If nothing else it becomes confusing calling Nadia "he".

In the real world (as opposed to the safety of the internet) it could even be illegal - e.g. in the workplace.

Do you perhaps think that equality is political correctness gone mad?

Yes, but we don't know that's ALL Coolio did/said. His convo in the DR with BB suggests there was much more,

Yes, it does. Prejudice is prejudgement. If you've prejudged homosexuality to be ethically wrong, you haven't thought about homosexuality and/or ethics long enough.

If you think homosexuality is right then you haven't thought about homosexuality or ethnics long enough.
You are being 'pre-judice'.

Homosexuality/bisexuality is a the condition of anything up to 10% of the population. It is not as if it is one in a million, and is thus not some sort of aberration.

There is no point in thinking it is "wrong". It just exists - in the same way as being black or white or brown or yellow.

You can either cope with it or you can't. Saying you think it's "wrong" merely demonstrates: you can't cope with it. Your problem and nobody else's I'm afraid.

The difference is I can back up my claims, and you can't. Ethics come down to harm...and gay and lesbian sex/relationships, as long as lubrication is involved, causes no harm to anything, living or not. I've already debunked your claims it correlates to depression. Plug on plug or socket on socket may gross you out, but it's as ethically neutral as plug on socket. If anything, it's ethically good because sex (tends to) spread happiness.

If you're so blurry on this issue, it makes me worry what other ethical issues you might be blurry on. Murder = wrong, theft = wrong, putting a penis in a consenting crack = not wrong.

Rubbish. There is a difference between pre-judging an act or practice and pre-judging a person

More nonsense - whats right for one person is wrong for another. Its a subjective thing and everyone is entitled to their own beliefs providing they do not effect those around them
