    Re: Is homophobia a choice?

    I don't see how labeling someone a ' homophobe ' is acceptable. Just because they do not condone the act of homosexuality. Nor should a ' homo ' be labeled as a ' peter puffer ', ' queer ', or ' fag. ' Just because of what they do what they wish. ( Even if what they are doing is awkward to others. ) Why hasn't anyone learned?

    Everything is a choice.

    WTF?

    If you puff on peters, it's not ok to be called a peter puffer?

    I wouldn't be offended if someone called me a pussy licker.

    Life = Choice
    Suckin a dick = Choice
    Eating Pussy = Choice

    but to slenderize and discriminate a choice with consequence.

    Really?

    You could choose to find yourself attracted to and able to fall in romantic love with men?

    I couldn't choose that because I already chose women.

    However, it seems like a lot of gay people have chosen straight relationships and had kids so I would say yes, it seems like it is quite possible for people to make that choice.

    You did?

    When did you make that conscious choice? When was it a reasonable possibility that you could go either way (or both)? When were you ever looking at men and saying, "yeah, I could totally go for that, but I think I'm going to go with women instead?"

    "Romance" has zipzeronada to do with it.


    This is about misplaced and misguided lust.


    It HAS to be misplaced and misguided since one must completely deny and/or ignore the design of ones own body to engage in such an activity.


    "Romance"

    Are we seriously questioning human choice? Everything is a choice. I choose to let people around me live. If I wanted to I could take their lives, but I CHOOSE to let them live. Just like a 'queer' CHOOSES to suck a cock.

    Yep, I would agree with that.

    I don't think there's anything wrong with choosing homosexuality like there is with choosing murdering people for no reason, but it's all a choice.

    Bullshit.

    Gays end up in committed relationships that are equivalent in everything except name to heterosexual relationships.


    If your SO performs fellatio on you, are you ignoring the design of your bodies?

    I've stated this in a similar thread, but I became obsessed with the female boday at around 5 yrs old. I didn't really think about it, consider the alternative, I just knew that was what I wanted. In my 59 yrs on the planet I have had close, very close relationships with men, but I never wanted to have sex with a man, just never did. I've posed this question before and only two people answered, but does any one here really think they could change their sexual preference? I can't think of a time in my life that I could've changed.

    However, if one states that homosexual attraction is a choice then it would stand to reason that heterosexual attraction is a choice.

    If you can't answer my first question, then at least describe how and when you decided to go with the opposite sex.

    pramjockey, ain't trying to hijack your post just want a little intellectual honesty from all sides.

    Who says humans are designed for fellatio? Just asking?
