There are two things I will never understand in the homosexual threads here at FR. The first is the inability of homosexuals and their adherents to understand that for most men the homosexual act is abhorent. The second is the inevitable slide into defenders of homosexuality alluding to their antagonists as homosexuals. Interesting.

At the risk of being called a homosexual or an adherent (whatever that is), I must ask how you came to the conclusion that the H+A are unable to understand a heterosexual's abhorrence. Is it that by merely disagreeing with your view of homosexuals the H+A are being intolerant and not considering your feelings? I hope the "never understand" lament is hyperbole. If it isn't, then I would wonder why you are attracted to these threads. And I am not engaging in the second "thing you will never understand," here.

Why is all this "interesting" to you?

LOL, I could care less. I made two observations and you are proof of the rule. In fact, it's the adverse. I don't feel constrained to tolerate or aquiesce to that which I disagree with. Being America, the same holds true for anybody else.

I hope the "never understand" lament is hyperbole.

Hope springs eternal!

:-}

Of course not.

Very funny. Did you also tell her about your mouth/butt cleanliness theory?

On second thought, probably a bad idea.

jwalsh07 says:   "The second is the inevitable slide [whereby] defenders of homosexuality allud[e] to their antagonists as homosexuals."

Off-hand, I can think of three possible reasons:   First, they may be hoping that it might be true, and that they may be the "lucky" beneficiary of that discovery. Second, they justify their own miserable condition by dragging as many people down to their level as possible. (Even if it's only in their own mind.) Third, they know that most decent people find the accusation so abhorrent, that they're hoping that such a charge would make some retreat from the fray.

Indeed. With respect to the whole line of (il)logic about "gay rights," being forced to respect them, etc., I recall a T-shirt I gave to my cousin as a gag Christmas present.

It said, "Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand."

'Nuff said.

Be well...

What lesbians does not involve the dirtiest area of the human body - the anus.

And that is why gay sexual practices spread nasty diseases much more than lesbian sexual practices do.

Also, gay-on-gay violent crime is, I believe, a lot higher than lesbian-on-lesbian crime. It's hard to get a handle on this though, since as a general rule, media coverage of spectacularly violent, gruesome, dramatic crimes committed by gays is forbidden. Very few newspapers and TV networks are willing to break this sacred taboo.

Also, I haven't heard about lesbians raping children yet (even if the media may be underreporting, it's hard to imagine that happening on the scale of male pedophilia.)

I would say that lesbianism evokes less disgust than homosexuality precisely because it does not evolve the dirtiest area of the human body. Had homosexuals restricted themselves to mutual masturbation, most people would find their practices less abhorrent.

Isn't it fascinating that so many of the homsexual haters are anal retentive?

Interesting choice of screen names.
