Up until the 1970's, when homosexuals flooded the field of psychiatry and had its staus changed, homosexuality was considered a mental disorder.
Do you agree or disagree that it should return to that classification? Defend your answers..

I see nothing wrong in homosexuality. I also see nothing wrong in incest, zoophilia, necrophilia and other perversions and I think that they shouldn't be considered as something abnormal or disgusting
Will you guys be serious, for once?
This thread is not about denying blacks their civil rights.
It's about institutionalizing and possibly lobotomizing gays.

With this revelation that the majority of people believe mostly what is established, and homosexuality is currently established as not a mental disorder, that most things currently established as insane or of mental defect will soon follow suit.
Can't they just run one of those tests?
- Are you in jeopardy of losing your job or family because of gay sex?
- Do you have any legal problems as a result of gay sex?
- Did gay sex affect your reputation?
- Have you ever felt remorse after gay sex?
- Did you ever borrow to finance your gay sex?
- Did you ever have gay sex longer than you had planned?
- After gay sex did you have a strong urge to return and gay sex more?

Shut up you guys. Homosexuality is natural and healthy and doesn't harm anyone. Millions have proven that gay people can lead happy, functional and productive lives.

It's not "the logic" of the statement by OP, it's the fact of the matter.
And yes, there currently is a push on for the sexualization of children. The media is filled with it. I'ts conditioning to change what is acceptable.
Homosexuals would like everyone to "accept" them as, >>13 would like, but the same acceptance they are trying to force on everyone ( a tactic of every group that thinks they are a minority deserving of acceptance) will utimately get them killed by radical Muslims.

Before you just post homosexuality, you have to define it first OP. If I hear homosexual, I really don't think of two women being together. So, I suspect you to mean either gender with the corresponding gender, but I'm not sure. Are you talking only about males, or females as well?
I don't think it should return to that classification. Classifying it as disorder won't make gays go away it will just make them complain. No one is going to change their mind on homosexuality just because some psychiatric classification changes.

You don't have to 'accept' anyone, but why look down on someone for their choices if they are otherwise normal and know what they are doing. It just seems dumb to be like I HAVE DECIDED THAT SOME THINGS THAT YOU DO ARE WRONG unless you have some reason beyond "you can't make babies" or "it makes me uncomfortable" ("god told me" is another I guess).

Homosexuality is more of a biological disorder than a mental disorder. The only disorder it leads to is not being able to reproduce. However, there must be a physiological cause for it in a person's body to make them have this reproductive disorder. Neurotransmitters, chemicals released by our brains to send signals to the body, are what control all of our emotions and desires. There is most definitely a difference in the way their neurotransmitters are functioning.
Also, a lot of homosexuals seem to have social disorders. The way they behave socially is not of the norm. A lot of straight people have antisocial behaviors as well, just expressed differently. Straight men can be overly violent or self-centered, and gay people can be overly flamboyant and self-centered. Flamboyant and obnoxious gays probably have a few other mental disorders, but it's not the homosexuality that is the sole cause.
like half of those things depends mostly on others, and not on homosexuals.
Just hope it's not official test for mental disorders.

Personally, I think homosexuality (being sexually intimate with one's own gender) is a safety issue. To do something uncertain with someone safe is a means to procure sexual experience without loss of mental stability and integrity. However, this in itself shows signs of fear-based sexuality. The man or woman is afraid of the opposite sex in such a way that constitutes a seeming necessity for familiarity without loss of affection, intimacy, and personal experience.
Whereas heterosexuality is entirely about gaining courage and moving into areas of uncertainty in their entirety; a courage-seeking sexuality. There is also the factor that all humans at some point in their lives consider the question of sexual preference rather than know their sexual preference which for others seems like an insecurity, but rather those that decide without exploration of their sexuality to be hetero or homo are the harbingers of said insecurities not because what they are doing is unethical and immoral, but rather that the decision of sexual preference to be known to be an absolute which is still an uncertainty to them is the ego-centrical portion of their insecurity resulting in the seeming necessity for "pride parades."
It's a choice, but sometimes choosing to be "right" when you don't really know is the epitome of insecurity. Hence, the need to put said people with insecurities into hospitals to assist in their mental development to release them from said insecurities so they can become secure within uncertainty.

I do believe it should go back to being a mental disorder. Not saying that it's wrong or anything. Similarly, is being obsessive-compulsive something wrong or someone's fault?
This corruption of psychology is however, wrong. If a bunch of schizophrenics got together (Funny I know, but stay focused) and decided to protest against being classified as having a mental disorder, would they really get what they wanted? I hope not, because science is supposed to stay objective under any such circumstances.

Races are real rather than social constructs and racial distinctions are enduringly important because racial groups differ by nature (genetically) with regard to such important behavioral tendencies as intelligence and impulsiveness.
Racial distinctions are real and measurable and based in science and not idealism.
