Then you're an idiot.

edit: To further explain, there will ALWAYS be someone who doesn't agree with something. Always. You can NEVER get past that. Ever.
I agree that there will always be someone doesn't "agree" with something, but I believe that accepting other people for who they are will be easier for everyone in the future.

Oh Nymethus, when will you learn? :cookieMonster:

I took more time to explain it.
Are you kidding me?

There will always be people who hate gay people, just like there will always be people who hate black people, religious people, atheists, white people, Americans, British folk, Asians, Mexicans and any other nationality, letter of LGBT, race, religious persuasion or any kind of trait that makes people different. It is a fact of life and you'd be naive to think any group of people (particularly that you're a part of) will ever be 100% accepted by everyone on this celestial ball.
What makes you so sure of this?


No, what's that?

From Wikipedia...

Proposition 8 (or the California Marriage Protection Act) was a ballot proposition and constitutional amendment passed in the November 2008, state elections. The measure added a new provision, Section 7.5 of the Declaration of Rights, to the California Constitution, which provides that "only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California."

Proposition 2 was a California ballot proposition in that state's general election on November 4, 2008. The proposition adds a chapter to Division 20 of the California Health and Safety Code to prohibit the confinement of certain farm animals in a manner that does not allow them to turn around freely, lie down, stand up, and fully extend their limbs.

Oh Nymethus, when will you learn?
Oh IkeTheGeneric, will you contribute to the thread anytime soon?

I'm having a hard time understanding your weird wording. If someone doesn't agree with someone, it'd be hard to accept them for how they were born.

Explain "Agree" vs. "Accept" in this situation.

What makes you so sure of this?

Because people will hate other people. Period. We can make everyone equal in rights and privileged and nationally (hell, all the countries, why not?) declare that we will from that point forward see gay couples the same as heteroloveual couples. However, there's always going to be some bigot that doesn't agree with that and still hates them. People still legitimately hate black people.

Here's a truism for you: If you believe that people can be born to be chemically attracted to members of their own gender, it should be no surprise that people can be born to chemically hate you for that.

And I cast back the question at you. You can't disagree with how someone was born.

Homoloveuality is a choice, you dipstuff. I'm not born with a craze to suck every richard I see.

What you said does apply half of what he said, though.

So you're homoloveual, Nymethus. Not everybody has a problem with it, and even if they do I don't think it really matters to them. If you want to be "accepted", then stop telling everybody you're gay so much.

The decision to act on homoloveual impulses is a choice, but it's not a choice to be born with those impulses and preferences. For a homoloveual, forcing himself to be straight would be the same as a straight person forcing themselves to be gay.

I've never met a homoloveual who was born with homoloveual tendencies.

I have, I think is name started with an N.

So if someone does not find the same gender attractive why won't they just start liking it? Perhaps because it doesn't work like that?
