Homosexuality

Do the Logic

• It is normal, natural for a certain percentage of any population to be homosexual.
• It is not a choice, because nobody chooses their romantic and sexual feelings (what they like or don't like) any more than anyone chooses whether they like, say, the taste of tuna sandwiches or not. And you can't change these things.
• But, even if sexuality could be chosen:
• Why choose it and therefore instantly have a pool of many times fewer people to potentially have a consenting relationship with, given the *vast* majority of people of either sex aren't even bisexual let alone wholly homosexual?
• Why choose it, given the hostility and discrimination, including imprisonment, torture, and death historically and even today meted out to homosexuals? You'd have to be self-harmfully mad to choose it.
• It being a choice is logically invalidated by begging the logically unresolvable questions: What was your sexuality or non-sexuality before making that choice? and How was *that* determined? If you are wholly heterosexual, by definition you are romantically and sexually attracted to only those of the opposite sex (and are positively averse to engaging in romantic and sexual behaviour with other members of your own sex), in which case, it would be utterly irrational, nonsensical to choose to be otherwise.
• More and more species of animals are observed in which exist homosexual individuals, animals who could never have had nor have the intellectual ability to even conceive of sexuality, let alone choose one.
• Homosexuals have just as much inherent *vital* *need* to love and be loved. To love is to live; to be denied the opportunity per se to love is the living death, likewise, to be loved.
• Homophobia is often so casual, and think of the negative consequences. Particularly if you're heterosexual, imagine someone calling at your house and saying you must split with your romantic/sexual partner you deeply love because some bunch of people over there just don't like it. Think how devastated you would be not being able to see that person ever again and, even worse, not being able to have another romantic and/or sexual relationship ever again.

But you don't even need to consider the above; just test it with the 'Golden Rule of Freedom':

True freedom is being able to behave in whatever way one likes as long as it causes no actual harm to anyone else.

Do you believe in true freedom?
