Homosexual tendancies have been observed in other species. It's been found to be as prevalent in Bonobos and Dolphins as much as it is prevalent in Humans.

You mean like bonobo hair dressers? Wink

My understanding is that while sodomy (as in the male-on-male sex act) is quite common in nature -- males that cannot get females rape other males as a means of establishing dominance in many mammalian species -- homosexuality (as in exclusive same-sex intercourse) is quite, quite rare.  There are some cases (I remember hearing about gay penguins), but not so many.

For what it's worth, bonobos just screw anything and everything in every possible way.  They are wildly incestuous among other things.  I'm not sure that they should be our model of healthy living.  But again, bonobos seldom are homosexual -- rather, they're just very very randy.

Because God wanted you to be gay, not a girl. Duh.

I can truthfully state that this is the gayest thread on this forum.

The justification that gay people have for being gay is that God made them that way.  Well, God made obese people too yet everywhere you go there are fat people that are fighting that urge to eat ice cream.  There are God-created alcoholics struggling each day to stay away from beer.  There are people out there with learning disabilities that God gave them in school doing their best to undo what God did to them.  I'm a fat stupid alcoholic.  God created me that way so I should accept it.

Why are you comparing homosexuality to alcoholism or obesity? They're just not the same.

A better comparison would be to gender, or skin tone. Do you see black people struggling their whole lives to be white? (Michael Jackson does not count here).

The answer is no. That's the way they were born. They accept it as part of who they are, and others have no right to ridicule them.

The same applies to homosexuality.

Or are you a racist too?

Observation: even among some of the most ardent white racists, it's still considered beautiful to have a tan. Go figure.

I don't think so, therefore I'm probably not.

Well, if it is mutual I guess it is okay, but dont expect other males to be a stupid gay like you.

You can say that if you believe that to be true.  However, I'm just making a point that the one argument gays have about why they're gay isn't really a good argument.  But I'm not really arguing for or against them.  They should just come up with a better argument.  Like alcoholism and obsesity, homosexuality is partially genetic and partially choice.  You can choose to face the challenge provided to you, or you can just live with it.  Most people fight alcoholism and obesity because they're not healthy or socially accepted.  Homosexuality is not socially accepted (but that's changing of course) and whether or not you believe it's a way of life that is good for the species is a different debate for another day.

On a brighter note, if wasn't for homosexuality, we wouldn't have lesbians.

We dont need lesbians, but bisexual girls are okay, so that you can stay with more than one girl.

Melanin, Race and Homosexuality are all pretty unrelated, with the exception of one broad category -- Genetics. A lot of things are determined by your genes, so this is all kind of pointless. If you remind someone of somebody he doesn't like, you might be treated unfairly. Homosexuality at least has the advantage of being invisible, unless it is made otherwise. And hey, you've insulted people for their genes in this thread. If you say that gays are not "stupid" and that it is insulting to say so, how do you think that makes Retarded individuals feel?

What is wrong with that?

Eat better food, and fuck girls instead. I am sure that will improve your genes.

Nothing will improve your genes. You're stuck with the genes you have (short of radical invasive medical procedures which don't exist yet).

Now, given your 'go, women!' approach, why are you taking the name gay?

So why do we have a thread on this forum debating homosexuality?  It seems kinda screwed up that we would go from talking about cyborg mode to how black people are like homosexuals.

(but harems are one of those things that's only good in theory, in reality you have like 20 conspiring girls unloading wave after wave of PMS on you.)
I heard somewhere that groups of women that live together (harems, convents, etc) end up having their cycles together after many years.  I suppose that could be worse though; one big powderkeg...   Undecided
