Yeah, the last time I porked a chic I remember feeling some force taking control of my body and moving my penis into the love canal.

Absolutely no free will was used there.

Why are they "lessor"?

I would be willing to bet that there are many gays out there that have made a far greater contribution to society then you could ever dream of doing. If they can contribute to society better then you, where does that place you on the worthyness scale.

Is "lessor" a word?

It's not about what you do, it's about why. Sex is always a choice.
Why do you have sex with females?

It wouldn't bother me if a service catered to homosexuals only, so I don't see the problem. A private company should have the right to do business with whoever they want and not do business with whoever they want. It's not like eHarmony is eliminating the right of homosexuals to use dating services. They're just not supporting them. That's not a violation of rights, it's a personal preference.

Wow, the level of hate is strong in this thread. I don't think the lawsuit is justified, along with half of the posts in this thread.

Because they're curvy, smooth to touch, smell good, and have soft squishy parts in all the right places. :p

lmao, so you're saying all landlords are gay? :Q

At least the 'lessor humans' among you can use words properly, it usually doesn't help your argument if you're a ****** idiot in your reply ;)

In other words, because you find females attractive. It's no more complicated and just as simple as that.

Also, why do all threads involving homosexuality turn into an expose of what your opinion on the subject is..?

In response to the OP, this lawsuit is bullsh!t plain and simple. Litigious asshats like this only further promote misunderstanding and annoyance with a major part of the population who just want to be left alone.

Do you think you should receive minority status because of the type of people you are attracted to? The type of women I'm attracted to are definitely not what the majority are. Should I receive something special because of it?

No, we would just like the rights already accorded to the majority.

Pretty much. I don't think the lawsuit is justified, but my opinion rarely matches California's.

The fact that people keep bringing up that eHarmony is a private business is irrelevant. Private businesses that open themselves to the public ("places of public accommodation" like retail stores) usually are not allowed to discriminate based on membership in a protected class. It sounds like sexual orientation is a protected class in California. The fact that might protect eHarmony is that they are selective in who they allow to join - they reject straight people too. Much like a private golf course can exclude blacks if they are exclusive in their membership, that may allow eHarmony to discriminate against homosexuals. But this is California...

Why do you have sex with females?

because my sole purpose on this planet on a genetic level is for me to proliferate my dna throughout the cosmos. This involves engaging in as many female sexual encounters as possible. I don't believe I was given a choice for this...This is why I've always been attracted to females, my brain and dna are hardwired for this, they are in cahoots...they drive my actions so that I can have the most opportunities to successfully reproduce. I think thousands of years of evolution have honed this instinct so well that I can decide if a female will make a proper mate with just a simple glance.

I'm going to go with, the purpose of life is continued propogration of the species for $1000 Alec. And unless there is one helluva evolutionary change soon, no amount of time that inspector jihad and his boyfriend spend alone in the bedroom will result in an additional homo sapien coming out of there.

So you only have sex for reproductive purposes and never just for pleasure then?

I'll take grasping at straws for $1000, Alex.
The answer is: The Daily Double.

Bullsh1t. Plain and simple.
You do not have sex with females to procreate.
Unless you have had or attempted to have a child every time you have ever had sex?
No? I thought not.
You have sex with women because:

A: It feels good
B: You are attracted to women - Because they're curvy, smooth to touch, smell good, and have soft squishy parts in all the right places.

If I am wrong then I am wrong, but I don't think I am.

A homosexual can no more "choose" who he is attracted to than you can.

Procreation has nothing to do with it.

I didn't ask why does sex exist.
I ask why do you have sex with females...lol.
Would you still have sex if you could not have children, or she could not?
Hell from what I hear that is a plus :p
