| warlord74 said: Your analogy between race and sexual orientation is invalid. A black man can not change his mind and become white nor can a female change her mind and become male. Those are genetic traits. Sexual activity is a choice and does change among some people. Their have been no studies to show that their is a gay gene. Thus calling someone a bigot or a homophobe over their view on sexual orientation is not valid and does not address the issue at hand. Why attack some one's character why not attack there argument. Here are links of people who once engaged in homo sexual activity and have now engage in hetro sexual activity. Even the associated press agreed not to use homophobe or biggot when it comes to people who are pro marriage between a man and a woman. http://www.conservapedia.com/Ex-homosexuals http://www.theatlanticwire.com/national/2012/11/ap-wont-let-you-call-homophobia-homophobia/59324/ |
that's not true though, people can change their gender. You're just saying that switching genders is more difficult than changing your sexual preference but I don't think that's a good reason and some would actually argue the opposite. Yes there are many people who have no trouble switching from one sexual orientation to the next, but that makes them bisexual and still isn't a reasonable expectation for all gay people that they can all switch like that.
