First of all, I have already tried posting this topic in Psychology, and I was told that it belongs here.
I believe that all human beings have a natural aversion to the idea of homosexuality. It is the same feeling that any normal person would have towards anyone with a mental disorder. It is natural to feel empathy and even pity towards them.
But suddenly it has been labelled as politically incorrect to feel this way. Now it is even politically correct to call it hateful if anyone expresses that feeling.
Ten years ago this was the norm, however. So I don't believe that all the self-described "gay supporters" are being honest when they say that they don't feel this aversion as well.
How did this change happen so quickly and why?
Sadly there will always be some emotionally immature people who have never really developed empathy and have an irrational fear or dislike of people who are different to them.
Perhaps in small backwards areas with poor education and closed minds.
Most intelligent educated people know that it is not.
Whether in backward areas or distant "erogenous zones".... human sexuality is complex and diverse enough "to stagger sextillions of infidels".....if one thinks about their own impulses and those of their neighbors, too much.....they will break their brain....really they need to give it a rest.

it was mostly an evolutionary trait, as humans' brains got bigger we had to walk more upright to keep from falling forward. by walking more upright, we (most of us anyway) stopped dragging our knuckles along the ground.
Homosexuality is counter-intuitive and flies in the face of evolution.
This is why many people have an aversion to it.
Tolerance is all one can hope for in this case.
Try looking at it this way, humans are all similar but not identical, with the exception of identical twins. All of our features vary, take feet for example. Our feet are similar but, be can't all wear the same size shoe. We don't discriminate against people with very large or small feet. We are aware of the differences in feet and accept them. If you can accept a variation in foot size, it should come as no surprise that the amount of sex hormones can also vary from person to person. There are people who for one biological reason or another can't reproduce and that could be seen as "counter-intuitive and flies in the face of evolution" yet we accept it. Homosexuality is no more counter-intuitive than any other variation from one human to another human. The only people that have an aversion to homosexuality are the ones who allow ancient goat herders to dictate their thoughts.

I agree with you, but remember there probably are some here on this forum who think having very large or small feet is a choice, is immoral, and is somehow harmful to families and children, and they aren't afraid to remind us about how immoral and harmful it is, over and over again.

Ozzy, it's OK. These feelings you have are natural. You're going through what almost every homosexual goes through. The self-loathing, the hatred, trying to change society to "protect" yourself. I implore you, GET HELP before your containment of your natural urges and thoughts becomes self destructive! If you want to do it quietly, this book would be a great help: Becoming Gay: The Journey To Self-Acceptance
