How is sexual orientation different than race

Aug 29, 2014 by GayJohnny
Both are involuntary and both result in discrimination

Just because an analogy makes you uncomfortable, doesn't mean it's wrong

but ignorant people don't know that and they think it's a choice or they do know it's not a choice but just don't care

Actually being gay is a choice, you could choose to date/marry the same sex but you can also choose to stay single.

Being gay is not about sex, it's about feelings and attractions connorfitz15

connorfitz15 Being gay means that you are attracted to the same sex. Just because you aren't dating someone does not mean you aren't gay.

No one has made that comparison.

All what was said was that the majority of religious people aren't homophobic and that disagreeing with homosexuality isn't necessarily homophobic. Hating people because of their sexuality is. He made the comparison to race (poorly) to attempt to validate his self pity.

bigbrotherfan132, well my point just went over your head, when I say stay single I mean choosing not to act on there attraction, yes I do know a lady who did that and it worked fine for her, so ya you can have a choice.

connorfitz15 and people can choose not to act on their attractions as a Straight individual and stay single however take a look at the animal kingdom and tell me it's natural not to act on it and engaging in same-sex behaviors; this is well documented in about 500 species. The cloacal pinchers of male damselflies and dragonflies inflict characteristic head damage to females during sex. A survey of 11 species of damsel and dragonflies has revealed such mating damages in 20 to 80% of the males too, indicating a fairly high occurrence of sexual coupling between males.
