Who needs to "flaunt" their sexuality at all? I don't walk around thinking, "I am a male that likes women". Who thinks about it at all? The only time it may come out is if an attractive woman walks by, and I may do a double take or something.It appears you have to do everything "as a gay man", and that I don't get. You apparently walk into a store not as a "man", but it has to be as a "gay man"? I just walk in as a "man". |

The default presumption for most people is straight. That's because most people are not gay or bi-sexual. To a gay or bi-sexual person, that presumption may be different. |

I don't even think about it at all. The default is heterosexual. Unless someone is flaunting or outwardly acting "gay", most people don't just assume someone is "gay". |

Expressing love and comitment to your gay or lesbian partner is a gay act. Marriage itself, an institution of the state, is not. In fact, as I already pointed out, gays are foreclosed from marrying in many states. |

Expressing love and comitment to your gay or lesbian partner is a gay act.Correct. And marriage *IS* a commitment. If two men are married, OBVIOUSLY they are "acting gay", just as normal couple would be. The fact that two guys are married MEANS the two of them are having sex, thus acting gay. There is very only very extreme slim chance a married couple isn't having sex. |

Why are you generalizing that all gay men walk anywhere like a gay man? Are there any "rules" that really dictate how one should walk to be define as gay or straight? You perceive gay men as someone who walks differently from a "man." This is a big misconception here. There are many gay men in our society that don't do things different than from their straight male counterparts. The only different is the sexual acts. "Who needs to "flaunt" their sexuality at all?" Straight men do it all the time.....maybe not you...but others do...for example, men know what to wear to turn on a woman sexually. |

Right off the top of my head, I can thinl of reasons why the Scouts' discrimjnation against gays is "necessarily" bad: It teaches young Scouts that being gay is so unacceptably wrong that no gay teen or adult may become a member. It shows teens who discover they are gay, that Scouting finds them unacceptable just because of who they are. It reinforces the ostracism they may already have experienced in their families, churches, or schools. It sends a direct message to society at large, that homophobia is a core value of Scouting.Wrong - - the Boy Scouts is a private orgnization which abides by the code and morals. Excluding gays is not homophobic, unlike you assume it is. Have you thought it may be a moral issue which they want to teach to all boy scouts? |

We don't know that. There is no conclusive scientific proof that sexual attraction is genetic or biological. There's also no proof it's a choice, so this argument is academic. It has no bearing on how we view homosexuality. Religion is a choice, and it's a protected right. |
