So do gays have lower IQs than straights? Rolling Eyes

Fight external pressure to impose bad laws

Someone might mention to the good don that the purpose of a constitution is to lay out the blueprint for governing, not a list of specific laws. If you start putting laws into the constitution, very soon you will have Article MMDCCLVIII, Section 3 reading: There will be a stop sign on the corner of 3rd and Main.

Leonardo da Vinci, Donatello, Oscar Wilde, Tennessee Williams, Gore Vidal, homosexuality didn't make any of those people stupider.

And let's not forget Michelangelo, Walt Whitman, Alexander the Great, Shakespeare, Benjamin Britten, and Tchaikovsky among many others.

I was trying to limit it to people for whom there's strong evidence they were gay but Walt Whitman would qualify and probably also Michelangelo. I never heard anything about Tchaikovsky's sexuality so couldn't comment there and perhaps I should be embarrassed to admit I've never heard of Benjamin Britten.

There are books (and CDs) about the life of the Spartans. The boys become catamites to the older men when in 'training' Effectively making most Spartans at least Bi-curious.

Also read a book from those times by Xenophon. I just read The Persian Expedition and the soldiers are always looking for 'good-looking' and 'pretty' boys. In these books, you just dont hear about women Shocked

In Rennaisance Europe (not Medieval) men wore make up, wigs, perfume and other things femme. The upper classes were especially decadant and homolife was accepted.

Speaking of HomoLife, have you read The Forever War ? Very very realistic !!!

Well if they want their country to be a laughing stock then go right ahead. Frankly, I don't want the UK to waste any time or money to try to convince these half-wits the error of their ways. Leave them to wallow in their own stupidity.
