- America has been deluged with so-called "reality"
television series, but one premiered on the Bravo cable channel last week
that shows just how far off-track our culture has gotten.
-
- Given the title "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy,"
this new television series maintains that heterosexuals have much to learn
from homosexuals in matters of fashion and how to live their lives.
-
- Bravo is airing what amounts to be a weekly advertisement
for the homosexual movement and its agenda. It should come as no surprise
that I do not feel compelled to take any fashion or lifestyle tips from
the homosexual movement, and I say that as someone who was wearing pink
shirts back in the 1960s before the color was seized by homosexual activists
and politicized.
-
- Nowadays, I still wear a pink shirt every now and then
as a sign of rebellion against a movement that expects wearers of that
color to be sympathetic to their agenda, which I most certainly am not.
-
- The TV show has it absolutely backwards, unsurprising
given that Hollywood producers these days are more interested in hewing
to the homosexual movement's Politically Correct agenda rather than defending
traditional values.
-
- We all know about AIDS and how that has ravaged many
practitioners of the homosexual lifestyle. But did you know that the lifestyle
associated with homosexuals with its emphasis on drinking, promiscuous
sex, and violence leads to many early deaths from causes other than AIDS
as well as serious physical illnesses?
-
- Perhaps Bravo's producers would be better off doing a
documentary on the dead-end road that the radical homosexual movement wants
to lead this country down. One document that they should include in their
research is a study written a few years ago by the Family Research Council's
Tim Dailey on "The Negative Health Effects of Homosexuality."
-
- The Bravo producers could show how fashionable excessive
drinking is in homosexual circles. According to an article cited by Dailey's
study that appeared in the December 1994 issue of Family Planning Perspectives:
"Among men, by far the most important risk group consisted of homosexual
and bisexual men, who were more than nine times as likely as heterosexual
men to have a history of problem drinking." Furthermore, the study
discovered that problem drinking was a likely culprit in "significantly
higher STD (i.e., sexually transmitted disease) rates among gay and bisexual
men."
-
- That, of course, is the least of it. The lifestyle is
one that encourages promiscuity, leaving homosexuals open to all kinds
of STDs and possibly even cancers.
-
- "Don't ask, don't tell" about risky sex is
obviously a fashionable concept within a significant portion of the homosexual
community. A 1997 study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
found that 45% of homosexuals who reported having engaged in unprotected
anal intercourse during the prior six months did not know the HIV status
of all their sex partners. And of those who had unprotected anal intercourse
and multiple partners, over two-thirds did not know the HIV status of their
partners.
-
- Plain common sense is not in fashion either because those
homosexuals who may not be personally engaged in such repeated sinful activities
essentially sanction it by calling on more promiscuous homosexuals to use
condoms -- not to completely renounce their unsafe lifestyles.
-
- Furthermore, relationships between homosexuals are often
violent. Dailey cites the book Men Who Beat the Men Who Love Them: Battered
Gay Men and Domestic Violence which stated that "the incidence of
domestic violence among gay men is nearly double that in the heterosexual
population."
-
- Even homosexual marriage is not going to change things
much because studies have shown that many, many homosexuals, even those
in "committed" relationships, do not have any deep sense of fidelity
to their partners. Furthermore, even those relationships that could perhaps
be termed monogamous" cannot be considered healthy because they usually
involve anal intercourse, a practice that is simply unhealthy given that
it frequently leads to bacterial and parasitical STDs.
-
- That's the plain, unvarnished truth that Bravo's "Queer
Eye for the Straight Guy" and many other television shows will not
discuss. Because they want to gloss over what the homosexual lifestyle
is really about is absolutely no reason why conservatives of conscience
and compassion should not continue to demand the truth be told, particularly
now that homosexual groups are engaged in campaigns to tell schoolchildren
that "being gay is okay."
-
- Silence on our part would mean being complicit in the
promotion of flat-out lies and distortions that have deadly consequences.
The fact is that the homosexual lifestyle is one that is dysfunctional,
unhealthy and can even be deadly, not to mention that it is immoral.
-
-
- It's not the fashionable thing to say, but it is the
truth.

