Huh? Ask your husband if he has ever masturbated. Ask your priest too. Any guy that says that he hasn't is either lying or never went through puberty. You are basically saying that 99.9999% of the male population has had a homosexual experience.
I am a man. Homosexuality and autosexuality are both dysfunctional and damaging. Society stopped teaching that sometime around the 1960s, so we have statistics similar to but not as bad as the one you created above. The difference between us is that you think such activities are perfectly fine and healthy and I think they are gross, pointless, and emotionally damaging.
BTW, when I was in high-school (an all-boys school) in the 1980s, we had one kid who admitted that he masturbated--he was encouraged by one of our "theology" professors who said he thought masturbation was "beautiful." From that moment on, both the student and the teacher were utterly ostricized. I reckon that still happens among most boys.
This kind of thinking will never be in power as people would rather live under a socialist government than a theocracy.
You've created a false dichotomy, but whatever. Speak for yourself.
The only thing that keeps people voting for the democrats is their fear of the theocons. Remove the theocons from the GOP and democratic party dies.
Wrong. Hate to tell you this, but without religious conservatives, the GOP would be like the Conservative Party in the UK--worse, actually, because they'd have a working base of about 15% of the electorate. If what you said were true, the Libertarian party would be able to pull more than their perennial 1.6% of the vote.
