Hello leftpol, I just wanted to have some serious discussion regarding the homosexuality and LGBT stuff in general. So the question today I have: Is the homosexuality the mental illness, and if so how we should act on it?
For me personally I've always saw homosexuality as a mental illness, but then again, something didn't quite right fit into the story… if gays are truly bad, why do they behave totally femine? Why the word "gay" is associated mostly with love and friendship on the internet? Is homosexuality a choice or not?
There are many questions that I could answer it by myself, but then again, I would like to hear from leftpol what it has gotta say.
How is it a mental illness? In what way do you differentiate between mental illness and fetish? Is liking anal with women a mental illness? Is liking feet a mental illness? Is liking masculine women a mental illness? How do you explain homosexuality in the animal kingdom? Are giraffes mentally ill? Calling things you don't understand a mental illness is fucking retarded. I really don't understand this extreme obsession with homosexuality that the right has.

It is not a choice nor a mental illness. LGBT people are the most oppressed members of the proletariat and they need our support. All politically active socialists all over the world understand this nowadays. The Maoist guerrillas held Philippines first marriage between two women and Cuba are working hard for the rights of LGBT people right now with Fidel's niece as a prominent figure of the movement.
First things first, I am not really a right winger, considering that I support the leftist economic systems as well as the fact that I am in favor of decriminalization of homosexuality. But again, if we were to protect them from oppression, we must acknowledge some truth regarding it. For me personally, gay people have been like on some way or another, mentally ill, but that does not mean that their trait only can determine their worth right?
Of course, being gay isn't exactly wrong, it is just an illness. Like is it so wrong for you to be sick that we need to jail you for it? And I am not talking about pedophilia here… My point regarding why homosexuality is a mental disorder is the shit I have saw on some pride parades, and I am gonna tell you, I didn't like it at all.
So who is here to blame here? Well we have homophobes such as NIFB who are literal retards who admit the truth, not realizing that homosexuality is not and shouldn't be treated as a sin or crime. And even worse, we have LGBT fucktards who are literal apologizers of everything that gay people do, like every time an inconvenience happens, they always blame the straight, yet they never focus on themselves, while the other side blames the other one. It's just a neverending circlejerk and I want it to stop…

Nice job evading every question I asked and just repeating "they be mentally ill lol".

Continuing onwards from this post, let's see the other post.
Of course it isn't a choice, damn straight you are right. Gotta stop you right there my friend. There is no actual evidence that homosexuality isn't a mental illness, HOWEVER, nobody said that the mental is inherently dangerous to the people, and by that logic in mind, we have to determine what causes the strange patterns of behaviours of homosexuals. You could say that, however we need more of them to join on our side instead of sacrficing themselves to an altar of "equality" that is the New Liberal Left.
With all that said, disregarding the point that LGBT people aren't mentally ill, you can actually count me in for a help, but then again, the only rights they need are the acceptance and tolerance so they could easily find comfort and seek treatment for their illness.

Dude, I am on your side, I do want to protect them, but how the hell are we going to protect them if we do not acknowledge the basic truth? If you do not accept it, these bastards on far right will claim for themselves and use it as a propaganda tool to justify their hatred, so you better quickly make your fucking decision regarding this.
Colton Lee
Dude, I don't care if you're on my side, you're an idiot nonetheless. Calling it a "basic truth" because you saw some faggots at a pride parade doing things you don't like is absolutely retarded. In a setting such as a parade is where people let go completely and do crazy shit. Have you been to a festival before? People act absolutely insane there, straight, black, white gay, doesn't fucking matter. When you escape the drudgery of daily life for a day, especially gays in America who, in a normal setting, would could be beaten to death for acting slightly gay, you let go of you prohibitions. I'm asking you to back up your statement that it's a mental illness, not just repeat it over and over again. This isn't Zig Forums, you need arguments here.
Nathan Collins
Alright then, I'll provide the arguments, and I'll understand if you reject them, but don't come back crying here how you were wrong and how I was right.
So the argument number one is: Their sexual orientation doesn't make any sense. Don't get me wrong, while there is nothing wrong with two consenting same sex adults having sex, we need to understand why is there even a need for sex in the first place. The purpose of it is for reproduction, pure and simple. The gay couples cannot physically have children, so they have to adopt them instead. Now why would the two same sex consenting adults engage in an activity that is meant for procreation, while not actually procreating anything?
Second argument is regarding the usual behaviour of gay person in general. While there are actually some normal gay persons like David Rubin (a fucking libcuck), there are some monstrous examples like oh let's say, the so called drag queens, which I find it myself pretty disgusting. So what does this can suggest? This suggests the high possibility that homosexuality has a spectrum, much like how Autism has a spectrum. Sometimes, some people with autism literally behave like normal people, with a few exceptions, while there are people with autism who…… you guessed it.
And finally, there has been little to no explanation from the psychologists to as why did they removed homosexuality from the list of mental disorders.
