You have to show me up with the accents, don't you?

I'll forgive you if you whisper that to me in a lecherous Parisian accent.

*Edit - I'm referring to two different accents there. Just in case we hadn't figured that out.

what we need is more and better science to understand. the politics is a separate thing-- science is not going to tell us one way or another how to live. it merely provides explanations for how things work. politics doesn't explain how things work, but it determines how we live in a society. two very different things.

I major in Psychology and have watched/read various studies where it shows how homosexuals' brains are chemically different than heterosexuals. This is like first-year Psychology for Christ's sake. If you want to take the Christian side and be ignorant, go for it.

I was pretty much born a homosexual.I realized as a kid that i was attracted to men.In saying that,a lot of people pose as this or that, so to speak

what the fuck? ME a christian? or any religious type??

please! please!!!

do you EVER read for comprehension? what university admitted you?

seriously-- please read the fuck over again

brains are chemically different. sure. not just that-- the corpus colossus is bigger as i understand. and there will be other differences.

but what's the cause? have we isolated the "gay gene" yet? or a set of genes? NO. so don't jump to conclusions without proof.

what kind of science do you practice? the type that sees an effect and attributes an ideologically determined cause?

seems to me you are the religious one here-- go and read on the scientific method & experiment design, please. what the fuck...

gaaaah-- this kind of shit, from someone who should know better, just frustrates and pisses me off

you get an F

-- seriously, please read again what i wrote & read for comprehension.

Whatever, churchy.

porkmarras · 04.28.2006, 09:22 AM

I dont actually think that your sexuality plays an important factor in how your brain works.I met plenty of gay and straight people who are thick as a brick and equally i have met gay/straight people who were gifted in many different ways(wink wink).

porkmarras · 04.28.2006, 09:41 AM

To change the subject a bit,i find it scary that even though Darwin proved effectively the inexistence of different races amongst human beings we still use the word race on many newspapers and books etc to refer about people who come from a different continent or have different skin pigmentation from ours.Ethnics are certainly a reality but races?Talk about giving ground for power to racist twats...........

No one is gay, we just pretend to scare our parents.

girlgun · 01.26.2008, 01:30 PM

i am a firm believer that every part of what makes us... us... is abot 90% genetic. so yes, i believe being gay is mostly not "nurture" and is "nature". and i do think 90% of the time it is genetic and that 10% of the time nurture is what makes someone gay.

my family is a bit of lil study on genetics. 3 of my 4 siblings were adopted (at birth). my brother and sister (brother being my only blood sibling) are entirely different despite only being 7 months apart. when my sister turned 18, her natural family contacted her. she has 2 full natural siblings. they are EXACTLY like her. same personality types, same interests and hobbies. just downright strange really how similar they are. she was never like my brother and me... despite growing up with us... same experiences and life as my brother. but she's one of them....
