    And I wonder why you insist upon using the term "homo". It illustrates your bias (rather vividly) where it concerns "support for same-sex marriage".

    And of course, one could hardly trust your opinion as the sole perspective they require to reach a proper determination on the related matters.

    What is clear and real about it is, its running away from the subject of homo abnormality, and diverting into the subject of other abnormalities. Not even a nice try.

    You aren't expressing anything serious or reasonable. This reminds me of some of the arguments I witnessed and participated in during my years at high school.

    How does the term "homo" illustrate "bias" ? What a statement of utter nonsense, that has no possible explanation.

    There's plenty of "abnormal" things out there... Red hair, left-handedness, glasses... Care to explain why abnormal/diversity = bad?

    Your posts contain absolutely no substance lol

    And yes we are in denial of what you're saying. Because that's what a smart person does when they are faced with BS - we reject and correct.

    Red hair and left-handedness are not abnormal. They are simply unusual because they are less prevalent than right handedness and other hair colors. That's just a matter of numbers. But homosexuality is contrary to nature's design. Hence the description > ABNORMAL.

    Gee what a substance-laden post. I'm simply awed. :roll: :giggle:

    Do me a favour.

    Define what the word "normal" (or "abnormal") means to you.

    Natural and normal aren't the same thing FYI. And homosexuality is found in nature, so how is it contrary to its "design"?

    And, I think it is just fine for me to disagree with the above.

    Look up the definition of the term.

    On the internet, people can pretend to be 'whatever'.

    I love how people who obviously and openly harbour animus towards gay people pretend like they don't know "homo" has offensive connotations. Truly hilarious.

    Why do you guys even bother? The time for debate has passed; right now, the only interesting things coming from this thread are good opportunities to point and laugh.

    And those people often also pretend that they don't know the actual meaning of the word "homophobia". :) (It makes me chuckle too.)

    I'll let the people who wrote the dictionary where you saw that "definition" (and who weren't even born when I spoke that word in college many times in my psychology class) know of my definition >> simply a contraction of the word homosexual. Nothing more or less. If they can't handle that....that's THEIR problem.

    At yourselves, if it wasn't really such a sad thing. I feel especially bad for the families of people afflicted with homosexuality. Especially the parents.

    There is no such word. Nor is there any such word as "gay" either, except to mean happy. Just because a bunch of strange people come along who band themselves together, thereby giving themselves the courage to speak out on what they all know is ridiculous, and invent words to bolster their false concepts, doesn't make that set of letters a "word".

    Also a rainbow still has 2 meanings. 1) a colorful display in the sky after a rain 2) the logo of the US Army 42nd Infantry Division, highly awarded in World War I, and my unit when I was in the army. Other than that, I know of no significance regarding rainbows. Occasionally the rainbow was used by some of my counterculture (hippie) friends when I was one of them back in the 60s, and we countered an awful lot of pre-60s culture. But we sure didn't counter the true fact that there is only one type of sexuality (heterosexuality), and anyone who did counter that fact was considered to be a grade A loon, and still is. :roll:

    I've already answered that question in this thread, oh 3 times ? 4 ? 5 ? Well, better too much information than not enough. Lots of things "in nature" are contrary to nature's design, didn't you know ? :giggle: Whales sometimes beach themselves. They are designed only to live in water, not on land. Whales beaching themselves is contrary to nature, and unfortunately, happens now and then. Some women grow hair on their faces and need to shave daily. Well, that's also "in nature", but contrary to it. Nature's design has a normal size range for animals. Men for instance are normally about 6 feet tall. But sometimes, they grow abnormally short (dwarfs) or abnormally (7 ft +) tall, contrary to nature's design. It is also normal for animals to see and hear, but sometimes they can't. While being "in nature", that is abnormal to nature's design. Last winter was abnormally warm, and felt like summer most of the time > "in nature" > abnormal. GET IT ?

    Maybe YOU should look up the term > contraction (ex. "meds" - medications, "Japs" - Japanese, "plane" - airplane) >>>>> Get it ?

    Normality (also known as normalcy) is the state of being normal. Behaviour can be normal for an individual (intrapersonal normality) when it is consistent with the most common behaviour for that person. Normal is also used to describe when someone's behaviour conforms to the most common behaviour in society (known as conforming to the norm).
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normality_(behavior)

    Perversion is a concept describing those types of human behavior that deviate from that which is understood to be orthodox or normal.
