:nono: no stu if your ring fingers are bigger then you have typically male hands!!!

I really don't think being gay is genetic. Unless you just mean you're "made" gay whilst in the womb, then yeah you're right.

Stu 23-11-2010 09:58 PM

My bad, I worded it wrong. It's the big index finger I have. Actually ... I didn't word it wrong at all. Far worse in fact. I looked at the pictures, looked at the left and right explanation and got my left and right mixed up. It's barely bigger though. At a quick glance they are at about the same length.

The leather pants cut off the blood/oxygen path to my brain.

It's far more likely to be in the genes than your bizarre scientific explanation. How can you be 'made gay' in the womb? Does Liza Minelli shrink herself down and swim up to you for a quick chat or something?

Personally I'm not sure. Could be part genetic, part social settings. One or both for each individual person. Who knows.

Something simply has gone wrong, technically. Being gay isn't inherited like hair colour. That's like saying being blind is inherited.

I don't wanna describe being gay as a mistake... but something obviously would have gone wrong. :(

Stu 23-11-2010 10:15 PM

So 'something just goes wrong' inside the womb? And that makes the child - twelve or thirteen years late - realize he would much rather stick his cock up another mans ass?

You cannot compare being gay to something like blindness or any medical ailment that carries an inherent health risk. It's certainly an abnormality in humans but that's about it. Science doesn't have a concious. Your body doesn't decide it's going to 'do something wrong' and be gay for a bit.

Something just decides to go a bit ... different. That's the word I would use. Not wrong.

_Seth 23-11-2010 10:36 PM

Whatever, I just think you're born gay.

I just wonder why the IMAGE of a certain gender can turn someone on. I think that needs to be figured out first.

I don't think it needs to be figured out. Thousands of explanations have been penned in thousands of books you have simply never read or heard of.

It's pretty simple really. It's evolutionary. Over the course of a length of time too obscene for us to even comprehend chemicals have worked to form male brains that are predominantly attracted to women, and female brains that are predominantly attracted to men as an incentive for us to have a fuck and continue on the species.

All the people who are going on about adopting and still being able to have biological children are sort of assuming their son or daughter would want a child. You're going on like every gay couple automatically has a child or something. I don't know the % but it's not that high is it? And I am not that clued up on this by the way so you can correct me if I'm wrong.

But that IS homophobic. It's a shame that you feel that way.

Nothing homophobic about it, stop being so bloody stupid.

Yeah but from what I've heard from gay people, they didn't choose to be gay...it just happened to be there.

So how do you explain it? if it's not genetics, what is it considering it is something you cannot control?

Thomas C likes the cock, everyone.

Just in case he didn't already make you realize.

I agree. People just need to replace 'gay' with 'black' for a clearer understanding of what is and what isn't homophibic.

Compare:

"I'm not homophobic, but I wouldn't want my son/daughter to be gay or bring a gay person home"

and

"I'm not a racist, but I would not want my son/daughter to be black or bring a black person home"

Dating a black person does not make you different though, and whether you like it or not, being gay does make you different to the majority of people.

Parents do not want their kids to be different in any way as it (wrongly) leaves them open to harrasment, bullying and prejudice, therefore, when people say they would be disappointed if their child was gay, I don't think it's because of an aversion to gays, but a worry that your child may be singlesd out and bullied, something no parent wants for their kid!

And I am not just talking about being gay here; I've seen how horrible kids can be. They will ridicule the slightest little thing, from ginger hair to disability.

To me though, health is wealth and I am just grateful I have two healthy kids and will love them no matter what they turn out to be :)

Yes it does! Being black makes you a minority, just like a gay person. What rubbish!

People who are in interracial marriages/relationships have their lives put in danger all the time.

The doesn't even make sense. False equivalency.

Hmm.. Seems you have misunderstood my point..

I wasn't talking about being black; I was comparing your child bringing home a black person to bringing home their gay lover.

Anyway.. just to reiterate my main point; A parent feeling disappointement/worry/apprehension on finding out their child is gay is normal, NOT homophobic.

(A parent not wanting their child to have a black partner is racist)

That's all :)

bearing in mind only around 1.5% of the population turns out gay it is not really much of an issue.

I know it's not a choice. I never even hinted to it being one. I just don't think it's inherrited, something wrong just simply happens.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - that statistic is a crock of sh!t. There are WAY more gay/bi people FFS. A lot probably didn't want to say or they went to the straightest of cities etc. I'd say a good 15% are.
