Robustly heterosexual since early adolescence, unable to see that any love surpasses the love of women...

There is a difference between love and perversion.

What really irritates me is the new public perception, no thanks to the homosexual lobby, that two (platonic) male friends must be gay.

Once upon a time, two friends of the opposite sex were looked at askance. Now two friends of the same sex are looked at askance.

“What really irritates me is the new public perception, no thanks to the homosexual lobby, that two (platonic) male friends must be gay.”

The same is true for friendships between women. Women are usually more physically affectionate with friends— hugging, patting, linking arms, cheek-kissing, etc., but women friends today are much less likely to be like that, and the reason is that people are so much more likely to assume that they are lesbians. If sin is whatever separates us from each other, then the legitimization of homosexual relationships in the general culture is one great big sin.

Women friends can’t even live together anymore, unless they’re quite young (college age and a bit after) and therefore assumed to be poor. So women stay isolated and lonely in their houses after being widowed or divorced. It’s sad.

As you can see, this is a major peeve of mine as well.
