Lot of difference between petting one and fucking it.
Beastiality is another subject, if you wish to start your own thread.

Lots more where that came from ...
If a Republican voted for a Democrat, is he still a Republican?
If a coffee person drank tea, is he still a coffee person?
If a redhead lover had sexual intercourse with a brunette, is he still a redhead lover?

I couldn't care less what people do with consenting adults. But if you want to claim oppressed minority status after choosing those bedroom behaviors as a middle aged adult, I might be skeptical. Especially if you're blatantly excited about all the rhetorical benefits thereof, in your lifestyle as a professional virtue leader. He gets to carry the banner of the world's most popular religion and all the virtue behind it, alongside the banner of contemporary social justice. He's maximized his virtue signaling position on a number of fronts, almost as if that's the algorithm he's following. It's amazing that some of you don't even think twice about it. It's all so completely on the nose for a narcissist who wants to be considered a shining beacon of goodness in this world.

Agreed, but these are two very different things.
Gays don't need some kind of special status or protection.

Actually, they do. At least in some forms of discrimination, such as housing, hiring, etc. The level can vary from 0 on up, depending.

Discrimination.
As Americans, especially in the latter half of the 20th century, we've been raised to think discrimination is a bad thing. Actually, it is and it isn't.
We discriminate constantly. It's often called wisdom. We discriminate and do not promote those things which are bad for us as individuals or as society. While what people do behind closed doors is their own business (mostly), when those things are brought into the public square, if they have a negative effect upon society, we should not condone or promote them.
Gay marriage is one of those ideas. It serves no purpose that a domestic partnership cannot achieve.

All this ersatz theological and moral prattle just because some effusive former poster turned queer cleric writes and publishes an experiential pulp fiction novel that will be of minimal appeal to any known readership.

Agreed.
Tell that to the guys in San Francisco who parade down the street with genitalia exposed, or masturbate in public.
I would get arrested if I did that - and rightly so.

And before somebody says their can’t be an evolutionary advance to being homosexual, because they can’t breed, then answer why it occurs so frequently in nature.
Of course homosexuals can breed, and they do. They just enjoy it less. The vast majority of homosexuals has had heterosexual intercourse at some point.

Yes, of course that’s true. My point was that some have said that homosexuality is not a trait that is evolutionary advantageous, however if that was the case why does it show up even in societies where it heavily discriminated against?

Wisdom teeth or male breast nipples serve no evolutionary advantage either. Some traits are just a byproduct of something else, and that else may be evolutionary advantageous.

Though dentists often recommend wisdom tooth removal, it is not always necessary. In fact, where they are not negatively impacting oral and/or overall health, it is best to keep wisdom teeth intact. Properly erupted wisdom teeth provide support in the back of the mouth and help maintain bone in the jaw.
I thought it important to throw that in at this juncture.

Because that's not how evolution works?
