are you being dumb on purpose? it's not about choosing to have sex with someone, it's about who you find attractive and fall in love with.
There was a time when people considered homosexuality as a disorder and criminal perversion. Shock therapy, castration, and toxic chemicals were considered remedies to ail the demon spirits. There may be "conclusive evidences" from "multiple sources", but I'm satisfied that it was dropped from the DSM which was based of its own conclusive evidences and has been the cornerstone of #progress.
By your logic, I guess being hetero is a choice too As is drinking water, eating food, walking around....nothing to do with how genetically programmed humans are....
There are many gays who choose not to engage in anal sex. Of course, it's not just about the sexual act, but you're ignorant to begin with, so it doesn't surprise me that you reduce it to a simple matter of carnal preference.
lots of people ignore their urges to sleep with people of the same sex. yes, because if a homosexual doesn;t have homosexual sex they will die...... good grief. Also, sleeping with the opposite gender would be a choice as well. Very simple, you choose who you sleep with. Engaging in homosexual behavior is a choice that Broussard disagrees with. This does not mean he hates people who do....
So you disagree with murder but you have no problem the murderers. Gotcha. Hey look, I can strawman too!
Some may think this is ignorant, but I don't think he and all other gay players should be allowed to shower with the rest of the players. IF you say he should still be allowed, then do you also agree that men and women should be allowed to shower together as well? It would be uncomfortable for women to share a shower room with men, and similarly, men are going to feel uncomfortable sharing a shower room with Jason Collins.
It would also be uncomfortable for many straight men to shower with random women for a long list of reasons, the least of which being America's obesity problem. But, you know, go ahead and assume all dudes want to share showers. It's not like you're projecting or anything.
i disagree and say that the average man has this mentality. when did i say that? i'm just saying there are a few different reasons why men/women aren't allowed to share shower, one of the reasons being attraction to one another. i don't know about you, but if i had a gay teammate on my team sharing the showers with me, i wouldn't feel comfortable at all.
Pretty sure the evidence is more conclusive that race is not a choice than there is regarding homesexuality and it being a choice, but maybe i'm wrong.
when did I say that? Just because I may not hate someone I disagree with, does not mean I have 'no problem' with everyone I do disagree with. What strawman? I think you might have failed to read the original person I responded to.
As a straight man I find other men to be repulsive and I can't even think about having sex with them with out feeling sick. Me sleeping with women is not a choice but something I have to do. I imagine that's how homosexuals feel about women.
I am sure it is, but it is not really relevant to what I was discussing. The gentleman I originally responded to suggested that Broussard must dislike gay people since he finds gay sex immoral (the poster even compared it to racism).
If people knew anything about what biology tried to preordain for humans, you would quickly realize that monogamous life-long commitments are deviant behavior. i.e Coolidge effect In biology and psychology, the Coolidge effect is a phenomenon seen in mammalian species whereby males (and to a lesser extent females) exhibit renewed sexual interest if introduced to new receptive sexual partners, even after refusing sex from prior but still available sexual partners. also, the degree of sexual differentiation in humans would strong indicate a natural drive towards many different sexual relations. Framing heterosexual sex in marriage and declaring everything else deviant has been one of the greatest mindf**ks in human history.
I don't want to shower with other straight men. Who the heck wants to shower with men? I think players should be allowed to have private showers if they so choose.
There are animals that eat their ****, does it means that humans should eat their ****? Animals kill each others should we permit murder? And so on.. I have heard that argument coutless times, it is weak. To me homosexuality is a disease, I can not imagine how some people say it is ''normal'' for a man to have sexual intercourses with another man. It is not NORMAL.
Sure, homosexuality was not permitted for Jews but it is permitted for Christians now because it is not in the new testament..... I swear a lot of Chrisitians try to ''get away'' with some sins by saying it is not in the New Testament but only in the Old one while Jesus (peace be up on him) said in the Bible: "Don't misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose. (matthew 5:17).... I am not Christian btw I am Muslim.
Mammalian animals do not often murder their kin. There is a difference between murder and predation, unless you want to make the ham-handed argument that humans often kill for sustenance. Eating your s**t is unsanitary, and unhealthy no matter how you cut it. With that said, should there be discrimination against s**t-eaters? The end result of murder is a dead person, and the end result of protected gay sex is hopefully two orgasms (or hell, maybe more), if I have to spell out the differences between the two then maybe you're just having the wrong type of sex. The argument of animals having homosexual relations shows that there is a biological basis for homosexuality, and that animals and humans are inclined towards such actions. Insofar as to your definition of what is right or wrong is based on Abrahamic repression, one could argue that religious edicts are "unnatural" in the purest sense of the word.
