    Good on them, they just shouldn't be getting special tax breaks and control of a county while spewing this stuff.

    1. That wasn't evidence.

    2. Start here:

    https://theconversation.com/stop-calling-it-a-choice-biological-factors-drive-homosexuality-122764

    "... biologists have documented homosexual behavior in more than 450 species, arguing that same-sex behavior is not an unnatural choice, and may in fact play a vital role within populations."

    https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2019.02955/ful

    "The trait is clearly biological: it is widespread and has a strong additive genetic basis ..."

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/dawnst...ay-is-natural-say-scientists/?sh=5b5f0bc07fa7

    "The study by Andrea Ganna, lead author and European Molecular Biology Laboratory group leader at the Institute of Molecular Medicine in Finland, said the research reinforces the understanding that same-sex sexual behavior is simply “a natural part of our diversity as a species.” "

    There's a lot more where those came from, but I doubt you're really interested in the facts. Your purpose was hate based on misunderstanding, and that lack of knowledge is your choice.

    I stand by my comment: homosexuality cannot be taught, nor can it be "prayed away."

    I think we all missed the part where this, in any way, defies DeSantis?
    Are they going to host children and alcohol at drunken lewd drag shows?

    Seeing how Florida is home to over a million LGBTQ putting Florida in the top 4 states where most LGBTQ resides, its funny how you, Disney, and the leftist media are so vocal about this being in DeSantis face but the LGBTQ residents aren't.
    Weird, huh

    So you couldn't explain how this was in DeSantis face. (As You Claimed)
    You were just regurgitating leftist media trip.
    Thats pretty much what I thought

    Don't try to bait me.

    Uhh huh. Gay genes when they are convenient. Social construct when they are not.

    Welcome to the post modern waffle house.

    https://www.pbs.org/newshour/scienc...gene-sexuality-is-just-complex-study-confirms

    https://www.scientificamerican.com/...le-genetic-cause-of-same-sex-sexual-behavior/

    https://www.harvardmagazine.com/2019/08/there-s-still-no-gay-gene

    https://www.inverse.com/mind-body/the-science-of-sexuality

    Let me know when you guys sort that out.

    Then maybe you can address the philosophy of Foucault because that has nothing at all to do with the human genome, and is central to this neo Marxist critical theory BS.

    I don't think DeSantis is against any Gay Rights parade at Disney. He is just against people who have an extreme desire to sexually dance in front of children like perverts would want to do.

    Woke science is just atrocious.

    https://www.wired.com/story/how-earnest-research-into-gay-genetics-went-wrong/

    So: gay because genes, mental illness because society. For...reasons.

    Ohh crap. The science is a social construct!

    Nope. You're baiting me for an off-topic response in the hopes that you can ridicule me. My father used to do that, but he was much better at it than you are.

    If you want to debate a different topic, start your own thread.

    Are you concerned that speaking the truth might invite ridicule? That's certainly part of the issue here.

    I've completely addressed your rebuttal regarding the biological essentialism you've expressed here. That's how the people on the woke side would ridicule the opinion you just expressed. "What is a woman" is a question that demonstrates the essentialism nicely, but I can and did do it with the exact same research you presented.

    In case you didn't realize it, I just pointed out that you tried to tell me what other people believe using a false narrative. You didn't speak on behalf of some monolith of unified opinion. The entire point of deconstruction is that there's no true narrative. If you think that's ridicule, that's on you.

    The same person will look you in the eye and say: Gay isn't a choice. Gay is a spectrum. A female can have a penis and be attracted to a male with a penis and that's not Gay. Gay is a social construct.

    Until that nonsense gets figured out, ridicule will always be a concern because that can't all be true at the same time.

    Gays. Gays are OBSESSED with gays. Similar to how vegans are obsessed with vegans.

    No one else really cares until you shove it in their face.

    I never ever had a problem with gays or vegans until media repeatedly throw it in my face. Never happened in person as every gay or vegan I know keep their personal stuff to themselves. It is hollywood and mass media that wants to create clicks and views by over glamorizing it. At this juncture, I am tired of even hearing about it and just change the channel anytime something is even remotely woke because it has become old beaten down news.

    Although I guess you can argue that homosexual pedophilia is natural, too.

    Your beloved corporation doing crap to drum up profit isn't that profound. It's what they all do.

    Never will figure out why the left turned into corporate lackies.

    I have to disagree after seeing many, many, many gay people (or even just effeminate men) bullied and harassed without "shoving" anything. I've been threatened and physically assaulted just for looking like a "sissy."

    Wait a minute! Are you saying that it's a known fact that DeSantis is gay, and it was just ME that didn't know?

    I'm always the last one to know these things.... Researching gossip is not my strong suit.
