Yes, Daddio, that was a good respoonse to a somewhat exaggerated point. I'm certainly not advocating gay sex as a war remedy. Actually, I would personally go to great lengths to avoid being fucked in the ass. But if other people wouldn't I don't have a problem with that.
All I was saying is that there is a reason homosexual proclivities evolved, andf to say that they are therefore unnatural is not true. Of courese, lots oif other crap evolved too, not all of which we have to follow today. Some things that have evolved are wrong and selfish and shoulkd be avoided. The point is that I don't see how homosexuality fits into this categorty., Exactly whom does it harm, after all? : DADDIO: Whoa, slow down there Sam. I'm aware of the animal kingdom claim and I don't doubt that there is SOME truth to it. The point I was making with Nikhil was that fighting is very common between homosapiens in sexually active relationships whether they be gay or straight, therefore his claim that "you cannot war with what you screw" is rather ludicrous and somewhat humorous when I hearken back to relationships gone awry.
: I'll take this opportunity to make some other points as well.
: 1) The wars with the direst consequences are generally not the ones carried out between two people. A war remedy better have something to say about international and intertribal relationships. Nikhils "natural" remedy does not apply where it counts most since its impossible for one country to fuck another country in the ass (except in a purely negative and figurative sense) or for two tribes to stimulate one another's clitoris.
: Perhaps Nikhil would have U.N representatives packing each others fudge once in a while, but, as I've already pointed out, sexual intimacy in today's world can lead to hatred as easily as it can to love and understanding. Just watch Jerry Springer sometime.
: 2) International and tribal wars rage on in spite of a huge and ever expanding homosexual population. Looks like the homo thing isn't having the effect Nikhil would anticipate. Is he saying that there simply aren't enough practicing homosexuals yet? My god, how many is it going to take?! Will the world remain in turmoil until every other third penis is moving in and out of some other guy’s ass? If that's nature then get MY homophobic, exit only, virgin butt the hell out of here.
: 3) As to your assertion above regarding widespread homosexuality amongst vertebrates in general: Can you or someone else back this up with some hard stats? For example: Are you saying that a third of all male lemurs are doing the butt jive or is it more like 2 percent of them have been seen removing foreign objects from each other’s eyes?
: And what about cows? Their lack of proper hardware excludes any significant anal intercourse. And being the docile, nearly catatonic creatures that they are, its difficult to imagine one of them even winking at another. Whatever they’re up to, they’re damned discrete about it. Are they hiding out behind barns in passionate 69 embraces? Are they waiting till farmer Bob goes to bed at night then feeling up each other's utters with trembling, mud caked hooves?
: How about lizards? They have spines, don't they? Did some manic, junkie med student strap one hundred of them into little EEG chairs and observe "significant numbers" of them fantasizing about their same-sex peers dressed in garterbelts and fishnet stockings?
: How in the hell did they measure such a thing?! Please advise.
None.
