Being gay is not a matter of personal choice. No more than being heterosexual is. You never sat down one day and decided that you were going to be straight. It just happened. So for gays, why should it be that they deliberately set out to wrong-foot themselves? Why would they deliberately want to forego the joy of having children, a family and leave their progeny on the face of the earth when they die?
Puberty is the time when sexual orientation makes itself clearly known. That happens a lot earlier than when I was a young man. It's at about 12 years old now, I believe. But at 12 a child still does not have the capacity to deal with hormones and emotions that go with them, I agree, so there is some common ground between us. But I rapidly part company with you when you imply that there is an element of choice in being gay. There is not. And if you insist on it, then I claim that my experience of life, in this respect, is more valid and truer than yours. Gays never brainwashed me, and I was a virgin until I was 28. It made no difference. I have never once had a heterosexual desire in my life. Nor is this because I wanted to be gay. On the contrary. Your so called god, if he exists, is responsible for me and my orientation.
However, let me tell you that I consider my life more decent that that of many straights. I have never had a divorce and have lived in a monogamous relationship for 36 years. I don't expect that to change at this stage of life, save by the death of one of us.
I have no agenda but to live a useful life in my community where we are fully accepted as partners. But this is Europe. Not the barbaric fundamentalist states of the US. Here, at last, a vile history has been put to rest and gay people can live decently and with dignity.
Now take your lies and venom, Patches, and choke on them slowly and painfully. And with your last breath let us know if you see god!
