Although no one has said this specifically yet, I know it will come in the days ahead with this debate. For those of you who think homosexuality is simply explainable by being "a person's choice," then I'll give you a task: go and be gay for an extended period of time, particularly in a culture that labels you somehow "other" in doing so. Go. Just go and be gay. Have lots of gay relations. I mean it's just a choice, isn't it? You can be gay too. So go be gay.

Not that simple, is it?

You're simply proving my point. Your heterosexuality doesn't "mean" that much to you, because it doesn't have to.

I think you missed my point. No ones sexuality is worth debating. A homosexual could no more convince me to become homosexual than I could convince him/her to become hetero.

I like biscuits and I hate mayonnaise. I don't like people who don't like biscuits and I don't trust people who like mayonnaise. So there's that

No, that's a stupid argument. It's my choice not to do that. I support Phil!

Because I wont do it does not mean it has not been done. Quite frequently.

You hate mayo? I will not longer converse with you sir. Furthermore, I'm going to delete the links I copied for your heater info.

I haven't missed your point at all. I agree with you that it isn't worth debating openly, assuming that we lived in a society where each sexuality was equally accepted, but we don't. That's why it's worth debating, whether or not you in particular care about it.

When I go out with my buddies and they all order a shot of bourbon I'll order a piña colada with strawberry purée on top and ask the bartender to crank up some bee gees on the juke box.

Is being heterosexual your choice? Or, to use StoVol's example, is liking biscuits over mayo your choice? It may seem like it is, but the fact of the matter is that you have no clue why you like biscuits over mayo (or vice versa). You just do, and you have no way of accounting for it, just like you have no why of accounting for why you're heterosexual and why someone else is homosexual. If it's all simply a choice, we'd be able to account for these differences. But we can't.

I'll eat something with mayo on it but I never request it. Do you trust me or is it a black and white issue?

I don't trust people who are obsessed with ketchup but hate tomatoes. You're eating its paste. Same thing. Just saying.

Good for him, I suppose. Don't really care one way or the other.

Had an uncle Jim that used to say..."He's gay? Thats cool, more [female anatomy] for me."

Not a 100%. But you're a UT fan so... If you were a gator I'd slip poisonous mushrooms, probably amanita pantheria into your dinner salad. You should come over sometime.

I think most of us could care less what someone's sexual preference is. The problem seems to be in the media. They really seem to be pushing this stuff down our throats. Why? My guess is population control. JMO though.
