Anyhow, I'm just wondering if any of our resident homophobes want to take advantage of this thread to come explain to us all about the "gay agenda", which apparently is the gayification of America. I got three words for you guys: It won't work. It's a stupid conspiracy theory, but hey, come knock yourselves out.


I think this is about as ridiculous as the idea that there's a Mormon conspiracy to take over America, or, heaven forbid - the world. Not that I'm suggesting that you'd entertain this idea.

Your "obvious point" seems completely wrong when viewed in light of the real gay agenda. It sure seems that gay characters are put in TV shows for the precise purpose of eliminating the moral opprobrium that has traditionally attached to homosexual conduct.


This is it exactly.

Your seeing an increase in homosexuality because of the exposure of it as somethign that is normal.

And isn't it interesting that all of this comes on the heels of a deluge of 10 years of pornography. In the 90's it went from beign a dirty little secret to the cool thing to do. Nowadays kids in high school are watching it on their iphones on their lunch breaks with their friends.

Exposure to that much immoral material tears down a persons inhibitions and destroys their sense of right and wrong in regards to sexual behavior. In an unreligious household pop culture often is the meter social views are forged in, and sexual deviancy is now the norm.

Ok, so if all of this (heterosexual) sex exposure is going on in this country, how are there still any gay people left?


If homosexuality is genetic, then it would've bred itself out long ago. Therefore, at best, it's an abberation.

How or why would it have bred itself out long ago?

And you can substantiate this statement, I'm assuming?

1. please prove there has been an increase in homosexuality.

2. please show that society views homosexuality as "normal".

3. please show that the aforementioned increase is because of society seeing homosexuality as normal.

1) has it always been normal to see a pair of bulldykes holding hands and shopping to gether at the grocery store? That is a new experience for me here in the suburbs.

2) I said that it is incresingly presented as such in the media. I didn't say society saw it as such.

You need to get out more. Homosexuality has been around as long as heterosexuality.

50 years ago, Blacks weren't on tv. Now they're as normal as white people. This is a good thing. 50 years ago, gays weren't on tv. Now they're as normal as heterosexuals. This is a good thing.

1 inside cat, 3 outside dogs. I don't do "crazy" well, although I am known as the neighborhood wise woman.

There is evidence for androphilia genes but for gynophilia it is pure speculation at this point.


Good luck ever finding any evidence for gynophilia. I think men are plenty attracted to women. That's the the rate limiting step.
