Sheep Experiments, ...to cure homosexuality Options

[BonneVache]

At the heart of these multi-million-dollar experiments, which are funded by taxpayers through the year 2008, is the goal of identifying a biological basis for homosexuality in sheep in an effort to “cure” homosexuality in humans. OHSU experimenter Charles Roselli is killing scores of sheep and cutting open the brains of rams he calls “male-oriented” (homosexual) in an attempt to find the hormonal mechanisms behind homosexual tendencies, so that they can subsequently be changed.

Well first off I'm against animal testing to begin with & homosexuality hasn't been considered a mental illness for quite some time and isn't in need of a 'cure'. Anyone seen the movie Hard Pill?

So yea, your thoughts on both killing sheep for testing and 'curing' homosexuality.

If homosexuality "WAS" a disease or some sort of mutated gene of some sort, they should find a cure. And if they did find a cure for gays... I would be highly impressed and I would have them cure my child if they were gay. I hate to seem ignorant or hateful towards gays, but I'm only one human with an opinion against homosexuality.

The reason that I don't believe homosexuality is a choice is this:

If it was a choice, that would mean that a straight or bi person who wished to be gay to decide then and there that he/she wanted to be gay, and then only have relationships with those of the same sex. It would mean forcing oneself to be attracted to the same sex.

If someone already felt attracted to the same sex, but didn't do so on purpose, then it couldn't possibly have been their choice because these feelings happened without their consent.

The way I see it is... people who choose to be gay only choose it because they're curious and they like it. A man knows his body more than he does a woman's... why? Because it's his body. So I'm sure he would treat another man's body the same way he would treat himself... which that's why men love being with men. Same with women. They know "how" to do things sexually. Plus I think they're just in sexual lust... not so much love as they claim. People always confuse love with lust.

First off I hate to sound rude, but I hope you never have a son or daughter who is homosexual because everything you wrote was infact horribly offensive & would it probably crush them to know that their parent would rather shove a pill down their throat instead of letting them be who they are. Even the way you worded your statement was just horrible, "A cure for gays". & yes you do seem ignorant in my opinion.

Plus I think they're just in sexual lust... not so much love as they claim. People always confuse love with lust.

Anyone could have lust for anyone else. It isn't limited to homosexuals to confuse love with lust, nor is it the standard in homosexual relationships. A heterosexual person could just as easy think they're in love with a person because how they look.

The way I see it is... people who choose to be gay only choose it because they're curious and they like it.

Doesn't everyone discover sexuality through curiosity?
