Yeah that one guy standing there scratching his back looked all militanty-like and scary...

Basically, the gay bashers threw a party and no-one could be bothered turning up.

I want to learn something.

It's certainly in the minority, so it's an anomaly, deviation from the norm.

Aberration
n. deviation,abnormality, anomaly peculiarity, eccentricity, oddness…
So is having a high IQ.

so? I said as much; there are many examples of deviation from the norm in our culture and in society at large. That fact by itself doesn't make them all desirable.

I'd rather watch the grass grow.
I agree. Especially in cases like this. But I think all the attention and rallying, aside from attempting to correct us all politically, is also about attaining certain amenities of American citizenship.

Period.

People are "gay" or they are not, much the same as those with Red Hair or those who are Left Handed.
You are, or you are not .... Red Headed, Left Handed or "Gay".
Many left handed persons can be trained to use right hand to do most things, especially if the training starts early. Just a fact.

I'm also sure she could use her left hand still, just fine.
Learning how to read and do math is against most children's will. But we force them to do so.

I love how the left-wingers are all for someone going about and having surgery to change themselves into whatever sex they desire but if someone seeks to change themselves from being gay, then that is just WRONG!!!

So change yourself from heterosexual to homosexual and then get back to us about how things are going for you. Ok?
