I am going to start a new thread:
WWYD if your child was ugly

Except most people have gotten past that and there has been very little actual flaming and name calling in this thread. Go ahead and make a parody and see what happens.

IMHO gayness is an unnatural genetic defect in the most biologically possible sense. Gay people can't reproduce. Period. Thus, if all of the hetero people suddenly vanished, humanity would be dead as a species. This is the definition of unnatural.

That said, I don't believe gay people should be limited when it comes to marriage. Child-rearing, however, is another story. Straight children should not be raised by gay couples. As there is no definitive test for gayness yet, I don't think that gays should be allowed to raise kids. Other than that, they can do whatever they want as far as I'm concerned.

/flamesuit

What the fuck? Gay people can't reproduce? Do their respective penises and vaginas fall off once they realize they're gay? Just because gay people choose not to reproduce doesn't mean they can't. How many thousands of children do you think have been born from relationships where the father repressed his true feelings. Do you know how many married men with children solicit gay sex? Your post is mind-fuck retarded and unbelievable.

And why shouldn't straight children be raised by gay people? Being gay is not something you will pick up from being raised in a gay environment. If that were true I'd be a devout catholic and go to church every sunday.. when I'm anything but.

People can turn gay then.. as I said before.

Semantics.

People do NOT turn gay.. they reach a point where they cannot lie to themselves any longer, they cannot hold back the feelings they already had.

Hmmm. So living the lie, includes getting married and having children?

Uh yeah... most definetly.

Society has made being gay SO evil and SO terrible that people will spend their entire lives miserable and closeted for fear of being belittled or abused.

Fuck.. read the responses about parents wanting to disown/drown/kill their children if they were gay and keep a straight face while you re-ask me the same question.

Not really. Where do you see gay clubs/bars back in the old days. They are getting more common, but not completely socially accepted yet.

Huh? What were you not really-ing there?

The clubs were underground. Unless you go back to Rome.

Bathhouses have existed for centuries.

I'm not suggesting things aren't getting better but they're nowhere near a comfortable level for the majority of gay people to come out of hiding.

True. But slowly being accepted. If you compare underground and separate clubs.

More common, or less underground? Since the advent of gay bars/clubs there have been slews of seemingly straight men, complete with wives and families of their own, sneaking out under the premise of working long hours to live as they actually are.

Religious, skin color were brought in as compare and contrast to being gay, you don't called this a flame bait thread?

I am not going to make a parody thread, I am just contrasting you how this thread is pointless. All you get are people chiming in saying I will support whatever their child is, and those are the only correct answers. So what exactly is the point of this thread?

Both I guess. More people are breaking free of their lie. Thus no need for underground clubs.

Most phrase it as "coming out of the closet", with respect to iamwiz's post. People can come to the realization/acceptance that they're gay. But it doesn't mean they chose that predisposition.

No my friend, not become gay. They always were gay. Every single gay person I've talked to be it online or off, they've always said they knew from early on in their life that something was different.

Like everyone else has stated. When the world perceives you as a mistake or a bad person for being gay, is it all that fun to say, "HAI EVERYBODY, IMMMMMMMMMM GAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

No, right? Thus they live a closeted life in which they marry, even have kids and then realize that they can no longer live that life and come out.

Nobody just wakes up one day and says, "Wow, today is a good day to become gay, I feel like being gay today!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

That doesn't happen!

Can gay people just wake up one day and say, "Wow, I'm tired of being ridiculed. I'm straight from now on!"

No they cannot! Same logic here!!!

Polls are in, apparently most people, having learned their child was gay, would create really fucking huge quote trees. Who knew?

Why? Because people use it against them to hold them down, that's why. Because this is fucking America, where everyone's supposed to get a fair shake, because we're all created equally. Last I checked, we didn't have people passing laws specifically to keep anybody else from getting married.

Living in American doesn't guarantee you a fair shake and obviously we're all not created equally as per many of the posts here. If we were, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Isn't that what the USA is supposed to be about? Why do you say it doesn't guarantee you a fair shake?
I guess some of us just care more about things like the ideals the country was founded upon than others.

You can't tell from a job application if someone is gay. You can't tell from an interview if someone is gay...you can have questions or have an inclination but you can't tell unless the information is divulged. You can't tell when you seat someone at a restaurant if someone is gay...again unless the information is divulged. With regards to race, creed, color, sex, national origin, et al...these are all things that can be surmised from a job application, etc. Therefore, an employer or business-owner can discriminate at leisure without the minorities having adequate protections. Again, how you take and how you give it in the bedroom shouldn't give you status protection.

So? Are you telling me you don't believe gays are discriminated against?
