this thread is going on for tooooo long. but it is a good discussion. grk, you say that the penises and vaginas are made to look for each other. i dont agree at all. only for the sake that my penis and the penises of many other guys look for other penises. just because some decide to use their body parts in a different way, does not mean it is not natural. having sex, without the desire to procreate, is also normal. many straight couples decide not to have children. many gay people, have the desire to have childrean as well. in fact, there is evidence that animals have homosexual tendencies as well. if thats not natural then i dont know what is.
you say that when a man loves another man, it is because he is attracted to him phsyically, and has the desire to have sex, and that is the basis of their love. again, i disagree. you must not have any exposure to the gay world have you? ive loved men, not because of their physicality. gay people are very open-minded and are very accepting of others, only because gay people have learned through the behaviors of straight people toward them. being harassed and seen as "unnatural," gay people look way beyond the surface, that is why there is much love in all GLBT cultures. so when you say that love is because of sex, then you have no idea whats coming out of your mouth.
"Fine, like i said, we cannot prevent any person from doing something that is not damaging to our society or other people..."
- as if the goal of gay marriage is to damage society, or create obstacles for straight people. the goal of gay marriage is to be part of society, not to exclude itself entirely. and gay marriage shouldnt be seen as a barrier between peoples.
and for Henry123
"And you sometimes wonder why some gays get the snot beaten out of them."
- dont u read the news.?? gay people are not beaten because they advanced themselves on other men. the gay people that have been beaten have been singled out by gangs of straight men, that because they were gay, they need to get beat. one gay man is attacked by straight men just by walking down the street. a gay guy is tied to a post and left to die, just because he is gay. when was the last time did you hear a headline that says "GAY GUY GETS BEAT BECAUSE HE FLIRTED WITH STRAIGHT MAN." gay bashings still occur in america. they are planned and pre-meditated, not because of an advance.and if sexaul advances is the reason why gay people get beat, then the same must be said for straight people, yet no one beats them up, now do they? ooo the contradictions, contradictions, contradictions.
sex does not always equal love, and vice versa. i personally dont need sex. just companionship and LOVE is all i need.
why is their such an assumption that gay people have sex continuously and that is wat they are all about? and promisciously? i live in the gay world, and from where i stand, sex is secondary to many things.
