Jacquerie,
In speaking to Flycatcher and Trisham, you speak of “homosexuals” as if there were such a thing. This implies a class, group, or species of human who carry a trait which sets them apart from other groups sufficiently enough to warrant a descriptive title. Yet, in all of the most recent studies of DNA we find no scientific support of anything producing this trait. So, in fact, scientific fact that is, there is no species known to be homosexual.
We do have humans pursuing homosexual behavior. This is an action, not a state of being. Trisham and Flycatcher both make this distinction.
Sincerely,
Daisy Mae
I do not believe that anyone is born "homosexual". Rather, I believe it is a form of mental illness caused by a traumatic event, or more likely, a series of traumatic events. Like many other forms of mental illness, it can be cured. It is a cruel thing to tell someone that they are born this way, and why some would prefer that to trying to help those so afflicted I do not understand.