- "Please save us all from moral preaching ignorants"
-
- Dear Jeff,
-
- I think it is great that you provide a forum for so many
versatile ideas/opinions/facts etc.
-
- When I read your site - which I do regularly - I, once
in a while, come across an article that actually sparks my urge to reply
to the author. Mr. Weyrich's article "What Heterosexuals Need To Teach
Homosexuals" is such an article.
-
- Now, to provide against any misunderstanding, I am neither
a homosexual nor a fighter for homosexual rights, but simply a person,
who believes that homosexuality is not something one can choose. If you
so will, I consider it (as I am sure any person with a half-way scientific
approach would too) a natural occurrence in nature. There is many a proof
in history, even very ancient history, that show us homosexuality has always
existed. It still exists in humans just as well as in animal life and it
can have many forms.
-
- Mr. Weyrich is telling us all about the most negative
things in the live-styles of homosexuals and seems to be forgetting that
these very same things happen every day in much larger numbers (because
heterosexuals make up the majority of the population) in the lives of us
so-called "normal ones".
-
- Promiscuity has not been invented by homosexuals, neither
has bashing in each other's heads. When I just think about the many cases
of domestic violence so many women are faced with, I wonder if this is
the preferred lifestyle we should adopt according to Mr. Weyrich?
-
- I have met a few homosexuals in my life and without exception,
these people were of a most gentle nature and the least aggressive. Of
course, they have the same right to get angry at their partner, just as
we "normals" do and the same right to articulate this. Their
sexual practices are - again, just like ours - their own business.
-
- I wonder, why Mr. Weyrich is not mentioning the many
"good" husbands, who, when they cheat on their wives during a
business trip, hardly ever are concerned about safer sex (do they honestly
still think AIDS just befalls homosexuals?) And how many heterosexuals
go to a hooker and say they would pay more, if they didn't have to use
a condom? Then they go home and make "love" to their wives (how
responsible and loving is such an attitude? Yes, in fact, how moral?).
-
- But let's get to Mr. Weyrich's statement of the higher
risk homosexuals allegedly have with regard to alcohol. Could it possibly
be that homosexuals drink more, because the society they live in does not
accept them for who and what they are? That they are still met with hateful
prejudice and ridicule in most cases and that they are attacked more often
(e.g. muggings etc.) than heterosexual men, simply, because the attacker
- in most cases being heterosexual, of course - knows that a homosexual
is usually more timid, less inclined to use violence and would thus not
put up too much of a defence? Faced with these things on an almost daily
level, I would assume that alcohol seems a means for appeasing some of
the pain one endures during such experiences! I don't say it is the right
remedy, but understandable. By the way, a lot of heterosexual men get sloshed
after a hard day in their office, after a fight with their wife, after
being depressed, because they didn't get the desired promotion..
-
- I marvel, however, at Mr. Weyrich's absolute authority
on "morals". Doesn't he know that morals are usually made up
from within the majority of a society? Furthermore, morals are something
that can differ extremely even within that society, always depending what
end you come from. Mr. Weyrich also seems to live under the delusion that
homosexuality is merely a sexual practice some men enjoy and not a genuine
disposition.
-
- Would I have a magic wand and could I issue a wish that
came true, I would wish for Mr. Weyrich to be locked in a male body, whilst
his whole being were crying out to be a woman, his feelings were utterly
female and his disposition were such that he could not even remotely imagine
every being happy as a man. I am sure he wouldn't last a single day like
this. Yet, most homosexuals do have to live with this kind of feeling and
they try very hard to find the right way to live their lives fairly happy.
Would society simply accept them as they accept heterosexuals, then most
of the problems they indeed have, would probably not even exist.
-
- The fact that a majority is heterosexual, Mr. Weyrich,
is your good luck, something that nature just happened to give to you.
But, how did Friedrich Schiller put it? "What is the majority? The
majority is nonsense!"
-
- Let's assume for a moment, nature had provided for homosexuality
to be the norm. Then, you, Mr. Weyrich would be the outcast here and be
seen having an immoral, dysfunctional, unhealthy life-style. I am sure
you would strongly disagree to such an analysis.
-
- The homosexual lifestyle is neither one that is "dysfunctional"
or particularly more "unhealthy" than any heterosexual one, and
it most certainly is not immoral. Immoral is the fact that some heterosexuals
still think they can impose their life-style on others, feel superior to
those that don't live like they do and general have no idea what they are
talking about. They can quote as many statistics as they want (we all know
how statistics are made up - most always they differ depending on where
they come from).
-
- And by the way, ever heard something like "... the
right to the pursuit of happiness", Mr. Weyrich?

