(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Important note: This is a very touchy subject to some people and rightfully so. Whilst negative comments about any given sexuality are OK, pointless and unnecessary bashing of other people's sexuality will not be tolerated. Once you cross this line your post(s) will be deleted and you will be warned, and if you persist you will be punished for flaming. I know this is a very strongly worded warning, however I feel given the thread topic it's utterly necessary.


Anyway, onto the debate itself- sexuality. There are many different labels of sexuality, so I'd thought I'd list them below(largely C/P to save time, if I missed any or falsely described anything let me know):

• Heterosexuality- Is the sexual attraction between members of the opposite sexes such as a man attracted to a woman and vice-versa.
  
• Homosexuality- is the sexual attraction between members of the same sexes such as man to man and woman to woman.
  
• Bisexuality- Is the sexual attraction to both the opposite and same sexes such as man to man and man to woman, woman to woman and woman to man.
  
• Asexuality- Is also known as nonsexuality which is the lack of sexual attraction and sexual interest towards others.
  
• Polysexuality- Is the sexual attraction to more than one gender but do not wish to be known as bisexual as it implies that there are only two binary sexes, do not confuse this with pansexuality ('pan' meaning all) and ('poly' meaning many).
  
• Pansexuality- Is the sexual attraction towards people regardless of gender also known as omnisexuality. Some pansexuals refer to themselves as gender blind as to them gender is insignificant in determining whether they will be sexually attracted to others.
  
• Transexualism- Is when a person identifies themselves as a certain sex different from their own biological one. For example a person may be born male, and is uncomfortable with their gender as a male and changes to a female, or vice-versa.
  

Personally I'm heterosexual, however I have no problems with other people expressing their own sexuality and being who they really are.

Feel free to comment below and be honest, then hopefully this thread can be used to maturely discuss sexuality away from the nonsense you so often see elsewhere

I heard it was closer to a tiny chance up until the third or fourth generation of inbred kids, which is I'd imagine fairly unlikely to ever occur.

I really don't see anything wrong with it, but as long as a child isn't born from it it's OK. I'd feel sorry for the child wondering why his/her parents are brother/sister son/mother dad/daughter.

Moved to the debate section (new intellectual discussion).

Why should that matter? What about kids with gay parents or black parents?

Whats wrong with black parents?

And gay parents cant be all that bad, if you can raise someone without having any kind of violence, then congratulations your automatically a parent.

Again im not condoning same sex parents raising a child, but i am raising this question one more time, whats wrong with black parents?

That's exactly my point, nothing is wrong with having black parents, gay parents or incestuous parents. I merely compared them to show that there have been times in our history where restricting the right to raise a child for certain groups would have been detrimental to societal progress. As far as incestuous relationships go that's another example, after gay parents and black parents (or just about every other 'minority' ever).

I see you dodging my question with just another question, also race or sex has absolutely nothing to do with societal progress, human beings are crazy and absolutely nothing can influence their behavior as parents, being black gay or straight wont do jack squat diddly to affect that.

Using them as a comparison is bad considering that their lives are about as stable as the flip of a coin on an active volcano. Its not a question of who makes a better parent, but what traits we should be looking for in someone to put our trust in to raise children. Lol minorities huh? I suppose that being an upperclass heterosexual or even an upperclass bisexual makes you a better candidate to raise children due to "awareness?"

I think you've completely misread both of my posts - I'm in favour of gay parents, incestuous parents, and whatever other type of persecuted parents you can think of. I compared them to other minorities in the past to show that things get better, but that can't happen if you restrict their right to raise children.

What if the child has a negative thought about their parents being gay? Nowadays most kids use the term "gay" to disrespect a topic. And I'm sure it'd be even worse if the kid went to school and had to live everyday knowing that his/her parents are gay.
