| yes I agree..and that's what I have said it in my post also.
Homosexuality isn't right..it's against nature..for it doesn't fulfill the purpose of perpetuation of the human race. Yehe I too least care about it..but if i'd hav been told to take a stand i'd have stood for the legalization..coz we today are in a modern society and definition of sexuality is different..and so we cannot force people to be "straight" it's on humanitarian grounds that we've accepted them as a part of the society :):) |

| kudos cheers Priya..!!! hats off.luvly feed back..!!! |
||||
| Context sensitive PJ Q.What will an Indian woman call her homosexual husband? A. Homopathy |
||||
biosexual is the correct word |
||||
tht was a nice one!!! Homopati!! lolzzz thts a good one!! |
||||
| ha ha :) superb santhosh!!! :)u brought laughter 2 de serious atmosphere!!! :) |
||||
| It was just another news for me. I guess its still a long time away for same sex (there are lesbians as well!! LOL) people to walk hand in hand, sit in a movie theater or go to Bandra Bandstand and carass each other! The Law might just permit it, but its still seen as a taboo in our Indian society. If you look at Bollywood, they are familiar with this and can live with it. But such thing cannot be said about the other movie woods in India. The reason why mentioned Bollywood is that this is where these people get the biggest boost in their Morale. Figure in place, DOSTANA. Now you will see a NGO coming up curiously named after the movie. |
||||
| My thoughts on the issue of Homosextuality: 1) No one becomes homosexual/lesbian by choice. Its always by chance. 2) It is absolute wrong to tell people that u cannot have sex(homo or hetero) for the rest of your lives. Its a cruelty of the worst kind!!!! 3) But society is not prepared to see males kissing another male/females kissing another female. Solution: Dont criminalize same sex relationships. But urge them to show restraint. |
||||
| By the way, i am a heterosexual guy.........
Anyways plz review my blog.Not getting any reviews. Plz review here:- |
||||
| @hemal yeah..cheers...bolywood has been following big bro hollywood... ps.im not against de movies :) :) Remember MILK went 4 de oscars |
||||
| @indian pundit yeah..agree.. :) v cant force any one |
||||
| the Vitality of the current legal amendment is this: Homosexual community is susceptible to HIV infection and this high risk group was mostly reluctant to reveal same sex behaviour because of fear of the law enforcement agencies.(Frontline, July 31, 2009) |
||||
Homosexual community is susceptible to HIV? Giving me ideas - to ban Traffic policemen who are susceptible to lung cancer, drivers who are susceptible to motor accidents and those whole lot of doctors and nurses who are susceptible to hell a lot of diseases..we should ban them all I say. |

||||
| @santhosh ahem ahem..gud sense of humour...i should say...!!! buddy...who said homoz r gonna b banned..??? omg...n itz a wierd comparison uve typed in..grrr.. The susceptiblity of homoz 2 HIV is entirely different from occupational hazards. Medical explanations of the etiology differ :) More over der r laws protecting against occupational hazard...eg.The Factory Act.. :)

| a really interesting post... loved the way you have written it!! really thought provoking!! |
||||
| @PARV
:) |

