increased number of gays is a natural way that population rates are curbed. This is one of several reasons people in heavily industrialized countries don't have as many kids.

No widely accepted modern western psychologists consider it an abnormality anymore, and the reason isn't political, it's simply the fact that the science that was used to classify it as such was contrived bullshit.

There are several reasons which could incline a person to be homosexual. I would think that in other cultures, people are more or less inclined to be heterosexual and not really express their feelings because of cultural taboos.

If you're too obsessed with how someone else get's their freak on, your probably suffering from something missing in your own emotional security, that makes scrutinising taboos counsoleing.

 

Yes, I am an emotional invalid.

 

I believe it's called cockfighting

 

Sardonicism is a crutch not to confront the issue at hand Piaf.

Learn to love it.

 

What issue ? I dont have anything to confront...

 

People are not born gay or heterosexual or whatever other sexual preferences they got. They develop those feelings.
But maybe the seed is already planted when the father planted his seed.

 

So were agreed that picture was kinda hot then?

 

Those guys are cute. Its a shame they are gay.

 

Natures answer to overpopulation = Homosexuality


Interesting concept but can you prove it?


Faerie Alliance would have us believe homosexuality is a direct expression of the divine. They were born gay because god willed it


hotwater

 

interesting, but i have to disagree. i don't believe that nature could respond to anything like that in a couple generations. if it did somehow become naturally benificial to have homosexuality, i suspect it would take many generations for a noticeable increase in the number of gays. also, i don't know that there are actually more gays; they are just more likely to come out than in the past.

well, with an increase in population, it would be natural that there would be more gays, because there are more people. but the percentage should stay about the same
