does not agreeing with homosexuality make me homophobic

Homosexuality is not a behaviour - it's an innate characteristic, present at birth.
Race is not a behaviour - it's an innate characteristic, present at birth.
Thus the two can be compared. As mentioned previously anyway, not every gay person has gay sex, just like (wow, newsflash!) not every straight person has sex. So this "behaviour" that you're referring to is not something every single gay person engages in. You asked: what one act do black people engage in that white people do not? The answer is that there is none. Now I'm telling you, there is no one act that every gay person engages in. Because NOT EVERY GAY PERSON HAS GAY SEX. So your argument is non-existent.

And no, I'm not gay, but you don't have to be to have and use a brain The way you're addressing the LGBT community is frankly hostile and off-putting, though.

Anyway, aren't you the person who gets really easily offended by people saying psychology isn't a useful degree? Who are you to tell me that I'm getting easily offended???? L O L

Not agreeing with homosexuality does not make you homophobic, as much as the left might want you to believe that. Discriminating against or holding unfounded views about gay people, however, is homophobic. If being against homosexuality makes you homophobic then being against Islam makes you Islamaphobic.

Then the correct term is "homosexual acts", not "homosexuality" as is this thread's title. And no, I don't think the difference is semantic.

Also, why would anyone "disagree" with two consenting adults showing their affection for each other through sex in the privacy of their bedroom, the act of which isn't harming anyone? Such a disagreement is irrational.

Difference is you can choose to be Muslim, you don't choose to be gay.

you absolute melt.

Seems pretty unlikely that a gay person would ask someone 'what they think about it'. And what on earth does 'not believing in it' mean in practice, beyond who he himself chooses to sleep with. Anyway fine for the OP to be heterosexual, I just gave my view that this type of ignorant and unnecessary comment is to some degree homophobic. And the reason it's sensitive is that negative 'not natural' attitudes have been linked to huge intolerance and harm. Thankfully times are changing.

I believe it's a choice as you are not born gay, no genes are inherited

So if it's a choice, why would people in countries where being gay is punishable by DEATH rationally choose to be gay? What reasoning would they have? And if being gay is a choice, why would anyone choose to be gay? What reasoning could there possibly be? They want to face discrimination? Be looked down on by wider society? My life would be a million times easier if I could just 'choose' to be straight. Your post just screams ignorance.

Yeah - I am wrestling with that one. But if I openly disagreed with heterosexuality, what are your thoughts on that?

I think I'd be impressed if you came up with a heterophobic viewpoint

When did I ever say that homosexuality itself is a behaviour? I said that homosexual people engage in a particular sexual behaviour, there's a clear difference. Every gay person is attracted to the same sex, most gay people will exercise their attraction physically (as do most people) and if I recall correctly, you initially said that said that its homophobic to disagree with someone who engages in gay sexual behaviour and now you're saying that not every gay person has sex? Either way, you'll call it homophobic

What have I said that is off putting? That gay people engage in sexual behaviour? Straight people also engage in sexual behaviour, are you also offended by that?

Saying that psychology as a degree is useless and being offended by the word 'behaviour' are two very different things LOL

So you admit that most people will engage in gay sex but not all. So there goes your whole ****ing argument: there is not one single behaviour that all gay people will engage in. Therefore you can't say that there is, and you can compare sexuality to race. What is so bloody difficult to understand about that?

And I'm just saying, you can talk about getting easily offended. All I'm doing is telling you the facts. You can carry on being a homophobe, but don't expect people to like you for it.

oh for goodness sake.

I'm a homophobe because I understand why some people disagree with homosexuality? I guess I'm also a homophobe because I won't date a gay person lol.

You're a homophobe for claiming that disagreeing with homosexuality is understandable and acceptable. It's not.

And would you not date a bisexual person either? Because there's no reason not to.. unless you're....homophobic?!?!

Ah, so you just like to throw that word around.

No, I probably wouldn't date a bisexual person either. I guess I'm also racist because I'm more attracted to black guys? I suppose I'm an islamophobe because I don't agree with some of their teachings? I suppose I'm also ageist because I wouldn't date someone over a certain age?

Why wouldn't you date a bisexual person?
