i don't like homosexuality because it contributes to a decline of population, and therefore contributes to the threat of western culture extinction.

but on that note, i don't like couples who choose not to have children even more. IMO, if you're financially capable, it becomes your duty to procreate.

i would be in favor of gay couples being able to adopt kids if it's determined through interviews that they'd be acceptable parents.

to put it simply, i don't like the relatively declining birthrate of western culture, and seek a means to fix that, but not at the expense of the state.

The global birthrate is not a cause for concern the world is over populated if anything we need less births.

Also what about gay couples that adopt? Or have a child via surrogate?

It's to point out how retarded that prejudice is IMO, most homophobes I know don't like homosexuals because they think that they will try to sleep with them

Umm, you need to check your retardphobia at the door. People who constantly use the word "retarded" to describe someone or something as stupid is just insulting to mentally challenged people and just shows their own insecurity with their own intellect. People that use the word "retarded" are probably closeted retards themselves...wait...what?

That is the most retarded thing I've ever heard.

Interesting, but in the UK it's a retardedly common word that is used for a lot of things.

That is the most retarded thing I've ever heard.

Homophobe should be reserved for people who fears gays. Sure, out of that fear they sometimes assault the gays.

I suggest a new word for intense dislike of homosexuals. Lets call it homosexist.

In all honesty i think that hostility toward gay people comes out of ignorance and fear of the unknown.

Basically same as your definition. What others could there be?

Well my point is that it encompasses sexualities that include homosexuality, like bisexuality, which for some it doesn't for some the definition is purely homo only. As a result, using my definition a gay person could be a homophobe for hating bisexuals but using others that could not be the case.

I'm one of those.

Once you've had "same sex sex," you're gay. You may not have an actual preference as to the sex of your partner, but if you've had gay sex...you're gay. Period.

LOL that's a strange definition you have there. So if a gay guy happens to rape you, you are now gay? Good to know.

It's fairly widely accepted nowadays that sexuality for most people is a broad spectrum with heterosexuality at one end and homosexuality at the other end and most people aren't at either extreme end of this spectrum. What defines one as hetero or homo isn't who they have or have not slept with but who they are physically sexually attracted to.

The stereotype of people who "experimented" in college then decided they were not gay is I believe probably true for quite a few people out there.

Agreed his definition is bizzare, if I were to follow it then I know a fuck load of lesbians out there that need to be informed of their sexuality.

I think a homophobe is someone that often calls someone else homosexual, if they are or aren't. I.e. A person that constantly calls others gay, homosexual, etc. I think homophobia is pretty wide set in American and many global cultures. The US govt recently put out a PSA against using the word to describe something which is stupid.

I think bigots are just good old fashioned bigots, and should be labeled as such. Homophobia makes it almost sound credible, those bigots don't deserve that many syllables. Some bigots are also afflicted by homophobia, but that is usually the least of their mental derangements. In my mind homophobia can exist without the hatred or resentment of homosexuals.

stop using gay as stupid? that's stupid. gay has had many meanings throughout the years. to say "no it means this now" is just plain idiotic. i will continue to use the word gay to describe super lame things and still have absolutely no ill will towards anyone for their sexuality.

Only idiots who care nothing of global standards of living, and or the environment to any degree, think it's not overpopulated.

"Rape" is rarely about sex...even though it does involve sexual activity. If a person is raped by a member of their own sex, it's not gay on the part of the rapee...but probably is on the part of the rapist.

Most folks who have "experimented" once or twice don't consider themselves bisexual...perhaps they were curious as you say...and found they really didn't like it...and never did it again.
I've tried red wine...and don't like it...so I can't consider myself a wino...so I'll allow the possibility that someone who tried gay sex and didn't like it...may not be gay...but I'm not gonna bend over in front of them.

No shit. The planet is so heavily overpopulated that it's not funny.

Why the fuck do people seem to think that unless a place is populated like NYC, Tokyo, or L.A., it's underpopulated?

The planet only has so much "carrying capacity" before we grossly overload it's resources, and things start going to shit quickly.
Maybe the " The Planet is Not Overpopulated" folks should be the first ones chosen for the new Soylent Green factory.

lol you're a moron. global standards of living are raising every day. they would raise faster if we didn't put limits on ourselves like idiots(fucking hippies). electricity? everyone could have it. food? we already make enough to feed everyone, it's about getting it to them. utilized land? still a shitload left we haven't utilized. Please Locut0s, we're no where close to being overpopulated. your dumbass just believes that shit because you have some monsterous ego that thinks you deserve to be here more than anyone else, i mean why else haven't you killed yourself yet? survival of the species man, think of the children and kill yourself.