- Mr. Corné writes... "Would I have a magic

them as they accept heterosexuals, then most of the problems they indeed

-
- You know, there was a time when people who imagined themselves
to be something they were not, they were treated as mentally ill, and quite
often cured. With trends as they are today, I guess some nutter who thinks
he's really Napoleon trapped in the body of a common Irishman would be
greeted with a new psychological profile and plastic surgery to complete
his "pursuit of happiness."
-
- Perhaps society would accept homosexuals/homosexuality
a little better if there were not quite so many radical gay social engineers
who want the perverse sexual activities (anal sex, oral-to-anal stimulation,
fisting, to name but a few reprobate practices) of most homosexuals shoved
down the throats of school children as young as 5 and 6, as this is their
only way to propagate their 'kind.' Homosexuality quite often IS a choice
and there are a myriad of psychological disorders and maladies that lend
themselves to the affliction, which was once well understood by the fathers
of modern psychology until a new paradigm, now embracing even pedophilia
emerged; and we always hear "Why would anyon 'choose' this lifestyle?"
considering all the negatives, which of course is a lame argument as millions
of people daily choose even more self-destructive lifestyles without mental
impairment.
Maybe if Homosexuals did not have upwards of 260 casual sex partners in
a lifetime and demonstrated a monogamous restraint things would be considerably
different. Tolerance is often the balm after reasonable assimilation. We
don't see that among homosexuals, for the most part. They remain virulently
iconoclast as a culture and do pose serious threats to the majority culture,
though being less than 4% of the population (numbers as high as 10-20%
are ridiculous exaggerations). So long as a majority, by nature, remains
heterosexual (that's how we all got here, remember? No one reading this,
gay or straight, is the product of homosexual union) and procreation remains
the province of natural coitus/conception/reproduction and the continuum
of the species, the twisted rectal/inverse extreme -- which is truly a
complete aberration -- has little room to complain or make special demands
of anyone. One can at least argue that everyone capable of contemplating
these issues is the result of natures one and only creative sexual facility,
whether they choose to live in denial of their origins or not.

- Re: Comment From Ani Corné
-
- Jeff - I find this statement to be of some interest:
-
- "Now, to provide against any misunderstanding, I
am neither a homosexual nor a fighter for homosexual rights, but simply
a person, who believes that homosexuality is not something one can choose.
If you so will, I consider it (as I am sure any person with a half-way
scientific approach would too) a natural occurrence in nature".
-
- If this statement is true, how do homosexuals propagate
themselves? Nature provides propagation via a "male-female" union,
with of course exceptoins in the lower classes.

- Jeff,
-
- I'm sorry, but I just had to respond to the comment made
by William Lundberg in the article, What Heterosexuals Need To Teach Homosexuals.
-
- Mr. Lundberg hints that he believes homosexuality is
a choice justified by his statement, "If this statement is true, how
do homosexuals propagate themselves? Nature provides propagation via a
"male-female" union, with of course exceptions in the lower classes."
-
- Well, Mr. Lundberg, if you found the statement made by
Ani Corne to be of interest, perhaps you would find it interesting to find
out just how many homosexual men and women marry and try to lead a normal
lifestyle to please their families and to fit into society. These men and
women have children too Mr. Lundberg. Whoa, huh?!?!?!
-
- A good example is a friend of mine who's mother married
for 13 years and had two children, a boy and a girl. She is now divorced
and happily living with her girlfriend. By the way, both her son and daughter
are gay.
-
- Oh and have you ever heard of recessive genes and traits
Mr. Lundberg? Duh!!!
-
- Thanks,
- Greg Wells
-
- P.S. I watched Queer Eye for the Straight Guy and found
it pretty funny. What's really hilarious is when the girls see their new
men and go wild over their upgraded look. You think maybe these gay guys
are on to something?
