I was pointing out the hypocrisy of the poster who was trying to demonize gay people, not 'attacking' the heterosexual population.

You haven't met many lesbians then.
Or to be more accurate, you have probably met many lesbians, but you just didn't know they were lesbian because they don't fit your narrow stereotype.

You appear to be admitting that your reality is skewed because you watch too much porn? mmmokay.

LOL.

I've met lesbians of all types around here, just as I've met gay men & straight people of all types... methinks these posters need to get out more, and stop spending so much time surfing internet porn.

A temp fix, at best. People need to not mind their own business, even on this issue. If everyone who was anti-gay just taught their kids to be the same way and never exposed their opinions to the public, there would never be any open discussion of the flaws in their logic. Therefore, no one would ever really learn anything (talking primarily of the younger generations, who aren't so stuck in their ways).

I tell you why. Homosexuals ADOPT children. A lot of children need to be adopted, you know. Heterosexuals may adopt, but 98% of them want their own, now don't they. Hey, I am an adopted only child, and that there is my opinion FOR A CHANGE...........!!!

also many of these children ARE gay. I knew I was gay when i was going to school, the only thing that would have trauamtized me is someone like you.

OF COURSE homosexuality is normal for HOMOSEXUAL PEOPLE. if it wasn't natural or normal it wouldn't exist.

that's like asking if trees are natural and normal
homosexuality is a behavior, being gay is chosen. two men can not have sex it is physically impossible. gay children are gay because they have molested. they have been imprinted by a sick perverted human being! every species have abnormalities in humans homosexuality is one of many abnormalities!

I challenge you to provide credible evidence to support any of this.

If homosexuality were truly normal, then it would have been accepted as so , thousands of years ago.

and no, I don't think promoting it at school is correct.

Would we really want our kids going into class and being shown pictures of 'what to do' etc.?

Yes, I believe it is correct to teach children to be accepting (not just tolerant) of other people's differences and that they should be respected for them. When I have children, I will teach them to protect those around them and to stand up to bullies who target children/teens/adults because of their sexual orientation. I will not raise my children to be racist nor homophobic because it is disgusting and reprehensible to be so hateful, and such behavior will not be allowed in my home.
