Come oin, whirly..it's enough at some time....we understand you really have to think a lot aboot homosexuality.....

But if by Biological-Purpose you mean, to multiply ones Species....then no....

no its not infatuation I just find it confusing (Alan Partridge joke)

Seriously though whats the point from a biological point of view, I know many do procreate - So if it is genetic and their is evidence it is, the "gay gene" gets passed on, but it is not a gays primary drive like it can easily be argued it is for straights (at least until recent years). So do gays offer something, Meer Cats have a carer class, which do not procreate, this is not uncommon in mammals. I woould suggest the education system has more homosexuals than most other professions - do Gays often serve a "carer" role in humanity.

sidebar - Why are people inferring my interest in "gayness" might be an insult do they consider calling a straight guy "gay" an insult? confused

One thing I will never, ever, ever understand in the entire timespan of my life, is why guys say that homosexuals are disgusting.

"Yuk! Sleeping with other men?! Gross!"

What? You WANT men to go around having sex with women? Surely you would be glad that the straight male to straight female ratio was more in the male favour.

It's like girls who dislike lesbians. Surely you'd be glad there's more men available.

All true but do they serve a biological purpose.
Perhaps AC is right the gene serves to provide more choice and opportunity for straight men - no, no because lesbians exist, they must have a more complex function - back to the carer concept perhaps.

Like the thread, nonsense in of itself- as if biologicalmpurpose matters.

These continuous threads of yours are very tiresome, Whirly. Make one damn thread and ask all your questions in there.

Realistically, the gay gene can't be passed on without straight proecreation anyway.

however sterile people definately do not serve any purpose from a biological point of view in terms of procreation. The difference is sterility is normally in genetic terms the result of an unfavourable mistake. Gays I think would argue they are not a mistake, so if they are not a mistake what purpose do they serve?

serve just as much purpose as those who dont want to reproduce and those who cant, which again is they (all of them)serve a purpose and that purpose is to inflict on others lifes whatever way they can

I see so you see no evidence for procreation as the main drive for sex in humans confused i see, thank you for your contribution.

finti
well after you are in a comitted relationship procreationn is a part of the sex part, it aint the main part though...the main part of sex is sex in itself.
If you are not in a relationship the main part is to get laid as often as possible

yes this is a biological drive aimed at procreation, this is why most men want sex with women and even there mastabatory fanasies are centred on women, as women are the recepticles of seed and other half of the genetic information required to produce a zygote. again thank you for your contribution.

For someone who is so profoundly educated, enjoying an advanced degree in micro biology, as you stated in your multiple PMs...perhaps you should share your well-educated insight on the subject.


As Xmarks said, the reason for your rash of threads regarding homosexuality is pretty apparent. You seem to think that creating multiple threads on homosexuality, and small minded bigots sharing their opinions, is going to hurt my feelings...or irritate me in some way...or embarass me? This is not the case.


But, perhaps turn about is fair play.

well, when you think about it, humans serve no real purpose...only to ourselves.

actually its molecular biology - my special interest is enzymes

yes, the same as a virus. but how do we benefit anything but ourselves? reproduction is only self beneficial, and due to our skyrocketing world population, quite unnecessary on the scale it exists at.

if anything, i think homosexuality is a blessing to mankind. thats a percentage of people who (mostly) wont reproduce and add to an already overabundant world population, which in turn saves resources for the rest of us.

PVS I am sure you realise its debateable if a virus is alive as outside a host it is inert and it actually has few characteristics of a living organism, in the traditional sense.
So Homosexual slow down overcrowding by being an evolutionary dead end?
or are you saying they are like a fire break against the ever expanding population.

"Gay gene". I guess that's like the "homocidal gene" in serial killers, right? It's developed. Mass murderers don't come out of the womb slinging a knife, as homosexual males come out grabbing at their Dad's crotch. Why else would you delay your instinctual urge to act on this supposed genetic imbalance until you're almost fully developed physically?

Prove to me the "homosexual gene" exists, and I'll shut up. It's an imbalance, but not a genetic one.

But to answer the question, homosexuals don't serve any biological purpose or physiological need. But, as pointed out before, it doesn't really matter. Straight people who don't engage in sexual activities are rendered equally as useless in the way of "purpose".

Interesting - No a gay gene may well exist, as may a gene comples which makes people do extreme things e.g. serial killers - evil may be part inherited sad

its not an evolutionary dead end because gay people will always be a minority.
and if it WAS a matter of evolution and there was in fact a "gay gene" you should still find comfort in the fact that most gay people dont have offspring.
so any "gay gene" would be well contained, correct?

all im saying is they cut the poulation a bit. nothing significant im sure, but certainly nothing harmful.

and for the life of me, i cant see why people feel so threatened by gay people.
as if they somehow can brainwash everyone else into being gay, and destroy the human race
.
when you think about it, they have the least impact/threat on society in that they rarely raise children. meanwhile millions of straight 'family oriented' and 'godfearing' parents are neglecting their children, who will one day smoke crack and carjack/shoot me.

lets have some sense of priority is all im saying.

Come on PVS, we're not talking about where words came from. We're talking today. I appreciate your insight, but I'm confused as to why you think calling someone a "rectal ranger" is any less offensive than calling them a f@ggot?

offense yes.
but less offensive, yes.

why?

because one simply mocks a sex act. im sure its hurtful and offensive im not arguing that. but its not a laughing mockery of human suffering and tragedy like the word 'f@ggot'. so i find 'rectal ranger' to be unnecessary and offensive, but i find 'f@ggot' to be so disgusting it makes me sick to the pit of my stomach. (for those unaware of the definition check the closed thread) hope that answers your question.

agreed

xmarksthespot
Individual children who die before they reach sexual maturity serve no "biological purpose". Fertile straight individuals who consciously decide not to have children serve no "biological purpose". A woman past menopause serve no "biological purpose". A gay individual who has a child is serving a "biological purpose". Does it really matter whether or not a person serves a "biological purpose". No.

If we take it to logical conclusions the only part of a human that serves a biological purpose is his or her gametes. We should deposit them in a big machine and it can gestate a new generation and extract the gametes from the future generation in an endless futile cycle. What a perfect world.

Very politically correct X - but you are purposely missing the point now - do gays serve a socially biological role making the trait desirable enough that it must be a dominant trait, for it to get passed on at all looking at ratios as it is not a reproductive role first and foremost by definition.

Oh, I reported it. No question about that. But I didn't "troll" it. All of your gay themed threads have been a direct attack on me because I called you out in the holocaust thread.

You don't see me starting threadsd like:

Biologically speaking, what purpose does a gypsy with no children serve?

OR

How many derrogatory terms for someone with dyslexia can you think of?

OR

Can dumbass Gypsies act gay?


And the only reason I didn't report the others is because they weren't offensive to an entire protion of the population. But when you basically start a thread where everyone is encouraged to post insults, it isn't just me you're insulting anymore. A similar thread about black people being called n*ggers would have met teh same fate.

lil bitchiness
Unecessary and rude.

Here is a big thread about homosexuality - homosexuality - chosen or genetic

Please use it.
