The problems with homosexuality

Mykonos · 12-23-2011, 01:52 PM

I'm actually starting to think that homosexuality is a form of evolution. Yep, I mean that.

Interesting! Can you elaborate? I'd be interested. Surely it wouldn't technically have any advantage as offspring cannot be produced.

Obviously, I don't care about offspring, I care about whether or not two people love each other, but I'm unsure about how it is evolutionary.

Well, I'm no biologist and even when I was studying it I sucked at evolution, so I couldn't explain it properly, but it's one of those minor theories that some insignificant expert put forward. Basically the argument is that if it is genetic, it could be a mutation instigated by modern challenges such as overpopulation. I'm not sure if it was actually a scientifically accurate theory (I can't recall if evolution can be ignited by social issues or not), but if it is I would possibly look into it a bit further.

I wish I was gay so I could cool it out in this thread and not go freaky mental.

You should be able to flip out over homophobia just as much as anyone else regardless or whether you're actually gay or not. The same way that I won't put up with racism or sexism even though I'm a white male that rarely gets it directed at him.

Racist jokes are never funny and racism should be taken seriously.

Are you actually trying to say that Above doesn't have a right to say that she's persecuted, as a gender minority? Loooool. And honestly, I hope you don't actually disagree, that religious people (who, in the US especially, are the majority) aren't oppressed. That's just laughable. Christians are the least oppressed peoples there are.

Although I don't like to take offence at insults not directed at me, I still get annoyed when someone makes a racist comment.

I think the fact that you're a racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, bigot invalidates everything you say.

I would think it is an aspect of natural selection, and a genetic disposition. Like any meme, the necessity of procreation is not a deciding factor in which way the meme develops.

Above, you are racistist, that invalidates everything you say...
