facinating how homosexuals fear the mere PERCEPTION of a cure.
The existence of such a cure would mean that they would no possible excuse to engage in the activity. Furthermore, there would no reason that society should not outlaw homosexual behavior in the same manner it does with prostitution, bigamy, etc.
There would be no possible support for special group rights and subsequent legal bullying, etc.
The more I think about it, the more I think we should start a funding charity to support this research under the banner of an HIV/AIDS cure.

Parents already give their children growth hormone to ensure they have greater highr than average. Incorrect. You can't get growth hormone without a doctor's Rx(and that stuff isn't cheap, either)

Navratilova defended the right of sheep to be gay. What next? Sheep have the right to a faaabulous wardrobe and track lighting?

I have a news flash for the gay and lesbian community. The sheep program is not about homophobia it is about simple economics. If the ram refuse to breed the ewes there will be a loss of the product ( lambs)from which sheep farmers make their living.

So, if I support research for a cure for cancer, does that make me cancerphobic?

The March of Dimes, and others, want to prevent birth defects through abortion.
Here is a possible solution to a problem (that some champion as a lifestyle CHOICE) and we are told that "science shouldn't go there".
They needn't fear being without fresh meat. They'd still recruit.

The Sex Positive agenda believes in hedonism. They seek to end all moral judgements over sexual pairings regardless of age, sex, relation, marital status, number, or species of partner(s).
They seek to see everyone sexually active at every age and do not believe in a concept of age appropriate activity.
Reich, Kinsey, and feminists all preached this new world order.

I wonder when diabetes or schizophrenia will just become alternate lifestyle choices.

Scientist find ways to cure homosexuality.....designer shoes stocks down 50% on the news.
To: Mount Athos
We are responding to this the wrong way. We ought to support this research... and presto, within our lifetimes the entire "homosexual debate" will disappear. By definition the homos will not reproduce much and the heteros will of course tend to prefer their own orientation. Problem solved with minimal conflict.

Oof.... BAD pun alert! You are hereby sentenced to being sucked in backwards into a Peterbilt diesel intake manifold (turbocharged). What comes out the tailpipe will be ground into protein meal and used to feed the poor.

Its a behavioral choice, not a trait that can be bred out. Natural selection would have done so long ago. Three cheers!, One would have to believe that being homosexual is a DNA thing for the article to be anything more than some sheep S-it.

Yeah. And as far as a rams "right" to be a switch-hitter goes, I have the right to turn rams that won't breed into ground meat. And the economics of sheep farming are such that I pretty much have a duty to "cash in" a ram who doesn't breed ewes. That's what rams are for, on a farm.
I have to be all crass and everything, but sheep farms ain't cruise ships.

I agree that natural selection would keep homosexuality a genetic rarity. The only way I can think of to turn it into a common trait is to put social pressure them to act straight, marry, and have kids. Unfortunately most cultures have been doing this since recorded history.
