    The OP can be interpreted as referring to homosexuals only, especially since it looks at the issue from their perspective.
    that's not how the OP ment it though.

    eh how do you think homosexuals exist? they have been born (typically from heterosexual parents)

    I take it that you are female and that the thought of pregnancy somehow disturbs you? Maybe you should seek a listening ear if it causes so much anxiety. Just a friendly suggestion. We all carry burdens of some sort - sorry to hear of yours.

    I think I kinda understand what you mean, but I don't agree. If you mean that by not being able to propogate the species they fulfil no social function (what a terrible way to describe any human being, as being purely functional).

    What about hetero couples who cannot have kids? Are they self-destructive? Is that all that people are - functional? Maybe biologically it is true that we are functional. But as humans aren't we so much more?

    Im a guy.
    Those who would sacrifice essential liberties for a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

    You know that for sure, do you? It's clearly from a homosexual (minority) point of view and in their interest.

    Typically? They wouldn't be around if their own social identity was the norm.

    I just don't want women to die in order to have children. I know that it is rare today,but there is still too much.

    yes, unless the OP would like to correct me?

    so what you are saying is that if , hypothetically speaking, most people in the world were gay and if, hypothetically speaking, modern IVF technologies weren't invented, then there would be a rapid decline in the number of people in the world.

    Ok, point taken, what relevance does your point have to this thread?

    I didn't mean it that way, rather in evolutionary terms. They won't survive if they can't have children. That's the end of their evolutionary line. So in that sense they self-destruct. It's the same with hetero couples who can't have children. No one would reasonably promote childless couples as being a minority whose numbers should grow (and grow), as seems to be the case with homosexual 'advancement'.

    Bingo.

    There is an assumption in this thread that having more homosexual couples is a good thing. I'm saying they have no future.
