Personally I like spanking too much to get turned gay by prison, but YMMV obviously.

We are arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS, who is fighting Iran, who is fighting Iraq who we also support against ISIS, while fighting Kurds who we support while they are fighting Syrian rebels.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

There are. Our society is confused about sexuality, when in the end biologically speaking most people ARE bisexual to some extent (some more than others-- some are mostly in to the same gender (homosexual-leaning), some in to the opposite gender (heterosexual-leaning), some are split evenly (purely bisexual)) and a very small amount are purely hetero- or homosexual.

Hmm, intersting. Society is more confused about Transexuality than sexuality in my opinion. I'm more empathy towards the Trans group than the LGB because they are mocked by a fair ammount of LGBs and a lot of the population yet they have done nothing. Yes, I know I am grouping them into a seperate category because I feel they are only placed with the LGBs for sympathy.

2-5% depending on who you ask.
That's an awful vocal minority to cause so much hubub on the national political spectrum. "Obama personally approves of gay marriage, 2-5 out of every hundred people mildly enthusiastic. Religious Right incensed"

The LGBT communitys' attitude towards trans-people is improving, thankfully. Every group has its bad side it must deal with.

Yes, it's a bit inane of the religious right, I certainly agree.

That is true. I have experienced what to be seen as the worst the LGBT has to see. My Best Friend is bi-gendered, she gets a lot of gak thrown at her for no particularly good reason still. She's a child hood friend. I dislike the LGB community in my area because of that, that is probably why I don't like the LGBT movement in general.

the 2-5% arent the only ones making noise. you have to account for the people who wnat that 2-5% to have the same rights as everyone else
tl:dr "Im not gay but Ill speak out for gay rights"
Indeed. I've actually found that the most vocal proponents of same-sex marriage are straight, or at least mostly straight, though that's purely anecdotal.

But only 50% of the time. I'm sure these facts are at least 60% right.

Interesting disscusion. Though I have admired a man for his "beauty" before I have to say its never jumped to "I want to bone him". I think that if as large a segment of the population harbored bisexual tendencies as has been claimed there wouldn't be as much resistence to full blown homosexuality.
In regards to the prison thing, sex amongst male prisoners is almost entirely about domination. Its about SHOWING that I am alpha and YOU are subordinant in every way possible. Like in a pack of dogs. Some of the inmates are selling release but even then it can be chalked up mostl to survival rather than natural behavior.
Basically, as some one who worked in a prison for some time, prison is a horribly artifical situation and I would never use prison behavior to make assumptions about the general population. Or even the prisoners once they were released for that matter.
