What part of the gay lifestyle offends you?

[justanothervoice]

I'll put this out as a form and give everyone lots of choices.
Everyone is different and we don't always share the same opinions on everything but everyones opinion is valid and they are entitled to it.
So pick the statement that reflects the way you feel.
I'll list everything I have read on boards and heard.
Maybe you can add some things.

This might be a first, everyone seems to be voting the same.

[SUZANNE]

Gosh, more than one answer. I'll just go for the one that bugs me the most.

[Andi]

One thing, though, the responses available are really more about the Gay political agenda than the Gay lifestyle.

[justanothervoice]

Andi, do you want me to add another answer?, I'll be happy to edit it in.

[Smaug]

What offends me is people passing homosexuality off as a "lifestyle". It isn't. It's a sexual perversion like any other.

[justanothervoice]

Smaug, I had not thought of that answer.

[Wlyonmackenzie]

I really have no opinion on socially adjusted gay people...most are civil people and respect the sensitivities of their neighbors and do not go out of their way to offend them....but if we are talking about the 10% who ride this obnoxious political agenda for minority power brokering and personal profit, well, you don't have enough reasons down here why I hold this kind of undermining 5th columnist subversion/perversion in disrepute.

It's actually neither. It's a sexual orientation. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Bingo.

So their perversion is given rights and equality. Next up, pedophiles will be wanting to marry children and they'll follow directly in the footsteps of the gays.

Perversions do not deserve special treatment anymore than redheads deserve special treatment. Well, maybe I would give redheads a few special rights

I don't accept the premise of the question. There is no more of a "gay lifestyle" than a "straight lifestyle".

[concan]

I'm missing the option

ALL OF IT

so I opted for the SSM, adoption etc one.

But honestly, I could do without any of their garbage. Whatever they practice in their bedrooms or homes or whatever is their problem (and it truly is a problem).. but I don't want to hear or see any of the crap.

[SUZANNE]

What I find obnoxious is the premise that if you don't agree, you're some kind of bigot/hater/fascist/Nazi/White-Supremacist/Anti-Christ/insert-epithet-here

And you don't deserve to work as a teacher/nurser/counsellor/doctor, whatever.

Homosexuality is a real stupid life choice. To me, that makes it a lifestyle. This is AIDS day and if you want to get rid of AIDS, get rid of homosexuals.

Yes, but we need to make the rules again and demand that a person gets hired who discriminates against homosexuals. After all, we're paying their bills.
