I think the 10% figure is a myth. Most sources quote around 2%. Not that is matters. 2% is still common.
yeah its as common as your military press.2%?nay.

It could be that 10% has some type of gay feelings. Who knows and who really cares. Point being is that it's common enough to be classes as "natural". It's like saying that black people aren't natural because you're not black. It's a retarded argument.

it could be that you re full of shit.link me to where you got this figure from please.
The then largest and most thorough survey in Australia was conducted by telephone interview with 19,307 respondents between the ages of 16 and 59 in 2001/2002. The study found that 97.4% of men identified as heterosexual, 1.6% as homosexual and 0.9% as bisexual. For women 97.7% identified as heterosexual, 0.8% as lesbian and 1.4% as bisexual. Nevertheless, 8.6% of men and 15.1% of women reported either feelings of attraction to the same gender or some sexual experience with the same gender.[SUP][11][/SUP] Overall, 8.6% of women and 5.9% of men reported some homosexual experience in their lives; these figures fell to 5.7% and 5.0% respectively when non-genital sexual experience was excluded.[SUP][12][/SUP] Half the men and two thirds of the women who had same-sex sexual experience regarded themselves as heterosexual rather than homosexual.[SUP][13][/SUP]

Broken down by country/demographics.

So 6-8% is closer to the mark in terms of actual experience. And double those stats for people who have feelings/attraction for the same sex.
so u are claiming with a world population of 7 billion theres approx 600 million homosexuals?o rly.
I'm not "claiming" anything. I simply agree with statistics. Basic maths would tell you yes, there would be approx 600 million people who are either homosexual or have homosexual feelings. Still think it's an unnatural trait in humans?
You put forward a half-assed argument; you get destroyed. You ask for facts and figures (stupidly thinking they don't exist), and when they are put forward, you have the attitude all retards have, "you can't trust statistics".
I think you'd make more progress with your repressed feelings by visiting a gay bar for a night instead of spending all this time denying on the internet.
Yeah but what was itWell my post was pretty clear about that
Wow, over 80 pages and the "anti-gay" people can't even put forward one argument that holds water. They've definitely tried; not being natural, incest, beastiality, tax breaks, the sacred values of marriage.
10% of people are gay, most animal species show signs of homosexual acts. If an alien species was studying the animals of Earth, they'd think that homosexuality is a pretty common trait.
Incest and beastiality are just strawman arguments, with the aim of derailing the actual topic of discussion. No one is even remotely trying to make either legal.
If marriage is so high and mighty, why aren't you people protesting shows like The Bachelor? Isn't that making a mockery of marriage? Getting 2 straight people married purely for ratings and entertainment. What about gold diggers who marry old men on their deathbed? Is that in the spirit of marriage? There are countless examples why marriage holds no real meaning anymore. So if 2 gay people actually want to get married for the right reasons, let them.
Even the most right-wing Christian wackos don't have a half reasonable argument to prevent 2 adults from having the right to marry. Really they just don't like gay people based on their own insecurities. As soon as you guys admit that, the sooner everyone can move on.
