Sexual attraction and reproduction doesn't mean the same thing. We're not built that way. I may fuck 3~8 times a week, and having OFFSPRING is not the goal. I have a player friend, he bangs about two different women a week, he's "fixed" - and is impossible to have children, but he sure likes to fuck.I mean I'm of the belief that some people are born with a higher likelihood of being gay, however our instincts are typically to reproduce. The truth is we don't really know, if someone was born into a society where being gay is acceptable then they have a higher likelihood of being gay. If someone is born into a society with arranged marriages to the opposite gender then it is less likely that someone will turn out to be gay. ~~~ Idk this shit is mad complicated when you really dig into it.
Being gay, bi, etc doesn't keep someone from wanting to be a parent... just as I know women who DON'T EVER WANT to have kids. I told a female friend of mine who just turned 40, that I don't look down on her for not wanting kids - some of her friends and family are giving her shit. She made a choice. Better that, then having a kid she doesn't want. By the way ladies, I DO recommend that you don't start a family and getting serious until you are over 25 years old (both men and women). Hopefully you have a serious relationship, you're past drug use (to reduce birth defects) and you have slowed down going to parties. I'm in my 40s, I've only just "slowed down" somewhat because I cannot party til 6am and function later, unlike a few years ago. I(we) still go out 1-2 times a month... but usually we are paying for it the next day. I kind of miss the days of 3~5 days of intoxication, but I can't do it and we don't have time for it. Family first.
I know of a trans-woman (She was a "he") who dates and has sex with women (usually lesbians) and some men. She is quite hot looking, and if you just meet her, you wouldn't know she used to have a penis... but yeah, she dig's girls.
Back to "society" part in which homosexuality is acceptable. Here is where you are wrong. In the GOOD OLD days in this and most other western countries - being in an arrange marriage or because its the THING TO DO and the guy is a homosexual (sometimes NOT knowing it) - he may spend years with his wife and both having "ho hum" sex, they can have kids... but if he's thinking about hunky men, he's very gay. Many gay men IN THE OLD DAYS would also get married, kids - and yet, were active homosexuals. They have the cover of family. This is UNFAIR to the woman, and unfair to the gay man as well.
So while same sex marriage will be legal for the whole USA, it only means more committed homosexuals will be married for love and get the benefits that heterosexuals take for granted. There are important things that happen when you are MARRIED. Simple as that, and why its unconstitutional to prevent gay people from marrying the person they love. Look up the 14th Amendment. here is a snip:
"Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
Gay marriage WILL NOT create more gay people. What it will do, is reduce the number of gays marrying the opposite sex because "they have to".
I meet an excited gay man once - who tried to hit on me. I told him it was rude and he could end up being punched. Turns out, he recently got out of the closet - is still married with kids. So he was happy to no longer live a lie.
Hence, no matter what the leaders of Iran says... YES, there are gay people in their country. We also know that because they execute them. They are given a choice: Prison/death or sex-change. Yep! Sex-change operations in that country is extremely high. because if you are male, who is transgender-ed a woman - then they'll pay to turn you into a woman. But transgender and homosexuality are not the same.
Gay man = likes being a man and having sex and/or romantic relationships with men.
Transgender Man > Woman = in the body of a male. Sees herself as a woman... While usually sexually attracted to men, they can be into women. I've seen that quite a few times, took a long time to sort that out.
So yes, a gay man CAN be married and have sex with women.... he's got an erection thinking of dudes.... he's still gay.
And yes you are right, this SHIT is MAD complicated. Its unfortunate... but at least in the modern world, we're not executing people for being who they are.
