Um, no.

Post #350,602 by mmoffitt 11/14/11 4:53:19 PM Reply	Um, no. Is there some dispute that the overwhelming number of humans is heterosexual that I am unaware of? I don't give a flip what anyone does, but calling homosexual behavior normal behavior in humans is insane.

And not necessarily because its textbook incorrect...its the negative connotation it brings..as much as it would be if you used "abnormal" to counter "normal". Sure, understanding today's complex world of the future is a little like having bees live in your head. But...there they are.

Post #350,607 by drook 11/14/11 5:00:00 PM Reply	Yes, there is a dispute Sexual preference, as has already been stated in this thread, is a spectrum, not a binary setting. To say that "the overwhelming number of humans is heterosexual" requires that "is heterosexual" is binary: you are or you aren't. You're going to have to prove that premise before you can argue from it. -- Drew
Post #350,612 by mmoffitt 11/14/11 5:04:38 PM Reply	So, your conjecture is... That it is a minority of human beings who are "purely heterosexual" and have no proclivities for members of their own sex, barn animals, what have you. Is that it? That's a two-boggle for the price of one.

Post #350,619 by mmoffitt 11/14/11 5:12:53 PM Reply	Consequence of the argument you made. YOUR claim was that I was wrong to submit that heterosexual behavior was the norm. The point I was making to YOU was that you could throw in every single other type of sexual behavior known among humans and heterosexual behavior WOULD STILL be present in greater numbers than all the rest. Making it the norm. HTH.

Post #350,626 by crazy 11/14/11 5:20:06 PM Reply	Go read my book quote and you know you'd be wrong since heterosexuality has nothing to do with the furthering of the species.
Post #350,632 by beepster 11/14/11 5:39:41 PM Reply	Re: Go read my book quote Now you're "over-smarting"..same as that piece. At is most basic, sex is all about procreation. The problem is, it feels good ;-) Sure, understanding today's complex world of the future is a little like having bees live in your head. But...there they are.
