Is homosexuality a choice or not

[pknopp]

I guess you go into a coma every June, eh?

Still no clue.

The opening of the actual study

"Across human societies and in both sexes, some 2 to 10% of individuals report engaging in sex with same-sex partners, either exclusively or in addition to sex with opposite-sex partners. Twin and family studies have shown that same-sex sexual behavior is partly genetically influenced, but previous searches for the specific genes involved have been underpowered to detect effect sizes realistic for complex traits."

See what you want to see but don't call it the truth.

Thank you

 

[Oddball]

Still no clue.

Yes, I know you have none.

 

[pknopp]

I might agree, but those other choices are not given protected class status.

All are being protected the same. Leave people alone and there is no need for rules to see that people are left alone.

 

[Mac-7]

One assumes based on this you've tried both ways.

Libs have an unfortunate habit of resorting to personal insults when they are losing a debate

 

[pknopp]

Yes, I know you have none.

I just said so. You are upset over the month of June for some reason.

 

[Tommy Tainant]

No, you stated an opinion. Far different than a fact.

No,, its a fact..

 

[dblack]

Because without the connection being homosexual cannot be considered an immutable trait, thus not eligible as a protected class.

Heh. .... ahh, more of the protected classes horseshit. That's the problem. Whether homosexuality is genetic or not should matter to no one outside homosexuals and scientists. It shouldn't be a political debate.

But it does, and is, only because we're taking a really idiotic approach to "civil rights" law. This is what identity politics creates.

In what way does pointing out something obvious denote an emotional reaction to it?

Does someone choose to be left-handed?

No.
and
society used to try to force left-handed kids to be righthanded.

With often negative results.

"
What are the effects of forcing a left-handed child to be right-handed?


The possible primary consequences of converting handedness are as follows: memory disorders (especially in the recall of learned material) disturbances in concentration (being easily tired) legasthenic problems or dyslexia (i.e. problems in reading and writing)"

"WE" aren't taking any such idiotic approach...Those who do are but a small and very vocal, sometimes violent, minority.

 

[Lesh]

I didn’t. But you just did.

The fuck you didn't you lying POS

I should look the other way at everyone who claims “they were born that way”?

Pediphiles claim the same thing, right?

 

[pknopp]

I have no idea how you have been harmed. Seems you can't spell it out either.

It was homosexuals who introduced the claim that they could not help themselves due to a genetic defect

We are merely dealing with nonsense that libs brought up

This article sheds some light on the now debunked article in the OP.

Uncovering the Christian Think Tanks Behind the Bogus Studies on Gay Parenting

Conservative evangelicals have been influencing politics for decades, in part by funding anti-gay propaganda and misconstruing legitimate research.

www.vice.com

In 2015 and 2016, however, a researcher named Paul Sullins published two studies that doubled down on Regnerus' claim that children of gay parents are more depressed. The latest was published last summer in a journal that requires authors to pay in order to be published. Both were debunked. Still, Regnerus wrote about Sullins' study favorably for the Witherspoon Institute's blog last June and Sullins appeared on an FRC panel around the same time, decrying the negative impact that gay marriage has had on society—citing his own study. The Christian right has created a ridiculous feedback loop by making their own studies to bolster the policy they back. The final step is aligning with politicians that can implement the legislation, which has never been a problem.

Its easy to see how Blaster got taken in by an article which is seemungly a scientific study. In reality it is a lot less than that.

Nobody is forcing anyone to do anything.

When have left-handed people demanded that the entire world celebrate and lionize them, to the point that they can do whatever lewd sex acts they can dream up on the streets?

Maybe gays are just confused. Some people might have a hard time learning their born sexual role like some other people have trouble learning math.

 

[occupied]

Thats a damn lie

We want to keep homo’s away from children

But gays are free to do disgusting things to other adult gays in their bedrooms

Bullshit. Given the history of homosexuality in America and the legal atrocities committed against them for decades on end I can't believe the right is only thinking of the children. If this were true you would apply equal scrutiny to the people you actually trust to dump your kids off on.

Recent studies show there is no gay gene. This debunks the theory that certain people are born that way.

“Born That Way” No More: The New Science of Sexual Orientation

A new study adds to a growing body of evidence demonstrating that the dominant narrative about sexual orientation—that it is genetically determined—simply cannot be true. Instead, the science shows that a person’s sexual orientation and choice of partners depends heavily on the development and expre

Of course it is a choice, a bad choice, but still a choice. Man has always been made to be with a woman, that is why they have the junk down there to make a baby with that woman. But it is Satan's will that men with men and women with women go against nature by doing illicit actions that can and will eventually cause all sorts of diseases. Yeah, i know Majic Johnson got Aides but i think he was whoring around with men and women.

An event somewhere in the lives of straight individuals, cause traumatic mental illness to said individual and then they turn away from the opposite sex....

Right. But the only reason it matters political is because of the bad laws - protected classes, identity politics, etc. That's at the heart of this. Otherwise, who gives a shit?
