you have your equality and take it forgranted. U aren't second rate citizren of anything. Hetro males have all the power for millenia, time to step aside and let women and gays share in it.
I will try my best not to be rude. I suspected a few posts back that you had a side Feminist agenda, now it is confirmed. Always the fault of hetero males hey? How many families have been destroyed by Women's Liberation's push to get mothers into the workforce? How many fathers have lost custody of their children because they happen to be males? How often are heterosexual males portrayed positively in the media? How often are heterosexual males reported as victims in the media?
Let's face the facts. The world as a whole was a happier and better place before Women's Liberation forced mothers who preferred to stay home and raise their kids into making a career for themselves.

I see your point. I think we should form a straight parade where we all run around half naked and tell everyone of our latest sexual conquests. I am sure the police wouldnt mind.

I just have a quick question. Why can't we all just have a live and let live policy?
Because the only person they are convincing about being gay is 'wrong' are themselves.
The louder they yell, the more they are trying to convince themselves is all...text book stuff.

You missed the point entirely. Im not trying to start a new parade, im talking about how special interest groups have so deeply embedded themselves into politics that they now have special rights that far exceed what people who are not considered to be a part of that particular group are allowed to do, and still they complain.

Ok ill give you one example.
If a gay man were to brutally assault a strait man the gay man would only be charged with assault, EVEN if the only reason for the assault was because the man was strait.
Hate crimes (also known as bias-motivated crimes) occur when a perpetrator targets a victim because of his or her perceived membership in a certain social group, usually defined by racial group, religion, sexual orientation, disability, ethnicity, nationality, age, gender, gender identity, or political affiliation.
If a strait man brutally assaults a gay man, and lets say because he owed him money or something and not because he was gay, all it would take is for the gay man to say it was a gay bashing and all of a sudden it becomes a hate crime and an assault charge. Even if the gay man was evenly matched in size and strength to the strait man.
These issues in society have become a double edged sword. It is the same regarding race. It is ok for a racial minority to pick on a white guy but not vice versa.
What was the old saying, something about a dream and being judged on the content of your character?
# "I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.'"
# "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
# "I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood."
It is not a beneficial trait which would benefit the survival of any species.
Overpopulation does not depend only on the size or density of the population, but on the ratio of population to available sustainable resources, and on the means of resource use and distribution used by that population. If a given environment has a population of 10 individuals, but there is food or drinking water enough for only 9, then in a closed system where no trade is possible, that environment is overpopulated
Dramatic growth since around 1950 coinciding with greatly increased food production as a result of the heavy industrialisation of agriculture (known as the Green Revolution). Population is forecast to carry on growing to 8.9 billion, 9.2 billion, 9.5 billion or perhaps even 11 billion by 2050.
Scientific estimates of the carrying capacity of Earth range between one and two billion people

Did it ever occur to you that this 'gay agenda' might be for equality?
Ok lets try an experiment in equality then.
Go to your local town hall and fill out an application to organize a parade that celebrates millenia of heterosexuality. You will probably be rejected at this point even if you were backed financiallly by many local businessmen.
Say your application is approved, have the people in your parade dressed scantly in questionable apparrel while squirting each other with water guns that resemble genetalia. Allow people to make sexual guesters at each other and even allow for dry humping. Allow the people in your parade to make sexually explicit comments on microphones and loadspeakers.
Now sit back and wait for the police to arrest you and every member of your parade and watch as you and everyone else get charged with extreme public indecentcy.
Equality? Strait, white men dont know what that is anymore. Special interest groups have ensured that we are the biggest minority on the planet.

Now...understand I don't mean you...
But w HAVE as a whole been insensitive
they aren't allowed to marry in most places
they don't share the same rights
we bash them and have for many years...this is sensitive?
Also...Not once did I say I SAW a murder... have actually but I guarantee you it had nothing to do with sexuality...just a quick box cutter to the throat from a man to his wife (and no don't even begin to think I am using that as anti-hetro speech)
Again...where are these people who are gay and saying they are better?
All I have heard thus far from speeches is about equality
If you find one for me...then yes those specific homosexuals are bad and wrong...but then again so are Christians who are better than everyone else...so are Islamists who murder and terrorize...so are...
well heck there is bad in every group around...my own included (Pagans)
the equality IS being withheld...they aren't the same
someone somewhere decided my wife and I are married legally and that somehow makes us better than two girls getting hitched...how disgusting
So do you think the women who demanded suffrage were whiners? How about blacks when they didn't want slavery? Are they whiners when they demanded equality because they were tired of being whipped and chased by hounds?
I know someone is going to tell me not to compare...well let's leave the African American argument out of this then
Women weren't really abused in the same mass manner as blacks...same thing here...homosexuals aren't really abused in mass quantity right? I agree...but the thing is women weren't equal...they weren't allowed jobs and weren't allowed to vote...they were baby makers
Gays aren't equal either...can they vote? hell yes...can they buy a car and a house? hell yes...can they marry in every state and get the same oppurtunities as myw ife and I? ..oops...ran into a problem there

But that doesn't mean gays should be allowed to take over the world and force their agenda down our throats.

who should be allowed to take over the world?
about this agenda you mention - what is it?
then, about having anything forced down your throat -
unless you consider the entire civil rights movement something that was shoved down people's throats...
IE- most people don't have problem with gays. They just don't want to think/hear about it constantly, just like a gay person probably doesn't want to hear about me being straight. So long as people just consider themselves a person like everyone else, everyone should get along just fine.
then, about having anything forced down your throat
No pun intended ?
