Debate:Is homosexuality a mental illness? (view source)

I'm sorry, but if you think homosexuality is a mental illness (or worse, a choice) then your an ignorant bigot (or just mean, stupid, and/or gullible). Homosexuals are homosexual because of their genes. The ONLY reason people think otherwise is because their religion tells them so and they feel compelled to defend their infallible religion. Unfortunately (''sarcasm'') we don't live in a biblical world anymore; people can explain homosexuality properly and can be tolerant. I don't really like how religious people today still embrace the terribly old-fashioned viewpoint of the Bible and discriminate. C'mon people! Think for yourselves for once. You're grown adults . . . act that way! Sorta went off on a tangent there...my bad... [[User:AShep|AShep]] 21:38, 22 June 2011 (EDT)

Being a gay male, I can tell you that it certainly isn't a choice that I'm attracted to males. And since it does not negatively impact my ability to function in society or impair my thought process in any way, I think I can safely say that it isn't a mental illness. It is a choice to act on desires, but the desires themselves aren't a choice. Just to be clear. So...how is it a disease, again? - MattOfMadison
