It's totally absurd, as I said, to equate what two consenting adults do in their bedrooms to pedophilia and bestiality. It is indeed about informed consent and whether there is any harm to the other partner and to the larger society.
Everything that is wrong is not because it harms someone. Other morality is hard to explain but is real. And why is harming someone bad? Can you explain that? See what I mean, morality isn't a science. Basing it on whether it harms someone makes some feel like they've broken it down to a science but they haven't.
I personally find the sexual promiscuity and total lack of responsibility exhibited by some heterosexual men, like the notorious man who fathered twenty children while on assistance and can support none of them, damn reprehensible too. The only recourse we have as a society is to incarcerate men like him for non-payment of child support, for which I would increase the penalty and make the counts consecutive for each child and each infraction. Done right you could lock him up for twenty years, and good riddance. Why should society pay to support his offspring and then suffer their dysfunctional behavior in years to come?
I totally agree.
I would really urge people to do some reading on the subject of human sexuality, especially young people who don't have much worldly experience. Are people "born" homosexual? I don't know for sure, but the research seems to be leaning in that direction.
I feel the same way.
There's also, among certain boys and young men, "sexual" activity to exert power, as in hazing or fraternity rituals. This doesn't make someone "gay", although it may be illegal given a certain set of circumstances.
And those people are screwed up in the head. That is not normal for guys at all AFAIK. "Ha, I'm going to dominate you by having sex with you". WTF? IMO, it's either big tough guys who are secretly gay or guys who are obsessed with being dark and vulgar.
Sexual preferences sort of solidify at some point, with the majority as heterosexuals. However, given certain situational contexts, the behavior might be expressed again. Are there people nowadays who were not "born" gay but because of relaxed societal attitudes have homosexual sex? Probably.
That's wrong just as an 8 year old kid and 30 year old man having consensual sex is wrong.
It doesn't matter to me. So long as none of this harms another person and is totally consensual, and by that I mean there is no abusive power relationship of any kind, then I don't think it's anyone else's business. So long as these conditions are met, I'm far more concerned with how people behave outside their bedrooms, both toward me and toward the society as a whole, and the havoc they can create there.
See, this is a value the Western world as lost. We are ignoring our instinct that tells us certain things behind closed doors are wrong, because we think they're illogical(harm is all that matters......) thoughts. Certain behavior in certain relationships is inappropriate and wrong even is no one is harmed. Sex between two men who are not naturally gay is an example.
@Fire-Haired,
Maleth is correct by the way. You're participated in these discussions over and over again, but you never do the research. Reading may not be a favorite or easy endeavor for you but there is no substitute for it.
I rarely participate in these discussions. Maybe a few times a year I'll post something about this. I haven't done research because I rarely ever think about it. I don't care very much. No one has the time to become an expert in every subject that rarely catches their interest. But, sure I will read stuff on it.
I already have a little bit. The little I read says Gay men don't have the sexuality of women, they have the same sexual behavior as straight men. The way the male and female sexual brain works is very differnt and gay men's brain works the same as straight men. This weakens arguments that claim gay men have female sexual brains, something I've argued against here before.
Until you do it there's no point in repeating the same things over and over again.
I keep repeating them because they're right. You guys refuse to face my argument head on because you can't beat it. You give the "consensual" argument, I face the argument head on, then you repeat yourself without responding to me.
