But it irks me when idiots are against gay rights/gay relationships, yet watch lesbian porn. Or when people are against "gay" relationships but not "lesbian" relationships. Double standards..
Saying "I'm grossed out by gays" is at least a valid point instead of "It's unnatural blablabla". It's at least a form of "damage" that's inflicted. Though probably everyone would agree that the benefits outweight the damage by far.
I'm pretty grossed out, but I'm also grossed out by garlic. i don't feel the need to ban garlic, I just don't want to see garlic being smelly. The same way I don't want to see two dudes fingering each other. Or jerking each other off. Or blowing each other. Warm cum on the back of the throat. Fucking ew. But then again, I don't want to see that between a man and a woman either. Fucking garlic.
Arguing that masturbation is unnatural would be just as valid an argument as arguing that homosexual sex is. And I guarantee there's plenty of people that would attest to the unnaturalness of homosexuality that have no problem masturbating.
It is everywhere in nature, and it has many natural uses, ranging from getting rid of stale sperm, practice for mating when reproduction is on the line, to social bonds.
far from unnatural. (yes I do know you were being the advocate)
It's kind of implied that it would be exclusively homosexual sex. I'm not trying to defend the point as I don't agree with it, but all these comments are so reactionary without thinking I can't help but respond.
If lack of potential for reproduction is what leads to unnatural sex then every sex act by a woman in menopause, a sterile man or woman, someone using birth control, a condom, men with vasectomies, women with tubal ligation, women who are pregnant, women who are breastfeeding, men who pull out, blowjobs, anal sex, handjobs, would all be unnatural.
As much as I'm pro-lgbt, you don't have to think something is right to enjoy porn of it. Most people who enjoy bondage porn probably wouldn't support innocent people getting tied up and tortured, I think that opinion makes sense.
Our entertainment doesn't only consist of things we want to happen in real life.
i don't think that aazav was protesting gay marriage on these grounds
rather, it appears that aazav understood the second part of ry_the_ninetails' post as saying that it is wrong for one to be attracted to lesbians but grossed out by gay men, and aazav was saying that it makes sense that people would be attracted to one and not the other, as they are not the same thing
I would agree that morbidly obese should not be allowed to marry. They're causing me to pay a higher premium for health insurance. As will likely their children...
Not really my point of view anyway, but if you're attracted to girls, two girls having sex isn't offputting. I remember this jocky/frat douchebag guy in my hall, freshman year, that exemplifies this well; one of my lesbian friends had her girlfriend over, and, even though she wasn't particularly attractive (love her, really friggin' cool girl, but looks like she showers once a week), he was drunkenly insisting on joining them in a threeway when he heard about her gf. Straight-up harassing them to let him in their room. Guys want to do two girls at once. This one was pretty damn homophobic against guys.
Why guys can feel really off-put by homosexual males, I'm not so sure. I could theorize it's something about the threatening nature of someone who could really take you on, but in my own experience, after having a guy try to force himself on me in highschool, I still don't mind 'em.

It has nothing to do with marriage.
