Yes, it's a taunt. You won't face up to your own beliefs.
If homosexuality is a choice and homosexual marriage is allowed, the predicted increase in homosexuality can only
mean that sexual identity, in this case, was closeted by the illegality of homosexual marriage. If you really believe
any of that, then the warp and woof of sexual identity is a thin tissue, restrained only by cultural rejection. And as the degree of rejection is lifted, a large chunk of the population will decide it is not hetero at all.

Taunt right back to you. You wouldn't know society's better interest if it walked up to you and bit you.

And as the degree of rejection is lifted, a large chunk of the population will decide it is not hetero at all.

And all this is a compelling societal interest how?

You haven't answered my question yet.

You brought up my motivation. What's yours?

I face up to my beliefs every morning. And I don't cut myself.

So where do you get off calling me a hypocrite?

Why, gcruse, you just conceded that cultural norms play a heavy role in suppressing anti-social behavior. It's always nice when libertarians help to make the social conservative case.
