: What I'm saying is that there is heterosexuality, right it's the only sexaulity there is, to argue that homosexuality is an alternative sexuality with specific rights and privileges is a nonsense, you'd have to consider every form of sexual practice as a 'new sexuality' or something.

OK, but I dont get what you mean by heterosexuality being the only sexuality there is; there are other obviously other sexualities. Or what youre saying is that only heterosexuality is "right"/ "normal" and that homosexuality is not therefore not being considered a legit sexuality? I dont know that anyone is arguing that homosexuality is an alternative sexuality with specific rights and privileges... just that, again, its one which should have equal rights/privileges. Or have you heard some homosexuals say they want specific rights/privileges different than heterosexuals?

: :Once again, people do not CHOOSE which sexual desires they have; they only CHOOSE to act out sexual behaviors which reflect their innate desires. Did you willingly CHOOSE to have only heterosexual desires?

: Seeing as I think you can only really have heterosexaul desires and you have to be convinced or persuaded of anything other than those desires I dont really understand, or should that be agree, with what your saying.

So then all homosexuals are really just heterosexuals who have been convinced or persuaded of something other (which is that they have homosexual desire)? What would be convincing or persuading someone to believe that they are sexually and emotionally attracted to certain members of the same sex?

: :No, you naturally had them and then CHOSE to act upon them.

: If that is the case then what are bisexuals? Are they just pretenders or something?

No, they are just attracted to males and females.. to varying degrees. Im sure some are pretenders too.

: :Homosexuals have never sought to organise and try to establish "special status" w/in society; theyve only sought to have equall status to heterosexuals.. meaning not being legally discriminated against based on being homosexual.

: Now, I'd disagree with that because trying to prevent discrimination can be fought out in the courts etc. dancing about naked or in rubber in the streets, on TV, in your own specially designed press is designed with something else in mind.

Well as ridiculous as that may look I dont think its designed to try and establish "special" status but just to join together the way certain ethnicities, clubs, groups etc.. do. Having a press or other things which cater to a specific group isnt at all unusual among society.
