Why can't homosexual and heterosexual sex be 'right'? Why does one being 'right' make the other 'wrong'?

Gu£st, what's it like living in a world where things are so black and white?

Why is it your concern what consenting adults do in their bedrooms?

well I think that it depends what you mean by right. no, everyone SHOULDN'T have homosexual sex because everyone is not a homosexual. but clearly homosexual sex is right for gay people becaus ethay're gay. so why would they act straight if they weren't? I don't think it's fair to call it right or wrong because it may be right for someone and wrong for someone else. I think the thought of 2 guys getting it on is gross but I've slept wth both men and women and it was completely "right" for me. so why should I call gay men gross when they were just doing the same for themselves? to each his own, right?

Well geez,

Again, if this were the late 1800's or early 1900's we would be having this same conversation except instead of asking if homosexuality sex was right. The question would be is interracial sex right?

If interracial sex is right, it means that having sex with the same race is wrong.

There is no seperation between the two topics. Homosexual sex is the interracial topic of it's time.

You say that it says in the bible that homosexuas having sex in a sin. People back in the day said that interracial relationships were a sin and quoted scripture from the bible to validate their beliefs.

If this were back inthe day. My wife and I would be commiting a sin by having an interracial relationship and then I would be told that Jesus loves me, but hates the sin I'm commiting.

I'll say it again. I don't understand homosexuality. I don't understand how a man can be attracted to another man or a woman can be attracted to anoter woman......well I can understand the latter a little better , But I also don't care one bit.

People want to be happy. That's all we want. That's my goal at least and if gay people are happy and in love, well good for them!! More power to them!!

and I'm so sick of hearin that being gay is a choice from Christians!!

IT IS NOT A CHOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did anyone choose to be heterosexual? Did you weigh your options and then decide to be heterosexual? OF COURSE NOT!!!!!

You're just naturally attracted to the opposite sex. YOU DID NOT CHOOSE TO BE STRAIGHT! So to say that they chose to be gay means that you chose to be straight.

See here is the flaw in your theory that gay people choose to be gay.

People try to live their lives with using the path of least resistance. People try not to add probelms to their lives, BUT to strip the problems away.

So what kind of sense does it make for a person to go against their "so called natural instincts of being attracted to the opposite sex" so that they can choose to be gay? It doens't make sense!

Why would anyone put that kind of burden on their shoulders of being gay and dealing with bigotry, unless they were naturally attracted to the same sex?!

Then I'm sure you'll say that they can be gay as long as they don't practice being gay. That's like someone back in the day saying "You can be attracted to a person of a different race as long as you don't practice sex with them."

You know there are many more problems in this world right now that need attention. Children are starving. Crime is escalating. Wars are happening etc.

I have no time to worry about if a man and man or woman and woman are getting jiggy with it.

Eric

What people do on their own time and in their own homes is none of my business.

Just because one person doesn't agree with another person's lifestyle doesn't mean that they are bad or your lifestyle is wrong, it just means it isn't how others may choose to live their lives.

Why would I have homosexual sex? I'm a heterosexual.

Do you think that sex between two women is wrong, or just sex between two men? I know lots of men that think that 2 men engaging in sexual relations is horrible, but they would run to the front of the line to see two women doing it.

"You know there are many more problems in this world right now that need attention. Children are starving. Crime is escalating. Wars are happening etc."

well said.

Don't be stupid. One is not mutually exclusive to the other.

ALL forms of sex (we're talking vagina/anal/oral) between adults of either or both genders is "right".

No, this does not include bestiality or pedophelia, don't even go there. Sex is meant to happen between two consenting ADULT humans.

What two grown adults do in their bedroom is none of my concern. I do not cringe seeing two ladies or men walking down the street hand in hand. I go "Aww, look, they've found a soul-mate".

Personally, gay sex is far safer than straight sex in the sense that there is NO risk of pregnancy.

Sex is great!!!

lets all just hush up and leave the poor gay/lesbian/bi/straight people alone for god sakes...

This is a good point though. Some tend to make the argument that homosexuality is ok but homosexual sex isn't.

I think that's ridiculous, as part of being a homosexual is to have sex with other homosexuals.

That's like saying, it's ok to be blonde, as long as you dye your hair black. If you don't dye your hair black, you're sinning.

What if both hetero and homo sexual sex are wrong.

Then I certainly don't like whomever made the rules.

Sex is great!!!

You're improperly dichotomizing sex.

Sex serves two very important functions.
A) Procreation. We need to reproduce. That's logical.
B) A means of feeling close and creating an intimate bond that cannot be created any other way.

Though I think they're both equally as important, different people have different opinions on that. Many people see the procreation side of sex as the important part... Many fundamentalist Christians for example, see sex as ONLY a means of procreation. That's fine.

Others, though, see sex as a means of intense bonding. I, personally believe in purpose. I think sex, hormones and orgasming has a purpose beyond simply procreating.... it also bonds two people together. **WE NEED MORE OF THIS INTENSE BONDING THE WORLD!** Homosexual sex is filed under this category, and, to me, therefore, makes it completely ok.

I would like to say, too, that sex is abused. I do not like the rampant sex I see in the homosexual and heterosexual communities alike. When sex does not meet the standard either for procreation (by responsible, consenting adults) or creating an intense bond between two consenting adults, I believe it is being misused.

Conclusion: If sex is being responsibly had by two people who want to create an intimate bond, or for simply procreation between two consenting adults, it's right.

I don't like whoever made the rules either.

"ALL forms of sex (we're talking vagina/anal/oral) between adults of either or both genders is "right". "

If all sex is right or that sex in itself is the right thing to do, does that mean those who choose to remain chaste should be victimized and imprisoned?

No it's their choice to not have sex.

You ask some really out there questions

Why?

Excellent analogy!

Nope. Why? Having sex or not having sex, it's all "right" because none of these aspects is mutually exclusive of the other.

That's correct Guest... it's ALL OKAY. Abstinence is OK. Gay sex is OK. Straight sex is OK!!! They are NOT mutually exclusive. Sex and abstinence from sex is OKAY among consenting adults - and some teens who are mature enough. I say "adult" but it's really about maturity, mental and physical.
