Most other societies in the world at its time condone or were apathetic about homosexuality.


Really? I'm not very aware of this fact, but I'll look it up. I've already heard about Hinduism and ancient Greeks being fine with homosexuality, but that's all I know of tbh.

Most other cultures were fine with homosexuality. China didn't care, native Americans saw them as special spirits.

If you say so...

I only bring it up because I'm sick of the 'anal sex is bad' 'argument' (I use the term loosely) against homosexuality. Because not all gay people do it - almost no lesbians and not all gay men. And straight people do it too!
:smile:


I am honestly shocked by the number of straight people who haven't tried pegging. smh

Personally I think it comes down to males feeling as though their notions of masculinity are threatened. It is usually males who are disgusted by gay men, though happy with lesbian women.


^THIS X1000

Because in the western world, what is considered sexually acceptable is defined by the views of straight men. So, to them lesbians are only okay because they bring them pleasure. And, their fondness for lesbians doesn't extend beyond the five minutes of **** fodder they provide (if these men even last that long)--- when it comes to allowing lesbians to marry and have children (to allowing women in general to be human beings), their fondness cools.

It's incredible that these men can enjoy pornography which centres itself around staged rape and humiliation of women who are "barely legal", but can't stomach the idea of two consenting same-sex people having a relationship.

Honestly, to them:

Despite what many people think homosexuals were not often considered bad or dirty. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_homosexuality (yes I know its wiki but its got verifiable sources)

"Devils advocate" - sure. :wink:



Nonsense. Where is the scientific evidence that long-term, innate homosexual tendencies can be taught through the very occasional PSHE lesson which relates to homosexuality?



Anecdotal irrelevancy.



Again, a worthless anecdote with no scientific evidence.



Even if I accept your nonsense hypothesis that the odd PSHE lesson can make a child gay in the long-term, are you honestly saying that this will happen to thousands, if not millions, of people? Being gay has been pretty much perceived as okay in a number of civilisations, including Ancient Rome, did they suddenly have a massive boom in their gay populations?



Are you for real? You think the main effect/problem of over-population is global warming? LOL!


You know I was playing devils advocate, let me explain.
The lessons must have an effect because Russia has banned them from teaching it, not to mention loads of other countries and many American states.

Until you said that bit in bold.
Yes. We have plenty of food to go round, if everyone went on a vegetarian diet, this would increase even more. Billions of tonnes are thrown away and we have huge stock piles.
So yes global warming is the biggest concern because that would cause droughts in some areas and flooding in others meaning people die from starvation.
Doesn't sound "LOL" anymore.

And that would be a problem how?




Oh, I see. I can't see that being too much of a problem, as I don't think enough people will decide not to have kids to change much of anything. In fact, if anything, I think more gays will save taxpayer dollars by taking more children out of the adoption system, which at the moment is full to bursting.

Glad you read the next bit :smile:

You assume gay parents would be better than straight couples and by that very fact are incorrectly generalising and putting prejudiced against straight couples that you don't want to gay couples, also that being said the main issue is that the process to adopt is very hard for anyone.

Well I would like to see your turn gay for a few years and tell us about your experience.

Schools saying that something is OK does not lead to increase on that thing. Schools have been saying it's OK to write with your left hand, but I don't see the rate growing anywhere near 50%.

It is possible and if I do, i'll let you know.
Just google straight people turned gay, there is loads of evidence for it.
You serious? Yes it does its called education and has profound effects, like global warming deniers have declined through the generations.
They are like vampires :smile: or maybe that's just me..
None.it's not like they go around spraying spreading their homosexualaity or forcing others. They are not somesort of disease.They cause as much harm as any straight normal person does

I assume nothing. The fact remains that gays are more likely to adopt, since they can't have kids of their own through normal methods, and so more gays means more adoptions.

Fair enough, but more doesn't mean better. Just saying.

More does in fact mean better, when we have thousands of kids in adoption agencies, waiting for foster parents.
No, homosexuals do no harm. But they do damage masculinity or femininity. Also they misuse the exits. That really causes lots of disgust.

Meh I hate it.

So that'll be that and everyone will move on with their lives and stop crying.
