The left doesn’t really give a tinker’s damn about homosexuals, transvestites, minorities, or anybody else they gush over.

They’re just putting together a coalition of people who are angry failures that want to blame someone for the condition they are in. The left promises revenge, in exchange for their vote.

When the left finally gets to Stalin level control, you’re gonna see a lot of bewildered, dazed liberals staggering around, wondering why they are being arrested and shot just like everybody else.

Is a bisexual born that way, too? If there is a genetic explanation, why is it that there are an almost infinite variety of behaviors that fall between “gay” and “straight”?

Exactly what I have been saying ever since they dropped the “Alternative lifestyle choice” from the 1980’s and 90’s. If born that way then the pedophiles are THRILLED...Because their “condition” is next to be legitimized!

Classic case of house divided...they will come to ruin for it!

Absolutely.

There is no reason we (rightly) regard pedophiles as prosecutable and regular homos (laughably) as preferential.

Justice Scalia made that point in the Texas sodomy case several years ago. Texans in some areas had enacted laws to make sodomy illegal; the U.S. Supreme Court called this unconstitutionally discriminatory.

Justice Scalia told the majority of the court that all laws regarding sexual mores were established by voter consensus; and that if the court went down this (back) road, it meant that voters could effectively NEVER ban any particular sexual activity, so long as someone could claim such a law was unfair.

Pedophilia, in the law at least, is consensually determined. The court has already ruled, in the Texas case, that mere voter consensus is not enough to establish such limits.

At least that is my memory of the case and its implications.

Why is born that way even relevant?

Bruce Jenner was born with a mans body and contends he a female mind... so the gays accept your can be born sexually "missconfigured"... so why is it what the mind wants vs coming to terms with physical reality?

I have never understood why some on our side feel so strongly about this issue.

Birth defects happen all the time, I see no reason to think that sexuality might somehow be immune from defects.

Now, having said that, I also believe people who are not born defective in a sexual sense can become homosexual through some sort of trauma, usually some sort of rape that damages them mentally.

You're letting emotion cloud reason and logic. If they are 'born-that-way', if is a flaw in the wiring of the brain, then, ipso facto, like schizophrenics, there is the possibility of a cure, or at least treatment.

HOWEVER, show me a Progressive that will admit this. The crazies want it both ways. It's not a birth defect, but they can't control it, any more than if it was a harelip. Something is seriously wrong, here.

I live in Portland, despite the room temperature IQ of the locals. No one here questions the problem, and are even proud that they are too stupid to see any conflict. The magic spell is to wave a your wand with a small flick and say 'Inclusive'.

My own opinion is that they are all searching for the door to the alternate reality where lives the "Ultimate orgasm", like druggies searching for the Forever Buzz.

Interesting way of approaching the issue, but identical twin studies discredit the idea. Identical twins share the exact same dna and in the case where one male twin is homosexual less than 11% of the time is the other male twin homosexual. If it's not a biological imperative than choice and/or environment must be major factors.

IOW, they are not born that way.

Pyromaniacs are born that way also. It's just what they choose to engage in or not engage in that defines them as pyromaniacs or sexual deviants.

Well, just mention to a homosexual that gene therapy may one day be able to permit parents to deselect homosexual likelihood from their child’s chromosome makeup. Watch how they behave when they find out you consider homosexuals to be defective.
