What is the purpose of breeding like cockroaches and causing all sorts of issues due to an increasing population?

Why are some heterosexual couples unable/unwilling to conceive?

What does any of that have to do with how well you treat fellow human beings?

Homosexuality shouldn't be as socially normalized as heterosexuality nor should it be harshly oppressed. Anything outside of that boundary range (not normalized but not oppressed) should not be permitted.

What needs to be in place are mechanisms to dissuade small mafia behavior of homosexuals in different industries and other domains. Sexual preference is a strong political unifier, and it has the potential to create mafia behavior. This is subversive to society and cannot be permitted by any group.

Another uninformed post in which you couldn't even acknowledge your flawed perception.

Your earlier post assumed that a gay man was attracted to a duplicate of himself.

I was telling you that is not true for most gay people.

It's why you see common subcultures within the gay community such as jock, twink, bear, leather, etc.

Most gay relationships that work involve people with plenty of differing or even opposite characteristics.

Does that make sense now?

Here's the thing. Why NOT?

What does that even mean?

Im not gay so I'm not concerned about it. I have gay friends as well as a few transgender friends. If they are happy then more power to them. My daughters have friends who are lesbians. They all call me dad.

Ashamed hell no.
Proud of? Why? Should straight people be proud that they are straight? You are who you are. Just accept it.

The purpose of life is whatever you want to make it. Some people want to make it about pumping out as many kids as they can. Some people want to make a lot of money. Some people want to travel the world.

Who are you to define the purpose of life for everyone?

Because homosexuality is a biologically and socially useless aberration. Its normalization can only do wider social harm. There is zero wider social upside to its normalization. Hence, there is zero reason for society to normalize it. There is only risk.

IE: the harm that comes from the obvious and very fast moving (after legalized homosexual marriage) slippery slope that now has people demanding that everyone see gender as "fluid". Which is a gross denial of reality and which is a movement that is tempting oppressive measures to make people deny reality in favor of ideology, is having clueless and confused kids take puberty stifling hormones with legal pediatric genital mutilation surgery on the horizon, etc.. This is very quickly realized social harm at a deep level.

This one reason why homosexuality cannot be normalized, but at the same time those who identify as homosexual should not have their private behavior suppressed (to deter revolutionary behavior, if nothing else). This is the best compromise for homosexuals and society. The Left's primary issue, and therefore this nation's primary issue, is the Left's lack of Will to make reasonable social compromises. Without that, you'll eventually destroy this nation. The downstream social effects of transexual progressive politics are well over that line, again as one example.

Homosexuals have no legitimate platform to want homosexual behavior to be socially normalized, other than spite. They should instead prioritize society's well being, as we all must do on some issues.

Pushing what feels politically good for homosexuals, all of the time and without compromise, is destructive to society and will eventually lead to a retraction of the Rights that they have won when society eventually lashes back after seeing the envelope pushed ever further after giving in to homosexual marriage. Homosexuals should be content with being unharrased in regard to their preferences and in return they should allow heteronormative society otherwise to do what is best for it in all regards. Remember, society has no biological use for homosexuals. It does not need to make a single concession. We all have our burdens, often carried for the benefit of greater society. Aberrant and socially useless sexual preference is that burden for homosexuals.

By far the dumbest statement in your post.

I'll offer another reason.

How about because I'd like to be able to socialize with other people I want to be with without being harassed or looked down on?
