I'm sorry about ignoring your points...I got side tracked whackin' the flies.

I should think that changing sexual orientation must be very difficult especially after a number of years, and I dont really think it would always be in the interests of people to change orientation, one way or the other.

I should think the psychiatric problems would be multiplied for homos or heteros

My main reason for becoming involved in these threads, is to try to illustrate how minorities can be manipulated by political ideologues, in this case "liberals"
The Homosexual marriage issue is a very good example of a minority being dragged kicking and screaming to claim "rights" which hardly any of them want. Our resident "heterosexual homosexual activist" Mr Peekstock being a typical example of the genre.

I'm amazed that you can joke about a disease which is showing a steady increase in the figures and continuing to decimate your community.....Are you really happy to allow these figures to climb, rather than address the reasons why they are so bad in comparison to heteros. Your remark about "virus ridden homosexual practice" may have been a joke, but it betrays a lamentable lack of understanding about the real extent of the problem and a lack of will in addressing it.

Honestly, does what I have written strike you as bigotry or hatred?
If it does, I'm sorry, I dont mean it as such.

Perhaps you would like to explain your position, or even comment on my linked figures on homosexual marriage take up rates...and why homosexual rights should be different to other sexual minorities.
