If people were gay then...... we wouldn't have as many children.... and then if even more people were gay. We wouldn't have any children, thus there would be nobody to have this conversation.

No offence, but i found it funny.


EXACTLY!!

*IF* (and that's a BIG if) gays were truly BORN gay, who's to say that nature would always be certain of the *percentage* of gays to conceive..

Hypothetical situation: There is no technology which would enable gays to have children OTHER than by having sex with an opposite sex person, so we must revert back to NATURAL pro-creation. 'Gays' are born gay. 15% of the world's population is NOW gay. A world disaster strikes, wiping out 90% of the heterosexual population -- leaving more gays than straights alive.

What the hell do you think would happen to our species as a whole if there were more (naturally born) GAYS than STRAIGHTS alive? Would we flourish as a race and STILL be able to sustain ourselves, when every *true* gay is utterly REPULSED by the idea of having sex with an opposite sex individual?

All in all, if gays are actually BORN gay -- who's to say that mother nature would not someday lose balance and begin creating more gays than straights? There's no way to tell for sure.. and with the way of the world these days, mother nature is already flipping and mixing up her usual operation here (i.e. chaos has erupted on earth and within nature).

I still stand firm that gays are created that way through environment, EXPOSURE, education, peer influence and the like.. NOT BY GENETICS! And not by "nature' in its purest form. Genetics give us all a blank slate to work with upon birth regarding sexuality.

It is, therefore, OUR INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY to create and express our personal preferences.

I'm not here to argue with anyone -- I've done my research, I have my own mind and this is what I think -- like it or not.

So why did you become straight? I am curious. Which aspect of the nurture process and environment in general did you base this decision from?

I do agree with Lucid that its not as if, in that hypothetical situation, That Homosexuals would simply state "im not going to help man kind for sex with the opposite gender cause that is gross". it is simply not logical.

Think of it in our case. Lets say the opposite is true, as in heterosexuals would need homosexuals to mate with and populate the human race. would you chose to slowly end our race simply because you dont like having sex with the same gender? no. I would instantly make that sacrifice to save our race.

You are never going to convince people, either with logic, scientific data, or serious debate.

In this thread, posters (including me) have taken the time to research and post scientific data such as hormone levels, brain mapping, and brain similarities/differences in the brains of homosexual men and women compared to straight men and women.

It is like with religion (or maybe because of it); if someone believes in something strong enough, no amount of logic or science will change their minds. I don't know if it is due to fear or denial or just deep seeded faith, but the nature versus nurture debate will never be solved for some people, even if the "gay gene" is someday found.

And we're 6 billion plus and growing, so I don't see where 'breeders' need our help in keeping the population up, y'all are doing a bang up job on your own!

Veritas Lux Mea if the population was being wiped out and everyone was being born gay all gay people have to do is have sex with the opposite sex, though they may not like it, to reproduce for humanity. Simple really. Gays are physically able to reproduce with the opposite sex, they usually simple don't wish to.

If we are to believe being a homosexual is something you are born as it seems that even with a strecth of the numbers homosexuality is an attraction less than 20% of us are born with. I doubt we have anything to worry about, since the world is vastly over populated already. Since they can't make children biologically with each other, gay couples are often adopting the already birthed children that are apart of our over populated planet.

no i know, im just replying to someones argument about there been a global catastrophy and theres only 20% of the population left, %15 percent being gays, and gays not wanting to reproduce cause they think its gross. which is probably the worst argument to get on to this topic so far.

Ahh, you're right, weak arguement. But if it comes down to that, I for one, will go ahead and take one for the team, so to speak. But even if we dwindle down to 20%, that's still 1,200,000,000 people, and 15% of that is 180,000,000 leaving 1,020,000,000 to 'repopulate' the earth. Historically speaking, that's the equivelant of the world's population in the mid 1800's and I don't think we were in trouble of extinction then.

Could you please cite credible sources for all the things you've stated? Just curious where you gain this information. Some of it I disagree with but I'm not going to bother linking the counter research for you unless I know if you are stating these things as facts supported by something or if this is just your opinion, which I don't plan on trying to dispute because that often proves useless.
