I disagree. I'm as ultra conservative in my nature as it gets. I remember being told about homosexuality as a first grader and looked at the ground horrified. I don't recall being this horrified upon a revelation in my entire life. I never even had a concept of religion or knew anything about it as a first grader. -

Because certain social norms that are traditional include being able to delay gratification, wanting to have families, being able to have a lasting marriage, and this type of stuff. Acceptance of homosexuality is perceived as a threat to this order because you are saying forget this type of schemas, let's go with some other type of schemas. One that is more about individual desires. But this can create a culture of hedonism and then that would be anti-thetical to the norms conservatives want to preserve. -

I disagree. Even without any rapes, homosexuality is still seen as an error on the appropriate target for sex and therefore an abomination that is intrusive to the inherent senses of a conservative brain. When conservatives tell you to them its akin to bestiality, they are actually articulating their position as accurately as possible. To them this is what it is. It matters not to them if a human is not a beast, it's still comparable to them because the condition isn't human or beast, but the appropriateness of the target for sex. To answer Leo, for people who hold traditional values, and prioritize a type of social order, demonizing homosexuality can be understood as an attempt to protect the perceived moral and social fabric of society. -
This is a statement that will make normies suffer

Leo also helped me transition from atheism. Thank you Leo Gura.

If you say so.

This was 15 years ago. He doesn't hold this view anymore. But I agree in that I wouldn't call him progressive.

@Lila9 Other than political disagreements, I enjoy reading your posts. Sending you my gratitude.

If reality was opposite where men were doing this to consenting women, there would be a campaign against the men. But because it's done to men, no one cares. And no one will do a thing. In U.S. Legislation you can't even consent to your own slavery. Because the principle is that certain rights and freedoms are inalienable, and therefore, no one can consent to their own violation, including slavery. But when it comes to other forms of humiliations and indignation, making that socially unacceptable as a collective AT THE VERY LEAST? Nah, forget about that. Why? Because when it's a dynamic where women have the power, it's fine. That's why. End misandry.

For sure. I remember him for that when it was talked about on Twitter but I didn’t know his name.

Hmm. I always thought in the Bible God created man first and from the man he created the woman?

I just looked him up and found out he was the guy who published a hoax article in a peer-reviewed journal ‘The conceptual penis as a social construct’. This is something to look forward to.

Does this mean I'm a woman?

On the note of DNA, this is even true between chimp and human. White and black people. And so on and so forth. But it's in those small differences that meaningful differences are found.

Leo, I have a thought experiment for you. Imagine you had a daughter who had the ability to change her appearance at will, exactly like Mystique from X-Men. If she transformed into another woman, seduced you, and later you discovered her true identity, would you say you had sex with your daughter or someone else?

Biological construct, even if we can't see the chromosomes.

The UN partition plan in 1947 was the only formal and definitive offer of statehood, the other instances were negotiations that included proposals for statehood but did not constitute formal offers in the same clear-cut way.

I want to piggyback on this. In the case of JP where he interviewed a person I thought he would never consider, it's because his viewers tell him to interview that person on x topic rather than all these current others. And so once he becomes aware this is what the people want, when that person contacts him, his people make it happen. And yes at that time, I would say the person I'm referencing in my example was rather obscure.
