        I'm a person that does care what you do in your life. But have you ever thought about why nature designed us the way we are? We are designed to procreate and pass on part of ourselves to future generations. But like I said you it's your choice.

        homosexual behavior is observed in the majority of animal groups incl. 'intelligent' species like dolphins, elephants, and macaques. sex also serves social functions outside procreation. but please continue about how nature designed people to be strictly heterosexual.

        Yes you are correct but we are still on higher level of intelligence which can be confirmed by our society advancements. Keep in mind if your comparison is to be accurate that we should base our actions on other animals - Many animals eat their own shit - just saying you first.

        This argument abt reproduction is flawed, because of the great population that already exists, other animal do NEED to reproduce because their population may need more of them, most of it if their specie is found vulnerable, but humans are not the case to that, we are 7 billion.

        LOL your obviously LGBT community I did not say you need to reproduce I said we were designed to. That is a fact. Population of 7 billion does not a justification for going against nature. But i do have to say your real fun freaking out on twitter with several tweets!

        Im not part of the LGBT in fact, I just don't think that people have to give the whole pretext abt reproduction, cause is totally flawed. And sometimes it's just important you say directly that you're looking for excuses for looking down on gay people.

        No to mention The reproduction thing is a reality .... Being gay is the only way you don't pass on your genetics!

        The thing that I meant, is that a lot of people already don't care if they reproduce just to pass genetics, there are a lot of things more to notice to have children, it just stopped to be something relevant to people, in part because there are already a lot of us.

        I have been stalked, harassed, and maligned on wechat moments & in messages from monstrous hetero men. Casual misogyny & even hardcore sexism are perfectly ok, but let's protect the children from consensual expressions of love & acceptance of LGBTQ people #pathetic #growupalready

        But they should, of course, be exposed to the things that hetero people do and say. That's what you're stating, right?
