Legally go for it, in a church no. So I don't know, put whatever you want

Strongly disagree. Human beings were biologically designed for intercourse with members of the opposite sex for reproduction. You mess with the biological reproduction psychology then you have a much higher chance of the child being a homosexual. While I don't mind that, biologically speaking it makes them as useful as a panda that refuses to mate

You must be joking.

Why must I be joking?

Anyone who thinks that Homosexual people should have different rights to Heterosexual people needs a swift kick to the balls/ovaries.

Donating blood...

To the first point, the assumption that you must be joking is because what you said actually doesn't make sense. If a gay couple adopt a child, then how would its 'biological reproduction psychology' (a term which I don't really understand anyway. Do you mean sexual orientation?) be affected? Unless you're suggesting that homosexuality is a learned behaviour, and that be being in an environment with a gay couple the child would be gay?

To the second point, donating blood is something that I absolutely believe gay people should be allowed to do. People can argue all they like about the increased risk of HIV, but the fact is that heterosexual people have just as much chance of contracting the virus as homosexuals. Further to that, blood is tested before it is given to a recipient anyway, so anything wrong with it would be picked up then

OT: Masculine (sex=male/female, gender=masculine/feminine), I am also male
Strongy agree that gay people should be allowed to marry, but like others in this thread I don't think that it really matters if a church says no, marriage doesn't have to have anything to do with religion
Also strongly agree that gay people should be able to adopt, but only as long as they pass the same stringent tests that are applied to straight couples wanting to adopt

I see no reason why sexual orientation should be something that could exclude you from anything

Sexual orientation then. I believe that many people learn homosexuality, that is why it is so much more apparent these days then say 20 years ago. Society has changed that much but the rate of homosexuality has

Blood testing for HIV is much more expensive, it would be inconvenient (it takes a hours to test it, days to send it off and back), impractical and expensive to test every gay person who wants to donate blood. However if you want a high risk of contracting HIV from blood donation then you are more than welcome.

I would argue that the percentage of gay people has not actually increased, it's just that more people admit to it. You have to remember that twenty years ago homosexuality was still illegal in many countries. If you knew you'd go to jail for your sexual orientation then I doubt that many people would freely admit it. Until 1973 homosexuality was considered a mental disorder. The difference between now and then is that research has been conducted, strongly suggesting that homosexuality is not learned, and people have generally become more accepting

Hypothetically, if the rules changed and gay people were allowed to donate blood, but only if each of them was tested for HIV, do you think that every heterosexual person should also be tested?

I wonder how many agree with gay marriages just because it's "tolerant" and cool to do. Don't get me wrong, i support them, but at least in our country people just tend to agree because otherwise they will probably be "gay-bashing assholes".

At least for America, any country that claims freedom or equality can't continue to pick and choose who gets what rights based on their color, beliefs, or behaviors.

Being right wing doesn't necessarily make you homophobic. I'd say I'm right wing and I support equal rights.

However it has increased in countries where it was legal. In the UK it was legal 20 years ago yet the rate of homosexuality has increased massively.

Maybe, but homosexual sex has a much higher chance of contracting HIV each time. So you would literally have to do the test on the same day otherwise they could potentially contract HIV in that short time.
Granted that it is possible with heterosexuals to contract HIV but it is a much less likely probability and most questions rule out the possibility. For example if you are very sexually active with members of the opposite sex you can be denied to donate blood

 

[MasterChief892039]

1. Female
2. Strongly agree. And as long as heterosexual unions are called "marriage", homosexual unions should receive the same title.
3. Strongly agree. No mentally stable person/couple should be denied the right to raise a child of their own if they wish to, regardless of sexual orientation. Besides, what do you think is a better option for a parentless child? Being adopted by a loving same-sex family, or rotting away in a modern-day orphanage?

I dont know what the difference is between strongly agree and just agree... but it's not like I would go to protest on the streets if it was banned...

By that I mean, I don't care what the laws are, but if gay marriage is legalized than good for all the gays!

That's not meant to sound bad ><

lol that was a curveball.

May I ask why you disagree with gay marriage? It's interesting to see a reply like this and I'd love to see some light shed on your opinions.

OT: as for me

Male
Strongly agree
Strongly agree

Well, it's quite a religious thing for me and I am at risk of getting flamed for it, but oh well I'm screwed either way. Sorry but in MY OPINION AND MY VIEW I see marriage as a Holy Matrimony between a man and a woman, while putting aside all the contractual bullshit and financials
(Just in case anyone doesn't notice the big words in bold, this is MY OPINION and I don't speak for everyone and I have a flipping right to it as long as I'm not doing harm to society.)

lol easy there champ. This isn't one of those massive arse-kicking websites that'll shun you or anything for believing what you want to believe. I understand your opinion and I respect it, so just chill out. ^^
