Let's see some proof that this kingdom exists and then we may take the desire to share it more seriously. Promising to share a pie in the sky... well... anyone can do that.

Any evidence that it does not?

I'm not the one making the claim that it exists. The burden of proof is on those who do.

Hmmm, lets see. Do I consider myself superior to people (i.e. not just gays) who go around having sex with anything that moves, spreading diseases....YES. They should learn to keep it in their pants, or, if a woman, keep their legs shut. And yes, someone who is motivated by pure self-gratification and is unable to control themselves is no better than an animal.

Then you fundamentally misunderstand gay people. Gay people are no more or less promiscuous than straight people. All this time, you have been talking about people who can't keep their pants on. I think the rest of us were talking about people who wish to marry someone of the same sex. Not one in the same.

For the record, I think people who have sex with anything that moves, or who believe that they can have sex as often as they like with no consequences are living dangerous lives and I disapprove of that kind of lifestyle. BUT, I don't think I'm better than they are AT ALL. Honestly, I did when I was younger, because I was taught that promiscuity was wrong. That was before I knew people who conducted their lives as though STDs do not exist. Now I know that I'm no better than they are; I just live much, much more carefully.

It has been suggested to me that men in general are more promiscuous, gay or straight. And gay men are allowed to behave that way more often than straight men because women aren't keeping them in check. That is just a hypothesis I heard (somewhere on here), and I do find it disrespectful to many of my gay male friends, definitely. It has also been suggested to me that all men are ridiculously promiscuous before they get past the age of 23 or 24. Again, offensive to some people I know, but that's how generalizations are.

Considering both men and women, no, I don't believe for a second that gay people are more promiscuous. I don't believe that gay people are fundamentally different from straight people.

The way you constructed the post it reads as full support of her claim. You certainly didn't dispute it.

Well coming from a gay male yea we tend to be a lot more promiscuous. I do not really recall going to straight clubs where people are giving favors in the bathrooms and what not regularly. But i could be wrong. The red section might be right. I have been grouped every time I have been out.
