Why Homosexuality Should be Banned

[Brandon237]

Funny video, I like the way he addresses everything, anyone insulted by the video has some mental reforms to go through. Although the thread title was a little misleading...

And welcome to the escapist, may it treat you well and let you prosper... don't go to the basement.

You know what's really horrible?
I just know that there is someone somewhere watching that video and appropriating the satirical points at face value.
And that makes me a saaaad Panda.

For more information on the subject matter, Here's the genius Stewart Lee:

Oh, I love that clip. No idea about the rest of his routines, but he's spot on with that.

I use Ancient Greece as an example when I'm discussing homosexuality, but I always dread that they'll bring up the fact that the Greeks also had slavery.

Really funny video OP thanks for linking it.

I wouldn't worry anyone you could be arguing against on this topic would probably think slavery is right...
>_>

I'm all out for gay rights and all, this video just makes me feel mad.

Are you trying to tease me?

[sup]It's working XD[/sup]

I might be trying to do just that.

Evil! I like it...

I don't read up on studies but from my perspective I have to think it's more genetic than environment. I was raised Baptist (ugh) but from an early age I knew I liked both boy's & girl's even being brought up in a very & I mean a VERY straight environment. I had no contact or any other influence other than straight life till my teens & found my fathers Bisexual porn. By accident of coarse *wink* so just from growing up this way both Bi & Trans that I have to think it's more genetic imo.

I actually grew up not thinking about sexuality much. I had a few gay crushes here and there, but nothing major. I found girls very sexy, just like all my friends, and loved me some solo and lesbian adult material (cough). Buuuut, I almost felt asexual; I didn't really have any urges to actually be in a relationship or to seek out sex. Then a little while ago I started looking into transgender and realized I was deeply attracted to the idea of being in a relationship with someone who doesn't fit the gender norms. No idea why, though. Still to this day I'm conflicted with the issue and am not sure what sexually arouses me the most or what I really want. I think I'm slowly learning more about myself and it seems I might find the anatomy of girls very slightly more attractive than guys, but I'd prefer to be with a guy or a transgender girl.

It's a complicated thing, sexuality.

Actually one of the books of Christianity (Sorry, don't know which one.) condones having a slave, and even details how to properly beat them and it not be seen as wrong in the eyes of the lord. I think it says something along the lines of if they can walk in three days after it, then it's fine and nothing is wrong.

Sweet, I'm sorted then. Thank you very much for that insight. Might have to look up the exact book and passage. Can never have too many details, and having details often leaves them shocked and confused.

Mad how allot of people don't support gay rights.

Great video. At first I saw the post subject and thought, "The hell?!?", then saw the video and got a nice grin.

 

[Brandon237]

I thought the basement was just another place to read funny crap by the posters here, but reading some of it actually disturbed me 0.o On the bright side we are now BOTH scarred

Fantastic! We agree then. I thought the reason was going to be something I could dispute

 

[supermariner]

I like that video
The passive aggressive approach is always the funniest regardless of effectiveness
yeah i mean i agree with the point he's making there
that all these reasons are absurd. But the video was more entertaining than meaningful really
its all been said before in different ways

I work off the principle that anyone who hates another does so not out of anger, but out of ignorance. Let us inform the uninformed!

 

[Drtfgf5]

Again how would you "Ban" homosexuality?

It has. But often hilarious satire helps drill the point home XP

Yup, we had an anti gay group at my old school a few years back (Catholic School, so they thought it was a good thing) and one of my friends who was outlay gay at the time, used that quote and just stunned the whole room into silence, it was hilarious.

Side note, I'm actually going out with her now, so next time I see her I'll ask what book the quotes for, it's a great argument stopper.

Ignorance leads to fear, fear leads to anger. A fairly watertight concept, I think. You're right. Inform the uninformed! [sub]and if we can mock them in the process, so much the better...[/sub]

By making it illegal, I guess. It used to be in a lot of places and still is in many more. Was only a few decades or so it was decriminalized in the U.S, I think.
