Urethra Franklin said:So many hetty relationships end in divorce.
So many hettys cheat on their partners (look at Clinton).
So many cases of child abuse within 'families' are reported. It's believed that 90% of paedophiles are heterosexual.
Heterosexuals are clearly the most unstable group of people.
Surely we can't let them continue?

Why is anyone taking this nonsense seriously?

shuamort said:I think that there'd be a lot of problems with any studies that based criminal/mental health behaviors and activities based on sexuality.
A couple reasons:
1)Except for in cases of sexual crimes (rape, molestation et al), sexuality is not noted as it is not germane.
2)Due to the "closet" as it were, statistics could be skewed.
3)Since sexuality isn't binary, it'd be a hard one to completely suss out. There are people that have slight bisexual leanings or are full-on bisexual.
4)We'd have to find correlation between the crime and the person's sexuality.

As an openly gay male, of course I support gay marriage. I'm not an activist for it, however, my activism is for the women's rights and pro choice movements. But what I don't understand is, why is it that heterosexuals, who shouldn't have to worry about being gay, want to take away our rights to marry, to be with our partners when they are in the hospital, etc. I don't care what the Bible, or what Allah says about homosexuality, that's no excuse to deny someone equal rights. Against gay marriage? By all means, don't have one! :roll:

Haha thanks, I'm somewhat socially conservative when it comes to homosexuality, because I'm not the rainbow-loving overly flaming type, though I come with some feminine traits :shock:
Not every gay person is as I described above. The media is pretty repsonsible for making us look like we're out to destroy all the heterosexuals (HEY! We could be the "Pink Panthers!"). We just ask for the same rights as others. Though it's not a considering factor when I vote (mostly church/state separation,women's rights, choice, health care, education, etc. And also the character of the candidate.)
I looooooooooove how Pat Robertson, Fat Jerry Falwell, Focus on the Family and FRC all accuse us of "indoctrinating children into the homosexual lifestyle". :rofl What LIFESTYLE? We're recruiting children?
To me, if you haven't been there, or experienced what we have been through, you have no right to judge us. Not all gays are drama queen Fab 5's.
Sorry, my rant of the day.

-I dont that, i just think gays should get over themselves and stop causing trouble and just be happy that your even ALLOWED to be gay!JustineCredible said:FOR YOU
Well, that's your opinion and you are certainly entitled to it. Although you offer no rational thought whatsoever. If you hadn't noticed, the argument which state gays would only "ruin marriage" or in some way "threaten" it are what ignites the retort that heterosexuals are doing a fine job of ruining marriage all on their own. With divorce rates at over 50%, allowing gays to enter into the same legal contract would in fact do NO harm, but rather might very well save an already dieing dinosaur.
Okay well that is not the reason why I do not like gays. I don't really care if it would "add" more divorce. Cause quite frankly a lot of "straight" people get divorces too.
Really? So, the ONLY reason why we outlaw something is because of it's being unnatural? YES
So, explain why you're arguing this on a COMPUTER! BECAUSE I WANT TO
Do you wear shoes, drive a car, fly in airplanes, write or read?
Guess what? NONE of those daily functions are what anyone arguing "naturals" would do. - Its the way of life
So, my advise for you is to get off your high horse, realize you are not the sole owner and opperator of the Earth and just deal with reality for a change.

You sound just like those who used to say: "You should know your place.." To the Lovings when all they wanted to do was get married. (BTW the Lovings were the interracial couple that initiated the Supreme Court case, Loving vs. Virginia, which challenged and CHANGED laws against interracial marriage.)
No, darling child, I will not settle for second class citizenship, nor should I have to, not by you or anyone else's idea. This is MY country, I was born here, I vote here, I served for it's freedoms...and your's. So if anything, you should be thanking me for upholding and protecting YOUR FREEDOM to disagree with me!
Courtneyx3 said:No I was born here too and I have just enough rights to say what I want and for you to thank me to for protecting YOUR right to even speak about being homosexual. Its the same arguement either way!
