There is no "they." This is not a news article. This is an EDITORIAL. This is a (very well done) piece by ONE MAN.

But when I post links "by one man", the guy gets railed. Remember my Germ Theory link that was beat up on because it was theorized by a "physicist". Until I pointed out that he partnered with a evolutionary biologist. Whether it's "well done" I guess may depend on perspective.

There is an ENORMOUS difference between a man writing an op/ed political piece, and somebody presenting non-peer-reviewed "scientific" research as the definitive word on an issue. I thought you had gone to college. No?

I really didn't even look a the by-line. So I just read it as a news report.

So, rather than continuing to defend your response, why not just say that you didn't realize it was an op/ed and that your reply was not accurate in representing it. Or, is honesty just not your particular cup of tea?

As far as fanning the flames of bigotry, why do we need more than one thread about this. There have to have been about 4 of them now. I seems like there's an attempt to light a fire for homonormativity.

I'm sorry. Are you saying that the political news item that has dominated every news channel and network news program for a week is not worthy of discussion? Which is certainly your right. However, if you don't want to discuss it, why are you posting on the threads?

And I might say that they are just men out looking for instant gratification just like my link said. I would probably go hump a balloon before I run in a bathroom for some anonymous guy to apply suction to my penis, but hey, to each his/her own. Or some men just have a compulsion for that kind of thing as another link indicated. And I have stated several times that I don't think a man has to be "gay" to have sex with men. Considering the variety and pervasiveness of fetishes and paraphilas and the fact that men dominate the concept, some men might like the way the disinfectant cakes smell and form a connection with sex. That's just how effed I think the male sexual psyche can be.
"I would probably go hump a balloon before I run in a bathroom for some anonymous guy to apply suction to my penis, but hey, to each his/her own."

And I agree. However your other posts belie the attitude you now present. You do NOT believe 'to each his/her own.' You denigrate, demean and dehumanize people who do not share your sexual proclivities.

Conservatism: Self-centered mean-spiritedness fueled by ignorance and misguided self-importance.
