Homophobia still lives

If you think the world is not overpopulated, then you are a sorrier fool than I gave you credit for. We gays are doing the world a favor. If you can't deal with that, then just shut your mouth and quit showing off your ignorance.bases_loaded;1078103 wrote:You're an evolutionary retardent. You are not a good thing. The earth is not overpopulated, shut up with your bull**** agenda. Nothing normal with homosexuality. -

Because someone doesn't vote the way you want them to ,that makes them intolerant?FairwoodKing;1078106 wrote:I didn't say all young people are tolerant. But the under 35 crowd overwhelmingly votes for gay rights. It's the over 50 crowd that remains our problem. -

OK, sorry. Being homosexual is not a "normal" thing. It is very different. Teh gays can be just as normal as anyone else, but their choice to do the gay-sex stuff is not normal sexual behavior.FairwoodKing;1078138 wrote:How in the hell would you know? -

So has downs syndrom and cleft lips. And if homosexuals would quit hitting from both side of the plate, They would breed themselves out of existense.FairwoodKing;1078094 wrote:That's not true.

As far as the need to make more babies, let me remind you that this planet is woefully overpopulated. The planet cannot continue to house this many people forever. The fact that I don't make babies is a good thing.
If I announced to the world that I was only attracted to watermelons, I would expect that people would treat me differently because I would be different. When you are percieved as being different, society will treat you different.
Don't get me wrong, I could care less what you do with your junk ( as long as it hurts no other living bieng and is consentual). This does not mean that I have to understand it.
I have never looked at another man's ass and thought "Damn! I just have to get me some of that". By your definition of bigotry, This makes me a homophobe, and there within resides YOUR problem.
Homosexuality IS deviant. It does not mean that it is bad or evil, but it is deviant. -

I find myself agreeing with Devil's advocate more times than I ever remember.
I don't have a problem with gay people, I think this whole "woe is me" I'm gay shit is annoying and turns me off completely from the gay rights movement. -

The American Psychiatric Association disagrees with you. Decades ago they determined that being gay is normal for people of that persuasion. It is as normal for me to be gay as it is for you to be straight.Devils Advocate;1078154 wrote:So has downs syndrom and cleft lips.

When the police beat up gay men and call them f a g s and refuse to let them put their pants on, then it becomes a problem that the gay community is going to deal with.sleeper;1078171 wrote:I find myself agreeing with Devil's advocate more times than I ever remember.

The one thing I will add on here is that it is fool's gold to think that once the old timers keel off the world will be all rosey and we will soon be living in liberal utopia because the under 35 crowd is more progressive-minded.
Like every generation, the young people get older, have families, careers, responsibilities---- they get more conservative in their thought process. Think about this for a minute-- these 60 and 70 years old crusty old farts we have today were the Hippies 40 years ago. No generation were ever about free love, community living as that generation. The 35-50 year olds we have today grew up in an era of racial harmony: Bill Cosby was America's dad, Michael Jordan was the world's greatest athlete, the best musician was Prince, and so on and so forth.
What you will see in the next 20 years is that after the Occupy Wall Street crowd grows up, they will become the new old farts who supposedly are closed minded, while their children will be the ones who are so enlightended. It happens every generation. -

I get abused for being a human, can I be special to? You definitely are claiming to be special when you make the distinction that both of these men were gay. Why even use the word gay? In this scenario, two men being abused by the cops is just as bad but you had to throw in the "gay" word to describe the people. You want special treatment, you aren't going to get it.FairwoodKing;1078192 wrote:We don't claim to be special. We just refuse to be abused for what we are. -

You are justifying being gay as a way to help control the world population, You shouldn't forget about the AIDS epidemic you guys have also contributed to help control of the population. I guess we should be thankful that gay people are looking out for our well being.FairwoodKing;1078094 wrote:That's not true. Homosexuality has existed in every civilization throughout recorded time.

Today's young people have grown up with gays and Muslims and all sorts of people that their parents never encountered. Although these people will grow more conservative with age, they will still have their gay and lesbian friends and will not be prejudiced against them.Little Danny;1078225 wrote:The one thing I will add on here is that it is fool's gold to think that once the old timers keel off the world will be all rosey and we will soon be living in liberal utopia because the under 35 crowd is more progressive-minded.

You're discounting an entire segment of the younger population that is already prejudiced. -

There's no hard evidence to support that theory. While it's true that we won't win everyone over, we will win enough hearts to provide us with the human rights we are now lacking, such as same-sex marriage.pnhasbeen;1078295 wrote:You're discounting an entire segment of the younger population that is already prejudiced.
If you don't believe me, just look at the military. Getting rid of Don't Ask Don't Tell has had very few if any repercussions. There are already gay societies forming at military posts. The other soldiers don't care. If the military can do it, then the rest of us can.
