"You do not have to think about how people do or do not fuck, whatsoever. Why wouldl you want to, anyway?   

"But as a citizen, you DO have to think about the nature of civic rights under the law, and seek to make them equitable and fair, or you do a disservice to the rule of law.

I would remind you that "making people behave correctly" is not one of the basic freedoms outlined in our Declaration of Independence, nor in our Constitution." Amos

Perfectly said. If you want to run for office, Amos, I'll vote for you!

Someone said "Support for gay marriage seems somewhat thin here," Has it occurred to that person that perhaps the main reason why support for civil rights for all people is "thin" on this thread is because of that person's attitude? Talk about disgusting.

"When one is a youngster growing up it is natural to be a bit scared of the possibility of being "come on to" by an older male. Why? Well, because men are the aggressive parties in sexuality, physically speaking. So if you are smaller and weaker then you are naturally afraid that a bigger and stronger older male might use physical force on you against your will. You're afraid of being raped. This is the reason that both women and younger males fear a possible sexual assault by a male." Little Hawk

I'm sure you are right, LH, as far as you go. However, I suspect that another reason why males - young or not - fear contact with gay mals is that they are afraid they would have a physical response and fear that that would mean that they too must be gay.

Before the slapping upside my head begins, let me share a further thought here: In my opinion, perhaps the most potent aphrodisiac is becoming aware that someone else is sexually aroused.
