Some day who will understand this? That's basically what I was saying.



I was quoting...oh never mind.

Look, if you're going to go there, at least do it right.

Ok, for the record, I couldn't care less about the issue itself, but I do find the reaction hilarious.

I never saw "outrage" but there was a lot of disagreement with the decision to separate them, and some folks were pointing to this as evidence that homosexuality is natural, etc.

The problem with drawing a comparison, is that you, well, validate the comparison.

Quote:
It appears a female has come between a same-sex penguin couple at the Toronto Zoo.

Zoo employees split up the "gay" couple last month in hopes that Buddy and Pedro would breed with female penguins. On Monday, they said Buddy had mated with a female while Pedro is still trying, according to The Associated Press.

The African penguins had shared the nest they built since coming to the zoo about a year ago.

Zoo Curator Tom Mason described their bond as social -- not sexual -- and said when the birds rejoin the general population, they are likely to stay with their female matches and go their separate ways.

Buddy, who is 21, had a female mate for 10 years and produced some offspring before his partner died. Pedro, 10, has yet to produce any offspring, according to the AP.

For humor's sake, I hope some anti-gay jackasses now use this as "evidence" that homosexuality can be cured.

Moral of the story - don't compare yourself to animals.

Homosexuality can be tempered by societal pressure to be with someone of the opposite sex, but the desires would not go away. I think most people are capable of being sexual with nearly anyone else, although their degree of desire varies.

So, what you're saying is that under the right circumstances, you'd get it on with another guy.

Y'all would. Trouble is, those circumstances may involve a serious enough case of amnesia to forget your social conditioning.

Not really. I am just saying it is possible, like with a doll, an animal, a couch, a pie, a child, and so on. You are not in control of your body?

Nonsense.

If ... well, pick some beautiful and personable woman, for instance... if she were to approach me and behave provocatively my body would have a reaction. In that way, no, I'm not in control.

I am, however, in charge of my body, in that I'd remain faithful to my wife and not do anything.

If you can cause a reaction with your hand, you can cause one with anything.

That's not why, but no - never will be.

And no, I don't think I could be a gay porn star.

There's a great deal of "gay for the stay" that goes on in prisons, among men and women. There's plenty of "gay for pay" among porn workers as well, and the fact that the men can get hard enough to perform indicates in both cases that the possibility of sex can definitely turn a fairly minor same-sex attraction into enough arousal to get it on.

Talya overstates it a bit, not everyone has enough same-sex attraction that they'd get it on with the same sex, but the fact is that a minor level of same-sex attraction is much more widespread than most people credit, and a minor level of opposite-sex attraction is quite prevalent amongst gay people.
