HansNZ,
GET OVER IT! Stop trying to justify your behavior and seeking redemption from your persecutors by citing "scientific research on animals". If you want to be gay - be gay. GET OVER IT!
And before you argue that you could be arrested for engaging in homosexual acts - public or private - the same can be done to heterosexuals. If in public, the police can cite the both of you for indecency. In private, well hell, just move to another state that's not completely repressed and thrown back to the 1800's.
I'm getting sick of reading post after post by you where you continue to seek justification and approval from a group (EF) that for the most part don't care. And your attempts at "straight" bashing is just ridiculous. Otherwise - how would you find the next crop of guys to ream your ass? And take the artificial insemination argument and leave it in New Zealand - it takes a man and a woman to produce a child. Hate to brake that to you. Have a cookie.
Oh and the Christianity bashing - real nice. That's one of the reasons the USA was founded. Great soapbox to be criticizing from. How about staying on your "lush" rock and keeping your mouth shut?
As for the rest of the conservative Right Wingers - you don't like/understand them, they don't like/understand you. Tie game. Now go home and shut up.
You criticize everything we do in America - good for you. Glad to know you have an opinion, just like every other person on the planet. But for everything this board is supposed to represent - how about you try a little less criticizing and justifying?
