    Anyone remember back in Dewey days when I was saying the problem with normalizing homosexuality was this sort of degrading behavior? I was branded as offensive and homophobic.

    It's a fine principle. It is unfair that homosexuality is shameful in itself (or at least it used to be when lots of these people were growing up), but one apparently can't surgically remove shame for being homosexual, and leave intact shame for exposing children to naked guys on bikes.

    Most gay people don't announce their sexuality or go on these parades. Most of them just live a normal life.

    It's only a certain subset of gay people who cause these problems. It's unfair to blame the problem on all of them.

          We are going to have to start checking DNA.

          How else can we protect them?

                They'll tell their friends, like me. But they don't go around and make a fuss about it.
