I was at a friend's house yesterday. She is dying of cancer and will be dead in days. Family and friends have been visiting this week. She has a 40 year old lesbian niece that was there with her partner. Christi is an attorney, scholar from grade school and active in her community. Christi LOVES her aunt. She had a civil ceremony a few years with her partner Barb.
They LOVE each other.
Nothing to do with your bias and lack of the understanding of LOVE in your world which consists, by your own shallow definition, of "pleasure and lust" in the relationships you have.
I pity you.
You have every right to pity whoever you choose. Arguing that being gay is ok because animals do it is so lame. And all I have to say is "dito" to you. I happen to have gay relatives whom I love dearly. And unlike the "majority" of gays who just want to be accepted and conjure up these pathetic justifications, my relatives have stepped up to the plate and accepted responsibility for their actions and choices.
My point is.....stop kidding yourself by saying it's some genetic mutation or disease that you got from birth. And stop using the oppressions of races and bestial practices of animals of the same sex as comparisons to justify your unethical practices, just to save face. And it is indeed "unnatural" for animals to practice this. Because thier sole purpose is to reproduce and play thier part in the food chain. You will NEVER find a plant or animal choosing a mate of the same sex. Why? Because it goes against the grain of all the natural and scientific laws of the world. Darkness /light, positive charge/negative charge, Male/ female, good/ evil. Put 2 male animals of the same species the same cage and see what happens. These are beasts, people!!!! They have no concept of conscience awareness and ability to reason. So they basically act on 100% emotions/moods. So to use them as legitimate justifications is not an excuse.
Accept the fact that this is the life you choose and you prefer the same sex. According to you, it's ok to be gay. So stop the contradiction of labeling homosexuality a defect if it is in fact, ok. Many of you confused individuals out there believe the myth that the laws of attraction are instinctive and we lack control of it. WRONG!!!!! Attraction is based on passion. And passion is fueled from choices we make and begin to desire. It is also associated with pleasures and lust, which are cravings. You aren't born with a passion to do anything. You choose what is passionate to you or not. I just so happen to be passionate about martial arts. Nobody in my family (that I'm aware of) has EVER taken a liking to it as I do. So there is't any so called gene that triggers my passion for martial arts. no family member passed it down to me. Heck, I'm not even Asian. It's something I saw, processed in my brain, chose to try, and I ended up enjoying. The same applies to sexual preference.
I never stated it was a disease.
I am a flannel shirt wearing, tobacco chewing, brew and bourbon guzzling, southern drawl ramblin, balding, former defensive end playin and born southern STRAIGHT MALE.
No one chooses their sexual orientation. We are BORN THAT WAY.
"accepted responsibility for their actions and choices" What a crock of shit you spout. I feel sorry for your gay relatives to have to listen to such bull shit.
Tell us about when YOU chose your sexual orientation.
You do know that CHOICE includes ALL or OTHER sexual orientations.
Never in a million years. I NEVER made a choice. I was always attracted to the opposite sex. Maybe it was different for you so tell us about that.
You stated that gays are born that way. So that indicates it's either a genetic mutation or disease. And as far as my relatives listening to me, It's the other way around. It is they who show and tell me the hidden truth and agendas behind homosexuality. And to say we don't choose our sexual orientation, is like saying we have no ability to logically decide for ourselves. And that's equating us to immature children or animals.
Let me see if I can break this down to you. You (along with so many others) seem to think that the initial force that draws us to something else, is the attraction. WRONG. It's the object that's on the other end of the force that really attracts us. And what brings us to that object is usually temptation. The force is actually 2 things: Random/ Chance and temptation. We are constantly put into places and situations randomly and by chance on a daily basis. Once we see what's on the other end of that force (which isn't strong enough to draw us in on it's own), we (choose) whether or not to be drawn in. And that's the act of attraction.
* note* Attraction is to temptation, as actions are to their repercussions. We all have the capacity to either ignore or yield to temptation. So therefore we do have a choice when it comes to attraction.
For instance.......I'm placed in front of a closed door( randomly). I open the door and see a girl on the other end. The girl happens to be appealing to me (temptation), so I walk through the door to her(attraction). All of this is the result of choice. If a beautiful girl happens to walk past me, It's by chance. And if I happen to think she's beautiful (attraction), It's because I developed a perception (choice) of what I believe to be beautiful (attractive) in my mind, based on what I was exposed to (society, tv, magazines, etc.).
There are 3 steps that attraction is based on in this order.
1. Exposure.
2. Perception.
3. Preference.
We are exposed to many things. Then we take in and process what we believe is acceptable to us (perception). Then what we perceive/ define as beauty in our brains, becomes our preference. We then place markers on all that we perceive to be enlightening/appealing, and in return draw ourselves to those preferences. That's what attraction is, in a nut shell.
