Human beings are sexual and hardly anyone on earth is genuinely 100% incapable of feeling anything sexual for the same sex (if you doubt that, check in with your local prison). Kinsey showed that half a century ago.
But when it comes down to it and people have complete freedom to meet and experience a wide variety of human beings, they have absolutely no control over what turns them on the most. Its not a choice. Cynthia Nixon likes men and women, likes sex with men and women. But she has learned from experience that sex and relationship with women is better for her, feels better, works better. She didn’t “choose” it, she experienced it and recognized and responded to her feelings, which she also did not choose.
I can’t believe this is in any way a discussion on any level
YOU DO NOT CHOOSE WHAT TURNS YOU ON.
You CANNOT choose what turns you on, any more than you can choose what flavor of ice cream you like the best. You eat all the flavors, and while you can CHOOSE to eat or not eat one or the other, the way it TASTES TO YOU is not within your power to control.
About as well, I imagine. It’ll take time but change is happening. The spate of new “OMG we must stop gay people marrying even though it’s already illegal in our state!” laws is a reaction to a perceived slow and inexorable movement towards public acceptance of homosexuality in general and gay marriage specifically. If they didn’t think there was a threat of their side losing ground they wouldn’t be bolstering their defenses.
No, you’re missing the point. There’s a basic design to nature, an elegance of complementarianism and reciprocity. Bees are drawn to flowers to pollinate them. Positively charged elements and negatively charged elements are attracted to each other. Without this, there would be no matter. Roots of plants seek out moisture. Water flows downhill and seeks its own level. Every action has an equal an opposite reaction. Thumbs work wonderfully in opposition to fingers. Some animals top into heat and attract mates, to continue the species. For a good part of the animal kingdom, mothers risk their lives to protect their young. High pressure fronts fill the relative void of low pressure areas. Men and women are similar, but not identical. You think this is an accident? Do you think that the major difference of our physiology is simply chance? That man and woman were not made to come together? Do you really think that when they do, that it is identical to to homosexuals coming together? I’m not saying that it may not be loving, and beautiful, but there a definite, obvious difference. Anyone who believes to the contrary will have to suffer being viewed as being blinded by ideology and is not to be taken seriously.
So, no, it’s not just “bias and [personal] taste”. It is was god has wrought. And if you’d like to leave God out of it, it is what nature has seen fit to make.
Man, that is just one giant mess of confused metaphors. How is water flowing to it’s own level similar to an opposable thumb? What does either have to do with heterosexual reproduction? What does “nature has seen fit to make” have to do with anything? Nature made queers, too - why does whatever point your trying to drive at only edify natural heterosex, but not equally natural homosex? What is this “definite, obvious difference” between the two kinds of relationships? How do you know, never (I presume) having been in a homosexual relationship, it even exists?

Whaddya want, adoration? Want straight people to joyously jump up and down in butt-less chaps with balloons wrapped around their heads?

Everyone has something different that makes their bunny jump. To each their own.
Not trying to say anything inappropriate here, but as a straight guy I’m perfectly happy with women wearing assless chaps. That would definitely get my bunny jumping. Just sayin…

Yeah, you abnormal wrong-wired gays- stop asking for special treatment! Just accept condescension and judgment with a smile and a swish.

Actually, to be honest, you shouldn’t look even a spavined gift horse in the mouth IMHO. Incremental change…baby steps. First get even grudging acceptance, THEN work on treating the spavin. I’m old enough to remember when interracial marriages/relationships were just starting to become accepted…grudgingly. When that meant you wouldn’t get the crap beaten out of you for dating or marrying a white girl (as I did), and hanging was right out…unlike previous generations where it wasn’t tolerated at all, or if it was it was heavily stigmatized. Today, the kids don’t even bat an eye seeing a black person or white person together (let alone a hispanic with a black or white or asian), so we’ve come a long way.
Baby steps are probably the best you can hope for, and he’s giving you those baby steps by conceding the overall point, if not giving unqualified acceptance.
Sure, absolutely! One of the greatest things about sex is variety.
Which, by the way, if you consider sticking your dick in and thrusting a bit to be the elegant height of your sexual repertoire, you are having boring sex. Seriously. And the second you decide to do something other than PIV, guess what! You’re having the same kind of sex homosexuals do!!
