Homosexuality is About Survival, NOT SEX.

I found this youtube video very useful for gaining scientific insight into being a gay man and it is yet another resource for proving that the misconceptions and delusions in regard to homosexuality are a by-product of religions and the government brainwashing society.

I learnt a lot from this video and I hope you do too

But I also think there was some stereotyping going on in his speech too. Gay men and women come in all shapes and sizes, but also they come with a wide variety of personalities and dispositions. Not all gay men are the nurturing and emotionally intelligent person he described his son as.

And hell, one of the baddest mofos I've ever met in terms of fighting and eagerness to fight is a gay man.

I always get a chuckle when someone (even some here on DU) portray gay men as being slight of build, small, and weak. Have you ever been to a gay bar? There's some big dudes in gay bars, and there's a whole lot of guys that seem to really be into physical fitness and their physiques. But maybe now I'm stereotyping.

But overall, I think it's important to understand the genetics of traits like homosexuality and this speaker makes some good points and some points probably not supported by science.

…was, to borrow a phrase from Messrs. Pratchett and Gaiman, gayer than a treeful of monkeys on nitrous oxide. Literally - they were a 300-man unit of 150 couples.
