UNC Student: Despite Some Discrimination, There Are Many Advantages Associated With Gay Life

The superiority of gay sex to straight sex should be self-evident.

This is a joke, right? Because nobody walks in LA.

The superiority of gay sex to straight sex should be self-evident. If parts of your body could give you tremendous amounts of pleasure, then it'd only be logical for you to figure out how to use those parts.

Let me see if I have this right. As a straight male, who engages in intercourse with a female I am unable to "figure out how to use those parts."

[redbaiter]

why would anyone choose an identity that brings with it hate crimes and discrimination? But I've found so many good reasons to be gay.

There'll be hell to pay when your local GLAAD chapter reads this, kid. You don't choose to be gay, you just are.

[Phantom Lord]

Many males like pink

Yep, the straight ones. The gay ones like brown!

Sorry, couldn't resist.

[Common Tator]

Whenever people discuss gay rights, some anti-gay voice will argue that gays and lesbians don't deserve equal rights. This viewpoint begs the question -- why would anyone choose an identity that brings with it hate crimes and discrimination? But I've found so many good reasons to be gay.

Is this argument logical and valid? Lets see if it is.

Whenever people discuss rapists rights, some anti-rapist voice will argue that rapists and child molesters don't deserve equal rights. This viewpoint begs the question -- why would anyone choose an identity that brings with it hate crimes and discrimination? But I've found so many good reasons to be a rapist.

I'll bet the killer near washington D.C. has what he thinks are very good reasons for killing people.

If you want to judge the validity of an argument, then just change the names and identities and see if it is still a persuasive argument. Is it?

In a traditional heterosexual relationship, the man is the bill-payer, while the female plays a much more supportive role, like keeping the house.

I havent paid a bill in over 6 years. And my wife would be hard pressed to find the kitchen or the vaccum cleaner. I love my Rainbow!

[Phantom Lord]

Your comparrison is a fraud. Rapists and murderes are criminals. Two adults having consenting sex are not criminals.

[<1/1,000,000th%]

Gender freedom also benefits gays in relationships. In a traditional heterosexual relationship, the man is the bill-payer, while the female plays a much more supportive role, like keeping the house.

But in queer relationships, who does what is much less clear. Everything is open for negotiation. This leaves many opportunities for fairness and equality, benefiting everyone in the relationship.

What century was this written in?

Well Jeez I'm in now! Honey where do you keep your mascara?~}

Gays have better music. Disco and electronica

I had to stop reading right there.

Can someone name for me, just one right that gay people do not have that straight people do? And stick to "rights", not wants, desires, it would be nice if..., etc...

LOL! I also pay the bills at our house and my husband gets to mop and clean the toilets. Otherwise, I thought we were pretty traditional. Now I find we aren't!

[Phantom Lord]

Your both clearly closet homosexuals who have not dealt with the matter yet.

[Seruzawa]

There'll be hell to pay when your local GLAAD chapter reads this, kid. You don't choose to be gay, you just are.

Aha! You're forgetting something. Liberal "logic" changes with circumstances in order to support whatever nutzoid cause-of-the-moment. Libs will argue that being queer is genetically based and unalterable when it suits them and then turn around in the next breath and call it a choice also when it suits them. This is normal argument style for libs. Then when faced with real logic that shows them to be utterly wrong they descend into ad hominem attacks.

[HamiltonJay]

Gays have better music. Disco and electronica have deep roots in the gay club scene.

It's 2002, and this guy thinks Disco's the bomb... need we say more?

Gay bars are generally more entertaining than straight ones.

I'll give him this one, because it is way more entertaining to be in a gay/lesbian bar... no doubt, but not for the reasons he probably thinks.

[TXBubba]

ROFLMHO! Thanks I needed a good laugh this morning.

[FreeTally]

ROTFLMAO!!

That was too good.

[redbaiter]

This leaves many opportunities for fairness and equality, benefiting everyone in the relationship.

Note the wording here. Forgetting who is male and who is female is good for everyone in the the relationship, not both. Get it?
