Personally, I think this would help both sides (gays and anti-gays) deal with the issue more effectively and peacefully.
For gays, I think most gays don't want to be gay. It obviously puts them at odds with society in so many fundamental ways. From dating and prom to marriage and raising kids, being gay is brings conflict to all these areas and more.
And not to hurt anyone's feelings, but I really don't think TIITB is desired by any human being initially. I mean, while pooping might provide some relief to us all (especially if you've been holding it in all day), it's certainly not something you get all excited about or dream of. And TIITB just seems like a really really rough and painful version of pooping, and those that do like it most likely convinced themselves they liked it over time. But cumming is natural and pleasurable from the very first time you did it. So, I really don't think the rectum was intended to be a sexual organ.
Having said that, I do believe that the sexual chemistry and chemical attractions between people can be tilted towards same sex relationships, both at a young age and involuntarily. I also believe the desire to take on the persona and preferences of the opposite sex can come at an early age and be involuntary. I believe these things can be innate or they can develop due to some experience or another.
What I don't understand is, why society refuses to view this as a sickness. Just like if you were born deaf or due to some experience you became deaf? It seems, for homosexuals, that they want these issues to be categorized as part of their identity. Like, this is who they are not what they suffer from.
For those that oppose homosexuality, they seem to think of it as solely a deviant behavior or rebelliousness, as if gays were stubbornly choosing to be
gay and take on all the problems associated with that. To this, many argue "when did straight people choose to be straight?" Which is a good point.
So I say, view homosexuality as an illness, then look for a cure. Thoughts?

Where do you draw the line on this?
So having anal sex with a female is fine?
Gays doing nothing but oral is fine?
If not then no oral sex for either men or women?
Doggystyle should be treated as a disease?
Missionary is the only acceptable position?
Your entire argument is based on anal sex being un-human which is (impressively) one of the stupidest platforms i've seen on why gayness is wrong. Seriously...you're comparing deafness to anal sex.
Are you serious?

Yeah but you're not trying to make it last (at least I hope not). Most people want to poop, get it all out and over with, then leave quickly. I mean, there's no foreplay to pooping. It's not like you want to tingle your ass play with yourself before it comes out, and it's not like you want it to come out extra slowly, or hope it goes back up in you so it can come out again.

The staple of a hetero sexual relationship is penile/vaginal intercourse. I think most would agree that those organs are biologically 'intended' for sexual intercourse. The OP's point is that a homo relationship isn't grounded in our biology in the same way.
It's not a question of what's right or wrong, natural or unnatural. If you're a fat fuk who doesn't exercise, it's normal, but pathological, for the body to develop heart disease. Gayness may seem to come naturally and be normal in our society, but who says it's not pathological?
It's not that there is evidence that homosexuality is a disease, but there's no evidence that it's not either.Last edited by SlammaJamma; 12-11-2008 at 10:02 PM.

Just because something puts a person at odds with society it doesn't follow that they are "ill". What about having a controverisal or unpopular opinion, does that mean that the person holding that view is "ill". If homosexuality was seen as an illness people would not suddenly become accepting of gay people and appreciate them more, they would instead try to "cure" it (as some people already like to attempt to do). If you feel that gay people are mistreated by society, why not address that, instead of saying "oh, society doesn't like them, so we must cure them of their desires"? You are contradicting yourself.

I'm a straight guy and I love having my ass played with. Someone who knows how to stimulate me anally is seriously like 100 normal intercourse orgasms.

Its a defect from the biological standpoint, gay men have shown to have brain scans similar to females but they have male bodies - they are in the wrong physical form.

So true. I would like to know what is the educaiton level and credentials of the people, especially the younger ones, here who have all the answers to what homosexuality is and is not. What are Hookahbird's credentials other than his belief in a 2,500 year old set of parchments.
Short answer: none. The book I'll put my trust in is the DSM IV.
People who are outside the scientific and medical community, and/or have no direct knowledge of homosexuality, are not qualified to make pronouncements on it. Their pronouncements and observations are false ones, akin to the medieval belief in 'spontaneous generation'. Because rodents and other vermin were always observed near grain stores, it was believed that these rodents and other vermin arose from the grain itself. That is as preposterous as laypeople making pronouncements on homosexuality. The observations of these people who think they know what is natural and unnatural are false and incomplete, not to mention simple cultural parroting... memes.
I too will go with the findings of the medical and scientific communities, and my own knowledge of myself. I didn't decide to becom ehomosexual, and I had no childhood trauma. I am actually quite comfortable in my homosexuality; I like men and I am sure I will always like men. Why do I like men? Hell if I know but I'm glad I do."Go home, have a beer and smash something. That's what I would do" - Unknown (but probably Thor).
