Why do people get so hung up on gays anyway?

A Catholic, especially one representing a papacy, simply can't support divorce.

But that isn't related to why people don't like homosexuals.

@Raw: I don't hate it. I say my understanding is that anal sex is sinful, because the kids these days bring homosexual rights up a lot.

And I'm not insane. I just want to fix an institution that's been inadvertently turned into an asymmetrical Prisoner's Dilemma. That's off-topic, so someone needs to start "Divorce" for me to elaborate.

Unless you're weird like me and thought sex was just for recreational purposes and had no idea how babies were formed other than they come from a mother and father.

So, I guess when you're not used to the idea of recreational sex, it can, not compute, in a way.

Yes! I mean, sexual intercourse is lots of fun, but it's ordered toward an end. It's not pointless recreation.

Wait...how are these correlated?

Well one way a homosexual couple can have is anally, and well, that don't fly.

@snailbait: It's a pretty minor sin, so I'd probably never have cause to mention it all if "Equality demands heterosexual and homosexual sex be treated the same!" wasn't a current brain bug.

Er...is this on-topic? Because I don't think it is.

@Rottweiler Asking why heteros campaign for the benefit of nonheteros is like asking why white people helped out black people during the Civil Rights Movement.

I can see sex being considered negatively when it comes to recreation for people of any orientation because of things like ST Ds and nothing more. There's protective measures and this thing called control which while not perfect keeps me from being endeared to the "Don't have sex for recreation. Especially not gay sex" position.

Except when it is. I have sex as pointless recreation quite often, and through modern technology and a healthy dose of common sense, it is safe for me to do so, even with multiple partners.

I'm also pretty certain that a lot of the anti-gay slant comes from the fact that a lot of conservative types tend to be against "promiscuity" on general principal, and that it's easiest to find LGBT to point out. Before the LGBT rights movement, they outlawed polygamy because they didn't like that the Mormons did it. Granted, some of the Mormon-type cults took it too far, but I don't think that outlawing poly-whatever marriages was a good move.

One man, one woman style thinking affects more than gay people, you know.

If sex isn't meant to be recreational then I'm doing it wrong.

How about sex not being pointless fun but instead a way of bonding and increasing intimacy and love between two persons? I too dislike the "pointless nookie" mentality, those who practice it just don't come off as emotionally healthy to me (as for me, I am 22 since the 12 of January... and... well, I guess I'll start using Great Teacher Onizuka's catchphrase *breaks down in a heap and cries*).

Well, anal sex is a problem that might have contributed to male-gay problems. If you don't do it properly, you're prolly gonna mess up and tear something. Hell, even if you do do it right, you still need to be careful.

@Salad Why does anyone need to be against or for a certain sex act? We're talking about campaigning for the rights of a certain group here.

I'm not one who would have it just for recreational purposes and instead bonding and intimacy, but I'm not someone who wouldn't have sex with friends. I have no problems with people who just have it for recreation or those who are prostitutes as a whole and see no reason to.

I'm not fond of prostitution or licentious behavior. I think sex should be only for A) reproduction B) emotional bonding/intimacy. Of course, I can't speak with experience or interest in the subject, but that's my statement.

Oh, come on, if people wanted to sell their hugs, would you stop them?

...

Actually even that much is kinda disgusting...

I'd sell hugs to Japanese otaku if it proved profitable enough, I lived near them, and it didn't disturb the girl I like. And lead to my rape.

Yeah, some people do need intimicay badly, just like others need an ear who listens. In that sense, prostitution is no worse than psychoanalysis. In fact, it could be sold as a form of therapy.

I see a market opening...

Prostitution has a lot of problems with it, not just related to moral or ethical issues, which is a legitimate concern nonetheless. Calling it healthy is something new though. :V
