A response from okcupid regarding my mandatory question.

[hoveringsombrero]

It's the old recruiting angle and implications
that heterosexuals are all faithful and monogamous,
with marriages that never fail.
And the unfounded gays will sleep with their children argument.

I don't even know what to say, or if I should bother at all.

EDIT: I'm not going to bother, if the statistics had even an attempt at citation,
I'd attempt a logical rebuttal.
Since no, I think I'll just respond with a link to this,
cause coldcontrol's comment is the best.thing.ever.

Seems OKC has diffculty adding my comment, so here goes:

Actually there is a book called, IIRC, "Raising boys without men", which is a guide for lesbians. So some gals actually do choose number 3. Consider the equal and opposite book, "Raising Girls without Women". Consider it. Let the implications sink in.

I have no issues with gays or lesbians living together. As long as they don't FORCE their point of view on others. Which includes children. It's just TOO BAD that they can't REPRODUCE and are therefore forced to RECRUIT.

From a study on same sex couples in Holland (the most permissive society on earth), just a few facts: Same sex "marriages" last, on average, only 18 months, during which time each of the "partners" has, on average, 12 "extramarital" sex partners (sexual faithfullness is a "hetero imposition" that homosexual culture explicitly opposes) - that's correct, one new "aunt/uncle" every three weeks. Same sex "marriages" have elevated rates of domestic violence, with lesbians leading by far. And same sex "marriages" have higher rates of child abuse, i.e. parent-child sexual relations.

Gays and lesbians have a right to marry. As long as it is with a partner of the opposite gender, as determined at birth. Many do. Same as everyone else.

"Made that way" doesn't fly. Ever change your skin colour? Remember any food you liked/disliked as a child but now dislike/like? How about changing your "food preference" more than once in respect to one food item.

I like chocolate ice cream.

I have no issues with people liking other flavors, so long as they don't force their views on others. But if you have kids and like rocky road ice cream, you will be forcing your taste for ice cream on them. Also, because you don't like chocolate ice cream, you'll rape them.

Studies from Baskin Robbins show that people are 24% likely to argue while eating flavors other than chocolate. I don't need references or the comparing statistic for chocolate. It's established science from Baskin Robbins. If you don't like chocolate, these same studies show you are likely to try other flavors of ice cream more often. Won't you think of your children not eating chocolate ice cream? You could leave them scarred for life, feasting on rocky road or bubblegum ice cream, and that would be a crime against humanity.

In closing, and on a completely different argument, people that don't like chocolate ice cream should not be able to eat in ice cream shops. If they want to eat in the shop, they can eat chocolate like the rest of us. It's their choice.

(I can't make fun of the food analogy made up there because honestly, it doesn't even make sense.)
