@bp4288 Lol what a horrible documentary on stereotyping.

[turockandar]

What are the parents thinking???????? They should at least try to encourage their gender atypical son to pursue more 'masculine' pursuits not because being gay is morally wrong but rather because he will be ostracized at school, later in life and will not be able to have children. Simply put being heterosexual is simpler.

Just because it is genetic, it doesn't mean they should be allowed to get married.

Don't get me wrong, I support homosexual marriage, but using genes or nature as an excuse to allow them is ridiculous.

They should be allowed because they can be as good parents as heterosexual parents, they can raise a family in similar or same conditions, same they need the same protection that heterosexuals get when they get married. Is a matter of being fair.

There are definitely 'lispers'; I would say they're a sub-set of the Queens :)

@OrthodoxDarwinist

Ah, thanks for the reply (I really didnt expect it). I agree with what you say. Some gays are completely obvious and some others aren't.

One thing that still bothers me, some people believe gays have the so-called gay lisp in pronouncing some letters (like 's', etc). Do you believe that all gays have it, or only a part of gays, or perhaps there is no such thing as gay lisp?

[OrthodoxDarwinist]

This shows full well that homosexuality is genetic.

This is congruent with the fact that in nature all species that display sexual dimorphism have a certain proportion of the population that is homosexual (ie: yes there is such a thing as gay dolphins, bonobos, etc).

So since we know it's genetic and someone's innate nature, we have to accomodate them within the legal framework and allow same-sex marriage, as an equally natural union as heterosexual marriage!

@jonedpapi

Not necessarily. It's more the "queenish" type of gays you're thinking about who are flamboyant; but from working at a gay establishment (which was the most fun time of my life) there are the more "blokey" type of gay man, who for some reason is usually more muscular. Many of these are almost like bikers in their appearance and facade, the very opposite of "the queen".
