ha yea, that's kinda lame
kinda like..
the rest of ur post
i mean this is just dandy and all but i don't see how u can read uronacid's post and think he's being completely serious and get so offended, and yea bla bla bla u said "i am not offended by anything you say to me". yea well the length of ur post makes it seem otherwise

DOES NOBODY KNOW BULLSHIT WHEN THEY READ IT?

this is SO right, he should have armed himself with a real defense on this matter, such as the sexuality of bugs
for the most part, i think it's a learned behavior.
and i don't understand a lot of people(not all) who "come out" and all the sudden act different, in a way that fits more into the gay stereotype of how gay people should act. that's extremely ridiculous to me, i don't see why a gay man would act all that much different than a straight man in normal day to day routines. i know gay guys who u wouldn't know they were gay...and that's how i think it should be. i'm not saying they should hide anything, i just don't think it needs to be thrown in everyones face that OMG THEY'RE GAY. if it's "not a big deal" then why the f**k act like it is. i think i'm off subject, but oh well, i think it's a learned behavior more than anything



Its a choice.
I don't see how the hell it can be determined at birth o_O *baby comes out of vagina in doctors hands* Oh here you go you have a new gay baby boy, congratulations.

I am not saying that, scientist are saying that.

Don't kill the messenger, but being gay is not really accepted in America, so of course they want to "fix" all gay people.



Alright, I'll stop acting Chinese, and tell you off. You are an ignorant bitch. Stop it already. Gay people should stop trying to press this "I'm born gay" issue, and just accept that they want to be gay. I personally could care less if you or anyone you know is a homosexual. In fact, I don't mind homosexuals at all. At the same time, when in Rome. You don't goto the crypts and tell them your a blood. You play along, and try your best to fit in so you don't get your ass kicked. The only point I'm trying to make in saying this is:

If your going to be some flamboyant homosexual with tight pants and a pink shirt then you should just accept the fact that society doesn't take well to people who are clearly standing out. Why do you think people hang together in groups? Because they have similar ideas, they compliment each other. A flamboyant homosexual with a bunch of jocks would just seem out of place because it is out of place. They aren't going to accept this queer kid with a lisp. It's not because he's gay, it's just because he's a fucking alien to them.

Jeez, if you gay people want to fit in and hang out and be accepted by everyone then don't act like women because you're not going to fit in. I say this is because it is the reason people are bring up this whole "determined at birth issue". They don't want to accept that they made the choice to be different. They just want to prove they were born this way so they blame it on something that's not their fault. If they do this, people will have to "accept" them or become "racist". Just fucking admit to wanting the dick whether it's subconscious or not.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program.

1.
My first point, The articles you're talking about clearly state that their research into homosexuality being a "birth defect" are no-where near complete or close to proving any theory anyone might have about sexual orientation being determined in the womb. The very last paragraph in the article even states this:

"There are plenty of gay men who are first-borns, many straight men with older brothers and many women whose fingers give no clue to their sexual orientation."

In this Breedlove (the doctor who did this research) practically says, "My research doesn't mean shit at this point so don't take it to seriously right now." He has no proof that sexual orientation is determined by the hormones.

Androgen (The hormone that he believes may be the cause of homosexuality.) causes abnormalities in finger growth among men and is exposed more and more to fetuses as the number of child births in a single womb increase. There is no accurate way to measure exactly how much of this hormone a fetus is exposed to. Therefore he uses there finger size and number of siblings from a womb to determine an estimate.

Essentially, The final paragraph says that he is no where near proving this theory even though he would like to think it's true and finds it very fascinating that it could be.

In conclusion to this point, just because research is being done doesn't mean that it's complete. Just because someone is testing a theory doesn't mean that that theory is true. Stop throwing it in our faces that research is being done. We know it's being done, and we're fairly certain that it's going to be a waste of time. Don't base your argument on this vague bit of research. Fuck your research you ignorant little girl.


2.
My second point, just because a few animals fuck doesn't mean that homosexuality is determined at birth. Have you seen a dog that only fucks male dogs? I highly doubt it. What makes you think it's not just a stupid horny animal that wants to have sex with another animal regardless of it's sex. Men do that in prison all the time. They just want to use their fuck sticks.

Also, I have yet to see a "gay" bug... Hold up... Wait, thank you google...


3.
Thirdly, I would like to know:
If you think homosexuality is determined in genes. How would this gene pass itself on if caused an individual to have no desire to reproduce?
