Rubang,
When you say "They're humans, they're normal, and they deserve equal rights" you realize that would mean we would have to allow everything, right (except for the normal part, as homosexuality isn't in the norm (statistically speaking, I mean))? So, you must mean something else that would justify this behavior. |
It is normal because it naturally occurs in humans and most other mammals.
It is acceptable because it doesn't harm anybody else.
If you're going to go by statistics, then blonde hair is abnormal. I think we should treat being gay as if it were just as boring as being blonde.
And yes, I think we should allow everything that doesn't harm people. I don't see how being born with a particular trait harms anybody. If you're born gay, straight, blonde, white, black, male, female, or anything in between, or a midget or a hermaphrodite or with any mental or physical deformity or disability in any way, I don't think that should affect any legal status in any way.

What doesn't "naturally" occur in most species? Certainly, murder, rape, and anything else do.
"I don't see how being born with a particular trait harms anybody". Born a murderer? Pedophile?
Finally, I could argue that you're being a "harm-o-phobe", but maybe I'll quite now ;)

Hahahhaa, nice.
I mean things that naturally occur that don't harm other people. But even if something's unnatural or supernatural, if it doesn't harm other people without their consent, I don't see why anybody else should care. Like if I wanted to have sex with an intelligent alien, who's gonna stop me?
