All that you are doing is throwing names at people. Labels.
Read what I said. Read what I said where I stated that I actively wish people could live life as they wish, and allow others to do so as well.
But what we have here is a situation where the LGBTQ community is choosing to ram the topic down the throat of those who choose to live their lives as they see fit.
Thanksgiving Day 2016, the Macy's parade featured many broadway musical set pieces. One of which was Kinky Boots. While it did not bother me or create a situation where I was uncomfortable in things it forced me to address with my children, I have friends who it would have made very uncomfortable in that situation. Friends that are very religious.
When California first enacted the no smoking inside public area laws (like bars and restaurants), I was in San Francisco. The way they handled it was wonderful. There were places that people smoked, and places where people didn't smoke. If you wanted to smoke, or were ok working in such an environment, you went there. Otherwise, you went to the nonsmoking establishment. Nobody called police. Nobody said new laws were needed. Adults handled it in a rather adult manner. They behaved like adults.
Oh, and funny again how you call me close minded (without knowing who or what I am). When I lived in San Francisco, I loved the openness and the people.
What we have and are dealing with today are adults with the maturity of children. Who want what they want without considering anyone else's needs, wants, or rights.
Yepp, I'm close minded. Yepp. Uh-huh.

I know what you mean. It's like black people. If you let 'em sit at the front of the bus, next thing you know, they wanna drink from the "whites only" fountain. Then they'll want to be able to get in the same colleges as the white folks and have access to the same jobs. Where's it gonna end?
Your an idiot in comparing this. Black people are born black and should be proud, they never tried to be who they werent. A boy growing up to be a cross dresser, now thats a different story. I wouldnt compare a black mans struggle with a cross dressing mans struggle lmao, pffft people these days lol
Do you know the difference between gays, trans and 'crossdressers'?
And...I think I may know the answer to this already but...do you believe being gay is a choice?
A trans is a cross dresser. A transgender woman will never have sex with a straight man. Trans are pretty much gay men who want men or lesbian woman who want women. Keep it simple.
I really don't think there is a single sentence you typed here that was factually accurate.
Crossdresser != transsexual. Straight men have had sex and even married transgender women. Trans people can be gay or straight; sometimes they even switch preferences when they go through reassignment. Keep it factual.
I love all this ability to flip flop....When I go to the gym and need to shower I'm a lesbian and use the girls locker room.....When I go to the amusement park and don't want to wait in line...im handicapped. When I don't agree with my boss and the way he treated me....I'm a minority who is being discriminated against......
And best of all.....When I can't find anything else to be a victim over.....I'm gay
Way to invent an argument I never made out of thin air. Can't think of a rebuttal? Strawman that bitch! It's the ATS way. That way you don't have to ever challenge your thinking and can just derail a difficult topic with nonsense instead.

I think the questions is why do Gay people need scientific proof of a "GAY GENE"?
I mean come on, if they don't find the scientific gene that makes them gay will they all then start questioning their gayness? I mean if science is not able to find a "gay Gene" are all gays going to finally admit it was just their choice to be gay??
I'm curious is anyone on here who is gay wishes to address this questions....
WHAT IF THERE IS NO GAY GENE????

The field of epigenetics is quickly growing and with it the understanding that both the environment and individual lifestyle can also directly interact with the genome to influence epigenetic change

It should end right about there- right? Equal rights? Isn't that the whole idea?
But it didn't. That's not enough anymore. That's where OP was going with this.
Soon they'll be demanding special scholarships to pay for education, special tax breaks, and other special treatment.
Just like anyone who isn't a middle aged, straight white guy gets.
They'll want special classes in schools to teach children about their special needs, and how its okay to be special, too.
They'll want laws put in place so that corporations have to keep a certain percentage of employees who identify as aircraft carriers- the same way corporations have laws saying they need a certain percentage of black employees now.
I live in a state where until recently, there were almost no black people. Anyone who happened to be black could get a job at any nationally owned business-even if they were under-qualified- because those companies have to keep a quota or face fines. In my life, I know for certain I was turned down for a position even though I was better qualified just for this reason.
IMO, they're all just special needs people and want to be treated as such. They can do what they want- but expecting me to change is going too far.

Next is going to be sex with children. Let's face it children enjoy sex and in an open and fair society 5he right to have sex won't be denied them.
