Oh believe me, I'm not naive to believe that there is anything at all in the world, least of all any homosexual issue, that everyone could agree on, aside from kittens being cute and Hitler being bad. Not saying that I'm not naive (I SO am, and I'm aware of it), but I'm not quite that bad.
To, I'm not angry for those reasons. What angers me is that the money that has been spent researching a cure for teh ghey could have been spent on better education, the environment, or if you want to keep it medical, how about treatment of diseases, cancer and the like? I'm angry cause people are wasting time and money trying to fix the gay problem when there's no problem to fix, and the effort could be spent on something that could actually benefit society.
For the record, I'm one of those few gay guys who no, would NOT choose to be straight. If it was a choice I could make, I would refuse it, because this is how I am. Anything different would be forced and a lie, and I'd resent myself (more). That's just me. I know a lot of gay people who WOULD choose to be straight if they could. I understand and sympathize with them and accept their points. On a personal level I disagree, but only because it's not what works with me.
I feel I'm getting long winded again (curled up in bed with a temperature and too many layers of clothes on me), and I worry I'm coming across more militaristic than I would want to, so I'll finish up and leave quietly, and return in the morning to see who I've pissed off, heh heh. I'm good at that!
My anger comes from abuse of resources over a socio-political issue that needs to just dry up and blow away. My anger comes from being seen as a problem. My anger comes from an aspect of future children potentially being suppressed for the sake of a narrow-minded ideal of what a couple should be. And my anger comes from seeing how far gay rights and acceptance can come, and how quickly everything can shatter and fall and break into a thousand glittery, rainbow-coloured pieces, to be swept under the rug. I'm angry because they're ****ing with a core aspect of nature, and it shouldn't be ****ed with. I love my science and I believe it's capable of a lot of great things, but I don't reckon they should **** with our DNA too much, either. Yes, make us stronger, faster, smarter, and we'll see how far they go before damage is done.
