I hate to be the one to break this to you, but even if every gay person on earth were to vanish tomorrow (which would leave you with a LOT of free time on your hands), within a couple of decades homosexuality would be back. Reason: you heterosexuals keep breeding them.
If you want to eradicate homosexuality, you'll have to eradicate humanity.
Who said I want to ERADICATE it? Please, if you want to have any discourse on the subject...stop building strawmen.
being it takes roughly 800 years or so for any distinct observation towards any specific group in regards to natural selection...I'd say you're just flinging poo against the wall. Besides, reproduction is the trait most conducive to survival and I have that on my side, you don't.
Are you assuming that I have to be gay to be tolerant of homosexuals? I'm not gay, I'm just not a bigot.
And you took my statement too literal. The younger generation has been increasingly more open and progressive as compared to the baby boomers and older generations. That is what has spurned the recent surge in support for gay rights. As our generation grows, matures, and reproduces, we will not only pass down our genes but continue to teach our offspring about what equality entails. So yes, those who think like you will eventually be selected against.
The only claim I made was that homosexuality isn't a behavior.
Disprove that.
God exists...disprove that...
You see how silly that is? Don't shift the burden of proof on me for your hammerfisted claims.
If it isn't a behavior, then what is it?

No, I'm really not... Why is there such an agenda that exists to actually PROVE that transexuals are actually born with a certain "disability"?? Instead of piling it into classifications like dissociative disorders..they are trying to create it's own lane. Why? Because they want it to have it's own course of treatment...
Yes, sexual reassignment as a CURE. Then what happens when you have a "legitimate" disease that is classified by a bunch of fad fueled quacks and a treatment that is rubber stamped by peers?
You start pushing for it to be covered under SSD/SSI

Or maybe subsequent generations will realize that equality is a false premise? Or, maybe homosexuals will realize that they are a small part of a much larger group that has been selected against.

I would take the separatist approach. I am an anti-statist.
It's an orientation, or a predisposition to be attracted to one gender instead of the other.
Do you check out members of the opposite sex? Do you refrain from having sex with them even though you're attracted to them? Are you attracted to them even though you're not having sex with them?
That's your sexual orientation. Whether you act on it it not. It's quite simple, really.

Well, I guess that's the difference between you and me. I have no problem sharing society with people of many different backgrounds and sexual orientations. But you, apparently, do.
That's sad.
