So, here's the debate: homosexuality is currently, for the most part, considered strange, or, by some extremists, "unnatural". But is it really? Our overall population is about 90% higher than it should be currently. Is it really a wonderful idea to promote the family lifestyle of marrying somebody of the opposite sex and having your own children? Same, of course, goes with trying to "cure" infertility. There's something to be said about adopting a child who already exists and possibly exists in undesirable conditions. But if we take out the "moral" factor of "Gott/Allah/Whateverdeity made a man and a woman so that they could go forth and multiply" by pointing out that shit got us to where we are now, and our species is going to slowly be strangled and starved out in some horrid Malthusian nightmare when our resources are depleted, what other arguments can be had that can't be solved with the usual "If you hate it THAT much, then why are you watching them kiss/makeout/have mad, gay sex?" response?
I think gay sex as a population control is an excellent idea (of course I'm gay myself).
Another way would be to legalize Prostitution. All of the major cities should have a special redlight district under careful guard so the prostitutes won't be abused or taken advantage of. these aren't going to be your everyday dirty street walkers, these will be highly respectable women. They'll be paid fair wages, have decent medical care and special clinics for them. And they'll have their reproductive organs augmented so they aren't spitting out more fleshbags.

>>homosexuality is considered strange, or, by some extremists, "unnatural".
Look up evolution and how useful gay sex is to continuing the species. It's natural in the way that it happens often, but people are born blind or deformed or diseased all the time as well. Malfunctions happen in variety. You don't determine how your hormones develop, or the rest of your body for that matter.
>>Our overall population is about 90% higher than it should be currently.
Greed is the only thing that makes us overpopulated in North America. Solve that and we'd be fine, we have enough. But in places like Africa though... hell, they reproduce like rabbits there. How many people here have 18 kids? And who in their right mind would try to have another after watching 17 of them die from starvation?
>>Is it really a wonderful idea to promote the family lifestyle of marrying somebody of the opposite sex and having your own children?
Yes, it is wonderful. Men can get a lot from women that they don't get from their males friends. And children should have both a mother and father in order to grow up right.
>>adopting a child
It makes total logical sense, but if people treat women, gays, blacks and jews like shit, they clearly aren't logical. Humankind will never focus on reason and decency, they're only extreme in their views.
>>if we take out the "moral" factor of Whateverdeity
Believing blacks are inferior was moral at one time, but now it's not. Burning people at the stake was considered the right moral choice, and now it's not. They're all just biased rules and laws from cultures--merely groups of people with their own ideas.
>>nightmare when our resources are depleted
The organizations/governments that control technology are to blame for that. They CAN produce different cars, they CAN limit the use of natural resources, they just don't because that would be less profitable.
>>"If you hate it THAT much, then why are you watching them kiss/makeout/have mad, gay sex?"
Proof again that any current social belief is merely a transient phase of knowledge, it will be ever-changing and never based on pure and simple logic. Money, power and sex will trump everything else. That's why we all love lesbians, even if we're Christian.

Or we can just kill the babies which heterosexual couples spawn...
>>3 I've been saying that for ages. I mean, the whole thing's sucha mess. If you did what you said, not only would it be much safer for the clients, the women involved, but society as a whole.
Don't allow underage people into that area, look after the women so they're not hurt and don't become infested with STDs, make sure there's no little kinders out of it by augmenting them, and thar you go. Have some classy whores. Real Ladies of the Night.
Sounds much better to me.
