The sexuality of people
So I found this week very interesting in relation to my Women’s Studies class. It’s weird how these things tie into your life experiences just at the perfect time. One of the essays we were reading has to do with the stigma of being a bisexual, how you are not accepted by both the homosexual community and the heterosexual community. I really focused in on what one particular arguement was, that being bisexual, or homosexual for that matter, was a choice and not the way a person is born because God doesn’t make mistakes. This really stood out for me because my boyfriend and I were just having this same discussion last week. He feels this way and I feel the opposite. I can’t remember where but a long time ago i was reading something on how there are homosexual couples found in other species, like horses. If we are honestly given the option does that mean that animals are also given the option of what sex they are attracted to? Does that mean that animals can reason like humans?I don’t think that people who are bisexual or homosexual CHOOSE to be that way, because let’s face it some of them would choose not to be because of the hardships and segregation that goes along with being different from what is “right” and the majority. I honestly believe that some people are just, for lack of a better term, hardwired differently. Does this make them less? Not at all. It just makes them different and honestly different is good, if we were all the same, life would be sooooo boring.
Just think what this would do to the meat industry. To our society as a whole, for that matter! I mean, hello! If animals can reason out their sexual desires, then really, should we be going to Outback? I think NOT!
Great entry!
