Thread: Homosexuality (Yes, Again)

The problem is that they're fruit flies, and not humans. There are animals more similar to us than fruit flies that can switch gender on a whim. It's kind of a stretch to try to imply any conclusions about human sexuality based on tiny-little-bug research. They only have four chromosomes, don't they?

However, the point is its a more direct look at a natural occurrence. While they may be able to change gender and there are other species that have been known to change gender, homosexuality in other animals and creatures is a known and witnessed fact. Its not only limited to humans. While they're only fruit flies, its scratching the surface of a subject that has been subject to intense debate, and shedding light that there is a strong possibility of homosexuality being biologically related in other species and other creatures on this planet, including humans.

I think its going to be hard to duplicate these results in humans were you just block homosexaul circut or whatever. Flies are much simpler then humans and pose unique differences.

I think those fruit flies made a choice to be a bunch of damn queers. It's an abomination.

Who cares if it's a choice or not? I really don't see why that matters. It's a freedom issue. All speech is a matter of choice, yet we have freedom of speech.

It is interesting to think about the biological aspects of things like that. I just get sick of people thinking that whether or not it is a choice or not means anything as far as people's rights are concerned.

Hey, we got UM to discuss homosexuality, maybe I can get a straight answer.

How does homosexuality threaten the american family?

lol, you do realize that he was answering sarcastically and probably will not post a serious position in this thread, right?

I was about to rag you big time about taking me seriously, but then you recanted after tkdyo pointed out the absurdity of your comment. I am not on the extreme right. I am conservative on economics and foreign policy. On pretty much everything else, I am about as liberal as it gets.

If you think I don't give straight answers, you are delusional. Homosexuality does not threaten the American family. I am all for having legal same sex marriages in every state and in every country. I am not against homosexuality. Plus, I think lesbian porn rocks.

I assumed that this:

was sarcastic. But he's on the extreme right and they're the ones that keep telling me that but can't give a reason. I want one.

While I'm interested in the research, I worry that the Vatican is going to use it next time it makes up new cardinal sins that god had made up long ago, but were only revealed last week.

huh?

I bet there are homosexuals IN the vatican hiding it.

we need to all come out, international come out day lol, then the world will finnaly STFU about homosexuality, im SOOOOOOOOO annoyed over the whole

'debate' wether is moral or immoral, ITS MORAL DAMMIT

sorry but these subjects get me angry cause of the ignorance and stupidity of society STILL to this damned day.

Does it really matter who i fall in love with? to me nope, male or female i LOVE human beings for who they are not what they are.

although i still don't believe that its a choice

i KNOW there has to be something else to it

these are my theories:

Genes
Development/Puberty
Hormonal imbalance
Chemical imbalance

In my case, i haven't got a clue what made me Bisexual but, i dont care, i love it!

I mean i would want to know what made me this way but im happy with it and one day we will know but for now, might as well just live and be happy

thank you for that, thats like comparing ameoba's to dolphins

OMG AMEOBAS CHANGE SEX SO DOLPHINS DO TOO!

(exaggerating)

but yea, some miniscule little fly being treated with drugs isn't gonna knock my socks off and tell me that my orientation was a choice or a chemical reaction to pheromones or something, theres GOT TO BE MORE to it.



And no, homosexuals and bisexuals don't pose any threat to the american family

in fact, the average american family is a threat to themselves by thinking in such terms, you see that youtube video someone posted saying homosexuals are a GREATER DANGER THEN TERRORISTS........

whoever posted that video IS A TERRORIST, spreading TERROR by scaring people away from people like me or whoever else isnt straight.
