Look, you guys are clearly very misinformed.
Homosexuality is no different than basic heterosexuality. You're just disgusted by the gay sex ( dare I say it ) so you automatically jump on the Rush Limbaugh/Sean Hannity I hate-Gay wagon.
The fact of the matter is that homosexuality is what you're born with. It's been proven over and over. You don't just choose it. All homosexuals are not pedophiles, or terrorists. And they're certainly no more prone to you then you are to a woman. It's ridiculous how people say " Oh I get worried if gay guys will come after me and stuff " women have the same thoughts about guys, the fact is they are exactly the same as you, they are just a different sexuality. Period.
Jughead, you're crack about marriage between animals and humans being allowed is poor at best. Two people should have the exact same right to marry you have.

Your sexuality is not an inheritable trait;therefore, you're not born "gay" or "straight". You are born a virgin, and depending on your desirable outlook on the gender you're attracted to, will probably be the outcome of your future attraction to a particular sex. Biology proves you wrong, because the genes you inherit are the ones of your preexistent offspring. Meaning, if you were brought into existence, then you obviously had a male and a female, and the only possible explanation would be that you're born "straight", heterosexual, that is too untrue and falsely presented commonly. To say you're naturally born homosexual or heterosexual is totally incorrect.
I personally believe our society and other factors will have a great impact on the sexuality preference of any individual, but you are not born a certain sexuality. Same for taste in clothes, shoes, or a gender in this case. Instantly, when you spot a pair of shoes or some close you like, you are automatically attached to that style, but you are not born and configured to become apart of that clique.

Explain why at least 1,000 species of animals have been scientifically observed to engage in homosexual relations. Don't tell me it's a choice.

I think what two people choose to do between the two of them is THEIR business. I think it's beautiful to see people in love, no matter what gender's are or are not involved.
I think giving marriage rights to homosexuals is VERY important. Often times it's not about tax breaks, but individual rights. If it were me, I'd want to know that my partner was legally allowed to make decisions in case I was hospitalized and not able to make them for myself. Especially if I were at odds with my family. (Which I would imagine is a bit more common for folks who are out).
And I don't understand why other people seem to think they can dictate other peoples lives when it really doesn't directly hurt or effect them at all... I just don't understand being opposed to gay rights, including marriage. It does not make sense to me.

Exactly.
The idea that civil unions are helpful at all, they really aren't. Although a civil partner can do almost everything if not everything two married people can do, such as rights at the hospital, it's just seperate but equal.
Quoted from a gay friend of mine:
Which reverts us back to the 1900's up until the late 60's where we had blacks using seperate fountains, etc. It's that same exact feeling for gay people as it is for us to see blacks being forced to drink from a seperate fountain, or not welcome into the same restaurant.

Quoted from a gay friend of mine:
At the point where civil unions are objected to by gay people it is no longer a matter of legality so much as it is a social issue. We won't give you marriage we'll give you something seperate but equal.

I had a friend with a step father who was VERY conservative. We're talking military, hunting, slightly racist. A year after gay marriage became legal here in Mass, he admitted to my friend that it really hadn't effected his life at all. And he didn't know why he'd been so opposed to it, because in the grand scheme of HIS life, it didn't matter.
irviding,
finally someone who agrees with me. Someone always has a hint that they might be gay or bi anyway. I have always been timid around men and very close to woman. Thats just how I have always been, even if then I didn't know I was bi. Now that its out and I know it, I couldn't be happier!

haha yeah I've already gone through a lot. But I'm in love and if your in love, then screw what others think. The good thing about loving a girl is that she knows the same things your going through. She understands and can be there for you 😉
Comparing humans to animals is poor at its best.
In the initial post, I was kidding around, I honestly do not have a problem with heterosexuals, homosexuals, or bisexuals, except for a few exceptions EFC stated.
I've always been a shy person, that does not mean I was born that way, I simply adapted to the paying attention and speak to when spoken to, unless otherwise necessary.
Life is about choices, and what you do with them is your CHOICE.
Explain to me how if you are "born" with a particular sexuality, you have the option to convert from homosexuality to heterosexuality, or vice versa.

You're not born heterosexual or homosexual, to be born that way would mean that you inherit the trait or gene from preexistent offspring. Otherwise, it is a choice. Your gender, eye color, hair color, are all examples of inherited traits, but your sexuality is biologically not included in the blueprints of life.
You will always have natural attractions, and I have known this argument to be a real contraversial debate, but believe it or not, you're not born "straight" or "gay". You may not technically "decide" who you're attracted or attached to, but naturally being attracted to a certain sexuality has nothing to do with the genetic offspring, meaning you're not born homosexual, but you find yourself wanting to be around the same or opposite sex more so, and that is simply a natural selection, but not a trait.

Anyone who uses their head should feel this way. Here are the facts:Irviding said:I'm not gay or bi myself, but I am empathetic, and I understand the **** you guys take for just being the way you are.Krys said:irviding,

1. No one cares who you spend time with.
2. If you don't like it, get over it. It does not effect you. I don't like it when straight people are all humping and making out in public, but I don't go making a big deal about it. It is their thing, so be it.
3. I am not gay or bi, but come to your senses. You are hating on people that are different than you. Because of how they were at BIRTH. What does that sound like? Maybe like why people hated blacks and jews? Because they were different and "lesser". No. Gays are no different than anyone else.
4. If you did not know the person was gay, you wouldn't give them a hard time.
5. Everyone has something that others feel is weird. Like a funny limp or scar, something along those lines. But do we all go out and harass and protest? No. We don't think any the lesser of you. You are still a person, just the same as anyone else.
People are arrogant, selfish and narrow-minded. They think that just because it is not the common thing, it is the wrong thing. And lets not bring up religion. That is a whole other load of crap. Remember these are people we are talking about. Your friends, family, co-workers, buddies, associates.

Ok, being gay or bi is not a trait, but you can grow up really being gay or bi. Its possible and thats what happened to me. I never saw anything that made me want to be bi. I just am. No one decides to be gay or bi. do you think I really wanted to be made fun of? of course not. It was something I could not control
Exactly. You grow up and become one or the other. Same for the hand you write with, you are not born left or right handed, it is simply whatever hand you decide to write with in the beginning, and whichever hand you choose is the hand you will write with. Some people are able to write with both hands. In sexuality, the same basics apply. After birth, you will be introduced to the male and female, either being the same or opposite sex depending on your gender, and you will pick one or the other. The general hand to write with is the "right" hand, but others, including myself, write with my "left" hand. Or, you could say the general relationship, usually between a male and female, is the most common type of bond, but some bond with the same sex. I understand how most are mislead about being born with an instinctive sexuality, but that is not true, it is simply a natural selection.

I hate to burst your bubble, but they can tell before your bornw what hand you will use 😉
While you're able to point out genetics you're born with, such as the hand you write with, you fail to point out a trait that does not exist. Yes, I was wrong about the hand you write with, but you missed out on the point. I could easily substitute the argument with another trait that isn't existent.
On another note, if you're born left or right handed, that means that your family passed down a trait that runs in the family, meaning your family is the deciding factor in whether or not you're right or left handed. Although, please explain to me how homosexuality is passed down genetically if the reproduction system only works between a male and a female? Would your argument support the "heterosexual" trait, since it was "passed down" by your parents, and their parents, and so on?
I understand how you are able to come up with the heterosexual trait, but even still I don't agree with it, but I really don't understand your homosexuality trait that is somehow passed down at birth?
