Sure maybe the primary function of sex is to procreate but does that mean that every single human being must procreate? There are too many parent-less children out there who could be well taken care of by same sex couples. Both you and Brian are totally misguided and ignorant. There are recorded species that practice homosexuality. Homophobia is only found in the human species. What about heterosexual couples who cannot procreate?
Couples can have sex to bond and be intimate with one another to maintain their relationships. Read a book and open your eyes and your mind Doctore!!! I wish these men all the best.
They truly are brave and an inspiration to other young black gay men like myself. Nice try, but try again. I would like to ask you, that, since you are under the impression that love is an emotion, which is a suggestion, that you tell us when it was suggested to you that you fall in love with your current or previous partner s.
They obviously have never known the happiness of falling in love. And what about those who enjoy sex not for procreation — must they cease their heterosexual activities? And what about love, companionship, laws that provide mutual duties of support, etc all the attributes of a relationship? Must they cease to be equally obtainable for same-sex couples, just because straight couples have the ability to procreate without having to go to a sperm bank or seek a surrogate.
Sex in an intensely social species such as ours has many purposes, the primary one being to form intimate ties that bind a couple not only to each other, but to both of their families and their societies.
We need that established first in order to raise human children. For them, sex is primarily about procreation, but not for us. People who build schools, teach, police, keep the water safe and the power reliable, keep public parks maintained, doctors, drive trucks that deliver food and goods, farmers, pastors and everyone else, some of whom are Gay and all of whom parents need to raise their children in a modern society.
If the lovers are not a fertile couple and want to help raise the next generation, there are the age old ways that infertile couples have dealt with that obstacle since at least antiquity. Surrogates, donors, adoption, guardianship. My heterosexual parents were never able to procreate.
Do you want to break them up? Also there is homosexual behavior throughout the animal kingdom. What is missing is homophobia.
Homosexual behavior has been observed in the natural world between almost every animal species and quite a few birds. There are gay horses, monkeys, dogs, even penguins. The fact that the majority of members of any given species choose to have sex with the opposite sex does not invalidate the minority who do not.
Do the research before making a statement like this next time around. Yes even sheep have long-term commited homosexual relationships. There are many things in nature that are selected for but only as a small percentage another example being left-orientation, instead of right. One of the consequences of sex is procreation — it is also one of its success factors.
But a purpose would imply that somebody sat down and actually thought about how to get more creatures on the planet. By the way, how can something that two people like to do not be natural? Where does the pleasure come from if not from themselves? If they are creatures, then by definition their behaviour is natural. Moreover, how can you say that an emotion is wrong or right?
Who would judge an emotion?
But I fail to see how this has anything to do with same sex mariage. Can you please clarify? Thank your telling our story.
We chose not to elaborate on the extensive homophobia in South Africa as we saw this story as very special and a break through. I am sure he feared this very action on the part of gays to start to include traditional marriage. But we did not want to include details of that stuff on your special story. We do note that we realize this was a wedding between to men who are from different South African tribes, we heard Zulu and Tswana. However we emphasize tradition here in general -.
The symbolism of what you two did was awesome and has profound meaning. Why are we pushing to eliminate the built in responsibility of child bearing that belongs to the biological parents-who are ultimately responsible for creation of the life? TONS of research regarding the automatic statistical disadvantage of children who are raised in broken families. If there is a child rearing role for Gay and lesbian people, and I believe there is, then it needs to be called something different-because it is different and we need to have names for things.
Congratulations to both of you, I appreciate and thank you for the courage to do what you believed and actually is right. After years fighting them, Milley talks peace with Taliban. De Waterkant Melville. Image by J. The court-led achievement of same-sex marriage in South Africa". Ohio ilikuwa nzuri ila tatizo lake ni kwamba kila anayepita pale anakujua halafu unatakiwa uonyeshe maungo yako hazarani mimi sikuzoea tabia hizo na sikuwa na mhemko huo kwahiyo nilivaa miwani yangu na kuacha mapaja nje tu waangalie wenyewe kama wanapenda watakuja.
Sorry but you a make no sense. Can you please try and rephrase this nonsense. What about foster children — tens of thousands in the USA system- whose own mother biological and bio fathers abuse them — throw them onto the street, etc. Just because they are bio does not make them right as parents. The worst child abiuse cases come from bio parents. That said whats wrong withnsame-sex parents? They intend to have kids- dont have them by accident. Get a grip there are different kinds of familes and as long as the criteria are met the child has an equal chance of serenity and happiness and perfect development.
So call it whatever who cares? Name things? Call is loving parents no matter what or who! Problems with society can be fixed. And in fact, a study published in the journal Pediatrics found that children of lesbians may actually do better than their peers in terms of emotional development, behaviour, and academic success.
The proof of the pudding is in the eating. Research has determined that having two loving parents of the same sex is not different than having 2 loving parents of the opposite sex. Your argument is quite useless because many adopted children never see or meet their biological parent, or mother. Children do not have to have a mother and a father to be raised in perfect happiness, with full love, and to have great childhoods to be ready as adults for an equal opportunity in life.
Comparisons to kids raised by heterosexual parents, have proved that kids from gay households are equally well adjusted and in some cases much better off because they are intended and wanted children, in every instance. Tell your argument to the thousands of kids now emerging into adulthood from same-sex families — and they will laugh at you. Do yur homework and meet a few such kids and families before making such crazy assertions. And what about plenary adoption when kids grow up in families which are not theirs?
Those two guys are deeply in love with each other, they are already a family. None of them has choosen to fall in love with an other man, and nobody has the right to deny them the hapiness to have a baby. Children come from human eggs and sperm. I remember seeing a great wedding write up from an LA couple.. Just like all adoptive parents, parents by surrogacy LOVE and can afford their children.. Brain Having kids do not come form the Animals and there are a lot of children who do not have parents and can be adopted by either.
Dolphins are very definitely bisexual. They have a -lot- of sex for recreation. If a gay couple want children, they adopt them, besides I have seen many video clips of same sex animals having sex with each other.
