Russia Just Invaded Ukraine

Homosexuality isn't a learned behavior, that's pure speculation on your part which has been scientifically studied to death and disproven.

As Realk pointed out, younger generations have lost the stigma of what being gay means and they're children of a generation that decreasingly doesn't have the stigma either. Procreation is a biological necessity to any species, but for a fully sentient and sapient species like ours, it is also a choice.

Wrong. It has not been scientifically studied to death and disproven. If being gay is not a learned behavior, then how do you explain people that come out as gay but later on in life they realize they are actually not? How do you explain otherwise straight males raping each other in prison?

Being gay does not require sentience. Homosexuality has been observed in hundreds of other animal species. Even worms can be fudge packers.

[Realk]

i wont argue that, when i was talking about gay folks earlier that decided they were gay later in life that was both male and female. I have never and probably will never be in prison but I dont think I could rape anyone much less a dude even if was only a power move.

Oh for sure. Yeah I’m sure that has something to do with it, but it doesn’t fully explain the exponential increase. Gen Z represents 20% of all identified gays according to some studies. Seems to me like some of it is learned behavior, though I admit that is just my opinion and pure speculation. Social science is often not 100% scientific.

Short answer: Social media.

Also, LGB(T) isn't just "gay" anymore, as it includes pretty much anything now that isn't straight, 99% of which is just made up bullshit that people keep coming up with every other day now.

Also, for white people, it's a pretty effective tool to be white and still have a way to claim victimhood status while hiding behind cancel culture, and cancel culture wouldn't exist without social media.

You're a moron, I said procreation is a choice, not homosexuality to read. One of the most celebrated researchers into human sexuality, Kinsey, very clearly demonstrated that of those men and women who claimed to have been able to unlearn their homosexual nature's, were suffering from self-induced repression of their true orientation.

Seran I know you like to tell yourself that choosing not to procreate is your own decision, but the reality is that you have absolutely nothing to offer any potential mate. Solidarity is your destiny because people find you to be repulsive.

I’m sure you are aware that the scientific community is not in total consensus on this subject and you are just choosing to be dishonest. Let me get this straight though… So gender identity is totally one’s own choice, right? But sexual preference can never be someone’s decision? Seems contradictory.

I’m not talking about people praying the gay away or whatever. I’m talking about many examples where someone as a teen or young adult identified as gay, but then discovered later that is not really the case at all. For that person it was a fad, a way of rebelling, or that they just thought they couldn’t get with someone of the opposite sex & settled into homosexual activity. So you are telling me those people are just liars are repressing their true nature?

Does the + part mean pedophiles? Seems like they are being welcomed into that ever expanding club by the far left and are trying to normalize that as acceptable behavior.

Oh and to perhaps steer this back on track to the thread topic, both Ukraine and Russia government don’t like the gays much.

Neither have I. Never gave much thought before on what I would do if I was there, but now that you mentioned it…I don’t believe I could ever rape anyone either under any circumstances. I suppose we’re both too soft for the prison life.

Your total lack of evidenced based support for your argument is telling as usual. Love how you always return to inferences, colloquialisms, and anecdotal evidence to back your ridiculous claims. So go ahead, find yourself an opinion piece by Pastor Billy Bob Hatesahomo to try and back up your unsupported claims. That or just break into a rendition of, "Jesus Loves Me" and rock yourself to sleep on tears.

First of all, this is not an argument nor am I debating you. I clearly stated in a prior post that it was my opinion. You were the one to say that my opinion has been scientifically disproven. That is absolutely a false statement. The reality is, it’s still largely unknown and highly probable homosexuality in humans can be a combination of both genetics and learned behavior.

Since you just refuse to see any discerning evidence or Google yourself, here is just one amongst many: https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...xual-behavior/

In the new study, a team led by Brendan Zietsch of the University of Queensland, Australia, mined several massive genome data banks, including that of 23andMe and the UK Biobank (23andMe did not fund the research). They asked more than 477,000 participants whether they had ever had sex with someone of the same sex, and also questions about sexual fantasies and the degree to which they identified as gay or straight.

The researchers found five single points in the genome that seemed to be common among people who had had at least one same-sex experience. Two of these genetic markers sit close to genes linked to sex hormones and to smell—both factors that may play a role in sexual attraction. But taken together, these five markers explained less than 1 percent of the differences in sexual activity among people in the study. When the researchers looked at the overall genetic similarity of individuals who had had a same-sex experience, genetics seemed to account for between 8 and 25 percent of the behavior. The rest was presumably a result of environmental or other biological influences. The findings were published Thursday in Science.

Despite the associations, the authors say that the genetic similarities still cannot show whether a given individual is gay. “It’s the end of the ’gay gene,’” says Eric Vilain, a geneticist at Children’s National Health System in Washington, D.C., who was not involved in the study.
