Bullshit, Don...Mudcat is the ONLY forum, or website I have posted on.

"The idea that a gay man might marry and even have children before he takes up with a male lover does not mean that he "decided" to be gay. He may have been gay all along, but fighting his natural inclinations."

What a twist of spinning!...If he was having sex with a woman, bearing children, and raising them, is a attribute of being heterosexual...unless YOU decide he 'changed his mind'...which of course, blows your argument out of the water that, 'they can't change'.

Good Lord, keep track of which side of your mouth your talking out of...unless, of course, you are using a different orifice!

see, that's the whole gist of politicizing, using opinions rather than fact, and playing on people's emotions....they'll use whatever bullshit serves their immediate purpose!...Which also fits Don's profile of supporting non-facts, speculations, and lies to put over whatever crap he's pushing.

Ver-r-r-ry interesting, Jeri…….

Word for word, which means either that Goofus is spreading his propaganda over other web sites as well as Mudcat – or that, among other things, he is a plagiarist.

The idea that a gay man might marry and even have children before he takes up with a male lover does not mean that he "decided" to be gay. He may have been gay all along, but fighting his natural inclinations. In other words, in denial. I know a gay man (the one in our writers' group) who was married to a woman, but the two of them were never really happy. She didn't know what the problem was until he told her straight out (having come to terms with his own urges) that he was gay and was trying not to be—and it wasn't working. She gave him a divorce, and a little while later, he moved in with the man he's living with now (they were married a few months ago, right after Washington State legalized gay marriage). Now? No problem! He's still friends with his ex-wife, so no sweat. She's happy that he's happy, and she's going her own way. Fortunately the split came before they had children.

I can't help but think about young Matthew Shepard, who was taken out on a country road, tied to a fence, then tortured and pistol-whipped. His assailants left him simply hanging there, with a fractured skull and severe brain damage. Many hours later someone found him and took him to a hospital where he died without ever regaining consciousness.

Why?

Because he was gay.

So other than being gay, what had he done to deserve that kind of fate?

Nothing!

That's the result of the kind of irrational hatred that a couple of people on this thread are spewing.

I did find this on Yahoo:

"By the way, all of those who think that I have no experience with this, and that I'm just spouting from no experience with this issue, you should know that my father CHOSE a homosexual lifestyle after he had 6 children with my mother.

BTW, that's not the entire piece.

I'm going to read the whole "people choose to be gay" thing as meaning the person asserting so made a choice to be straight, meaning they could've been gay or bisexual. Not everyone is inclined in both directions. I don't think there's anything wrong with people who DO have the option to decide, but it's not something everyone has.

Do you have evidence (research) to show homosexuality is behavioral versus biological (not limited to genetic), gfs? If so, I have not seen the research put forward for consideration.

If not, would it not be an "over-reach" to classify if as behavior based. A few cases involving personal choice hardly makes a sufficient case to make that leap (most logical thinkers have a higher standard of proof than that).

I am not doubting your conviction. However, as you make a statement, it is your task to show others how it so, or at least on what basis you were so convinced of such a conviction. If one cause has not been determined, this does not give another one more validity because of that.

"Not to get to personal, but to squash any type of statement about my father already being gay, I'll explain this. He was molested when he was a child by his father and uncle. He learned how to deal withthe shame and pain of this act by storing it inside and never talking about it. This, undoubtedly, led to prolonged psychological effects that plagued him and eventually chose him to choose his lifestyle."

"Chimpanzees are humans closest living relatives.  They have been on a separate evolutionary path from humans for only 6-7 million years.  Subsequently, they still share most of the human genes... differing by only 1-2% in terms of DNA sequences. "

Unlike some human males, in some countries, chimpanzees don't "masterbate in front of their computers while watching pornography". Given ths choice, it is unlikely they would do so either.

The reason clearly must be in the 1-2 percent of the genes, or possibly better upbringing and values than their human counterparts?

Goofus is apparently trying to make it sound like I have gay orgies at my apartment. But how can that be, when I'm always out picking up girls in bars, knocking them up, and dumping them? And my wife says nothing about this!??

Speaking of genetic based, versus hormonal influences, a funny thing happened when you directed me to check out the archives('Prop 8')...I noticed while you were 'celebrating the fact' that you were 'so hip', that you had all your homosexual buddies over for dinner,(and I brought this up to you before)...but something jumped out, anew....(I should cut and paste this)....I suspect why you insist on the 'gene' theory....and most always you make a point that the woman carries that 'GENE'....and, you are pretty famous for never admitting a flaw, no matter how much it glares out...OK..back to the point...I've always maintained that the influences of the hormones while the baby is being formed, from a stressed mother(being as they share the same nervous system, in the formative stages) had a greater influence, than a simple gene(and THAT is BACKED up by studies)......maybe you don't want to think of yourself as the cause of that stress, because, in the names you mentioned, as dinner guests, that night, I noticed you included your son's name...and no women were mentioned as present.

Sorry, Goofup, but you've once again got the wrong end of the stick. The "dirty little secret" is not that same-sex orientation is "dirty," but that you denying the likely genetic base of sexual orientation because a very close relative of yours (according to you) "decided" to be gay and deserted the family to run off with his male lover is pretty limp. If there is a genetic basis for sexual orientation, then your own orientation can appear pretty precarious, so you go into severe denial. Which includes trying to convince yourself that there is nothing to the idea of sexual orientation being genetics based. Claiming that sexual orientation is just a matter of choice is simply you whistling in the dark, AND to take a political or social activist position on that basis is pretty damned sleazy. THAT's the dirty little secret.

I've met flaming homophobes before, and every damned one of them has been a closet gay—in the closet to themselves, even though their problem was patently obvious to everyone else.

"I'm a supporter of gay rights.  And not a closet supporter either.  From the time I was a kid, I have never been able to understand attacks upon the gay community.  There are so many qualities that make up a human being... by the time I get through with all the things that I really admire about people, what they do with their private parts is probably so low on the list that it is irrelevant".  ~Paul Newman
