Since when did someone’s private, sexual life become fodder for public discourse?

Ain’t nobody’s business but his own.

He’s homosexual. It’s essentially required.

How about when the individual flaunts his “sexuality.”

That notion that homosexuality is a purely private act went away when the SCOTUS legalized sodomy in 2003 in “Lawrence v. Texas.” Now homosexuality is in the public’s face 24/7 in the news, Hollywood, television, in our schools, and attacking our religions.

It’s all of our business; you libertarians don’t think much, it seems; it’s all freedom without contemplation of consequences on children or society as a whole.

Except that the patient went to the local gay rag to complain and made it public

When the attention addict decides to trumpet it all over town he is the one providing said fodder.

I certainly wish the homosexuals would keep it to themselves

You were obviously someone who didn’t need a blood transfusion in the midst of the GRID/HIV/AIDS epidemic in this country, during the 1980s-and-’90s. There was no reliable method of screening blood supplies for the disease during those years. Thousands of completely innocent blood transfusion recipients were condemned to an early, horrendous death as the direct result of the refusal of the male homosexual community to assume full responsibility for its extraordinarily promiscuous, risky sexual behaviors. Homosexual activists’ predictions at that time, of a corresponding, imminent heterosexual HIV/AIDS plague, never materialized, but the public would never have known it because of the incredibly slick “diversionary tactics” exquisitely executed by organizations like “Gay Men’s Health Crisis,” among sympathetic others. You couldn’t possibly have imagined my fear, as a wife and mother already of two very young children during those days, of receiving contaminated blood as the result of my status as a “high-risk” pregnancy patient. Neither “marriage equality,” nor any other special societal designations, will “put lipstick on this pig,” “Tigerized,” because, as the English poet, John Donne, so eloquently wrote, in his “Meditation XVII”: “No man is an island, entire of itself...” or, more contemporarily, “It Takes a Village,” by former First Lady, Hillary Clinton. When someone else’s “bedroom business” affects the health and stability of the society in which my family and I live, then, it automatically becomes my business. I strongly suggest that all Americans read the latest “Centers for Disease Control and Prevention” HIV/AIDS statistics. They’re a real “eye-opener.”

It's not the priest, Gr. Coelho, who made this fodder for public discourse. It's the gay man who took it to the press. As of now, a week after the alleged incident, neither Fr. Coelho nor anybody else in the church has said one word about Mr. Plishko or his sex life.

It's Plishko who is running around demanding publicity. Really, I'm starting to consider the "right to privacy" to be more of a duty. Gays? Trannies? Horndogs? Sluts? Shut up about it, already.
