People are afraid of what they don't understand. You love who you love. You are attracted to , who you are attracted to. To sentence someone to a life of misery (living a lie) is just ignorance.

It should be against the law everywhere, because if everyone turns into a gay how do we procreate?

You can't "turn into" a homosexual.

you realize there are homosexuals in animal species right? you do also realize that there are species in the world where there are both males and females and yet neither of them have it on and they're perfectly fine with continuing the species. besides, no one said anything about everybody becoming homosexual.

Homosexuality is kind of weird to other people so they make it illegal just to be mean.

I can guess because it is not natural. And i goes against the perpetuation of mankind.

Who is to define what is "natural"?

Anatomy... and the purpouses of "holes" in a body. Also cancer. I guess.

Well, no, it is a fact that the natural relationship is between a man and a woman - hence reproduction. I personally don't see anything wrong with homosexuality, though. They're no different from anybody else except for the obvious fact of not being able to reproduce.

Having two noses isn't natural.
Having 37 fingers isn't natural.
Having a tooth in the middle of your tongue isn't natural.
However, love is natural.
Being gay is not an irregularity. Being gay is not different. Being gay is not wrong. Being gay is having sexual attractions to those of the same sex. Falling in love with one of the same sex.
Love.
Are you saying that love is not natural?

Except for the fact that they do not help the prosurvival of our race. Example: have them all go on an island and just do what they do without any natural actions. In eighty years you will have an island of skeletons.

@Tissue: It seems you are mixing physical atributes and deformations with mental thaughts and actions. Two entirely different things.

It depends on if the country inhibits religious law as a common practice. The Bible forbids homosexuality, and countries that hold religious law in extremely high regard will obviously have gays outlawed.
