Do you feel it is correct to teach children that homosexuality is normal and natural? (interview, extremist)

I guess if you only read evangelical anti-gay sources and RWNJ sources you would be unaware of the research.

I don't teach my children to hate religious zealots, even though they are not 'normal'. However I do encourage them to discover how religious zealotry and blind ignorance can be harmful to others.

I voted "no" with the key word being "teach." Sexual lifestyles of any kind don't belong in the classroom. If you want to do it at home, fine.

I don't want their school to teach them that either, which has always been the agenda of the radical, militant gays.

Then why do 43.5% of straight males and 36.0% of straight females engage in anal sex? According to a report on the CDC?

NSFG - Listing S - Key Statistics from the National Survey of Family Growth

Do you realise that there will always be more straight people engaging in anal sex than gay men?

Why are you obsessing about sex anyway?

The topic is about homosexuality, not sex.

You know, like adolescent male horses group together in bands and sometimes mount each other...no penetration. Same with canines.

Incorrect.

Really?

And what does this say?

I don't believe they engage in same sex intercourse, just a lot of genital fondling. Try again.

Do the female lizards engage in sexual intercourse?

He now talks as if he thinks he was "born gay" but being best buds, I know that he claimed for many years to have "turned gay at age 5."

Having known many gay people since childhood myself, I can pretty much assure you he meant "I realized I was gay at age 5." We barely even retain memories before age 4-ish, so how on earth could he remember what his orientation was AT BIRTH? He didn't suddenly turn gay, just as you & I didn't turn straight at any point either - we merely gained sexual awareness at a certain age, which differs depending on the individual.