| Firstly, may I say that if you intend to post such a long message, please check your spellings and refrain from using text message language. It makes it really hard to read! Going on to your topic: Homosexuality is NOT abnormal. The medical text that you have referenced --- what year is it??? As per the DSM-IV-TR which you have later referenced, homosexuality is not considered to be a mental illness or a psychological disorder. Who says that homosexual couples cannot continue the evolution process? Have you heard of IVF? Or sperm donors? Or adoption? Or surrogacy? Homosexual couples can parent children just as heterosexual couples can. The difference between homosexuality and sodomy or beastiality or incest is that it is between two consenting adults and no one gets hurt. Something biological cannot be considered abnormal. That's like saying it's a crime to be too tall or too short or too thin. It's high time Indian society stopped living in the dark ages when it comes to social issues. Everyone uses the bloody phrase "it's against the Indian culture" I guess if the Indan culture stands for narrow-mindedness and regressive behaviour then it's right. Progress and open-mindedness is probably against the Indian culture. |
||||
I can live with almost everything you have told... but I disgree, vehemently, on this one point. There is no way can a woman can play substitute to a father or a man play substitute to a mother. |
||||
Ashwin: How do you explain single parent families? At the end of the day, it doesn't matter whether a child is brought up by one parent, both parents of different genders or both parents of the same gender --- as long as the basic parenting skills are good and trust and communication exist, the child will be okay. I have seen several clients with both parents who are heterosexual & together but the child is totally messed up due to none of the above existing. It's not the sex of the parent that counts. It's how they parent. |
||||
I think you missed the point. I was merely stating the fact that stressing the fact that homosexual couples cannot parent children just as heterosexual couples can. With regards to single parent families, regardless how it turned out to just one person doing the parenting, my statement still holds good that the man or woman doing the single parenting cannot substitute the other half. They may play the role, out of need, but they would be relieved to get the person meant to do that role take over!! When you say the sex of the parent does not count, you are basically denying the fundamental difference between the mental, physical and emotional differences between the presence a man and a woman or both. Its become fashion these days to reduce anything and everything to just a job. Raising a kid is not a job... its something more... more subtle to be just skill, communication and trust. It isn't some kind of a project! Take a look at it from the psychological and purpose point of view. If you still disagree, then only time will tell. |
||||
| Oh...and in answer to your question: if when I have kids and they tell me they are attracted to someone of the same sex, I will have no issues. Their choice of partner is entirely theirs and as long as they are happy, I'll be happy. And no, I'm not just saying it. I have several homosexual friends and they are amazing individuals. And at the end of that day, that's all that matters. |
||||
| @psych tomorrows children wouldn't mind even if we bother | ||||
@hemal
lol again :) |
||||
| Der was just one adam n eve...fortunately they acted Naturally..!!! who told u thr were any adam or eve nd they actd naturally? Writing sch a long write-up (doesnt matter for or against) and thn accusing othrs of advertsing homosexuality seems funny. nd yeah i postd a hypothetical debate sum days back.. i jus feel u shud read it! |
||||
nd the best(funniest i mst say) part was taking support of both science(Abnormal Behavior-medical text) and religion(Adam and Eve) to put across ur point. |
||||
omg :) i donno much about de tale of adam n eve..!!! grr...don't crucify me :) n yeah about the publicity matter..perhaps u r right..actually i've started 2 think myself y did actually post this.. :) hmm the basic purpose was contradicted by myself, it seems..kind of a self goal..de good part i read lot of literature got some 'enlightment'..!!! |
||||
| @psychbabbler i'll first of all start with an apology for the 'chATting language used'...these texts where actually ccopy-pasted from a 'comment form' in a blog....
The 'bloody' phrase 'that it is against Indian culture' was not used in this post...and i still haven't measured the extend of narrow mindedness of Indians. I never support the unwanted furore ...esp the ones raised by religious fanatics which are baseless. But ma'am i don't think it's sane to comment on the mentality of an entire nation just based on few 'bloody' phrases...even this post ain't a complete reflection of any narrow mindedness...
n about the text book that has the printed lines is "The Essentials of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology 17th Edition Narayana Reddy" . I quoted what i saw...perhaps it'll get updated if the author really thinks there's a mistake...well anyway i guarantee you it's an authentic forensic text. n ma'am do u really expect me not to have heard of ivf, surrogacy etc...funny any way...did u really turn red at me?? :) Easier 'methods' are available for 'evolution' (those that came with the origin of life) right?
the other funny part is : 'Too' tall or 'too short' or 'too thin' are all pathological...not 'crimes'...neither did i brand homosexuality is a crime... I mean no offences okay... The answer to my question was nice niway..the attitude is good...i would've been sad niway 'coz i would find it difficult to easily accept the fact that my son or daughter will have to medical or surgical methods to gift me a grandchild :)
yeah finaly...homosexualy individuals may be wonderfull persons...no contradictions... :) not all heterosexuals are perfect :)
n thanks ma'am for the awesome response...

I'm just going to comment on the Reddy thing: it's not up to the author to update the text if he or she feels it is a mistake --- a good text bases it's work on research...and that too, up to date research. And I do remember reading a few years ago that research had shown that the brain of homosexual individuals was wired differently when it came to attraction. In other words, for homosexual men, the part of the brain involved in attraction that was triggered upon seeing other men & is the same part that is triggered in a heterosexual female. I wish I could quote the source. So Reddy is supposed to update his books based on the most recent research rather than his beliefs. That is not what makes a good scientist. |
||||
| @psychobabbler Hello ma'am...Yeah de definition of a good scientist works fine...understand this, a concensus has not yet reached with regards to the biological explanation of homosexuality...lots n lots of researches and too many theories have come out...the one u've mentioned is just one...just one..."no one theory or experiment leads to a definitive answer." Even the APA has not come with one definite theory. SO how in the world can you blame Reddy...he was just quoting from the CONSTITUTION...know about the legal side of medicine??? And again..before you start blaming the Indian Constitution :) lemme say...amendment is on the way... So coming to research n medical literature, Even Harrison's Internal Medicine (regarded as a Bible 4 de medicos) doesn't have new additions unless something is universally proved. SO let's leave poor Reddy out of this. do check this link 4 some interesting research findings: http://allpsych.com/journal/homosexuality.html N thanks again 4 de awesome response...hope im not irritating ye.. :)
