Love Won Out

[MrFun]

Well then it might be possible for a black guy to paint himself white, and declared that he changed his race.

MrFun, I realize that you need to keep the "we can't change" attitude so that people won't just think that they can "turn you straight," but it is clear that someone can change sexualities either way during their lifetime.

[Skanky Burns]

Just because some can, doesn't necessarily mean that everyone can. Nor does it mean that someone should.

[MrFun]

Nope, they can't.

Just as a black person cannot change his/her race by painting themselves white, a homosexual cannot change his/her sexual orientation by marrying someone of the opposite gender.

I hear that Sports Illustrated is branching otu into this area. Let's see how many of you can resist the "Swimsuit Issue" therapy.

Hey guess what . . .

the hottest babe does absolutely nothing for me.

Cindy Crawford -- nada

Jennifer Love Hewitt -- zilch

Pamela Anderson -- no thanks

and so on, and so on . . .

[Drake Tungsten]

You are clearly deranged, Mr. Fun. And not just because you mentioned Jennifer Love Hewitt's name in the same breath as Cindy Crawford's...

Isn't that basically what I said in my first post?

It's probably possible in a lot of cases, but it's definitely not necessary.

What do you make of formerly gay people who end up in heterosexual marriages, and formerly heterosexual people who switch to homosexuality?

Skin color, facial features, etc. are caused entirely by the genes of the parents. Homosexuality may have many factors involved, but none of them are hereditary.


I have the same end opinion on most gay-related issues as you. I just think that a lot of your reasoning is faulty.

You think that people think they're hot?

As I stated already -- you can act straight by getting married, getting a suburban home with the picket white fence, a pet dog named Fido, and then pop out 2.5 children.

But you will still be gay for the rest of your life while living the lie of being straight.

And wasn't I basically agreeing with you?

Thats not exactly "changing sexual preference", now, is it?

[MrFun]

Exactly -- it's not.

What about people who have been married for a while, and then divorce and become homosexual after that. Do you think they were just always gay, or do you think that the bad experience with the opposite gender helped make them "switch.?"

I have talked with many homosexual men who are older than me, who have been married and divorced, or are still married.

Guess what all of those guys I talked with said in one form or another . . .

they were gay before they ever married.
