some time in the future they discovered that being homosexual actually is a disease or it means that there is something wrong with your brain and that they found a cure for it?

Yeh by starting this topic there will be a lot of people pissed at me probably but im not stating that its wrong be be one and im not stating my view on it and id like people not to say what they think about homosexuals ether cuz whenever some one opens there mouth about it you get a bunch of people yelling and screaming i dont care about your views on it and you shouldn't care what i think ether.

So yeh anyhow im bored here waiting at my house for my new PC to arrive and i need something to pass the time so entertain me write your prediction on what will happen.

What would happen to the gay marriage laws would they stay the same or will it become illegal in all states again and all the political bull shit that people have been fighting about for years.

Depends. Would they FORCE the "cure" on homosexuals. Because if they did, gay marriage would really just be obsolete. You wouldn't need it.

I think it'd be like X-Men..... I'd probably attack someone who wanted to cure their homosexuality.




I really don't like the idea of dating girls anyways.

Too much trouble? laugh

That's unlikely to happen though, and even if it did, there would be lots of protests. This 'disease' doesn't necessarily harm other people or something.

lol you know the government would think of something to get people to take it so they wouldn't have to deal with all the gay rights activists fighting for more rights in the future.

well, i heard somewhere in china ACTUALLY thinks that, being homosexual is a mental disorder or some kind of disease... you wont be punished for it but just have people look down on you and feel alot of pressure.... im not sure though, but its what heard and what i read... i believe some of it since they ban import movies like "brokeback mountain" or that korean movie not sure you know but "king and the clown" which has some gay themes to it.......

some countries, you actually get a death sentence or life in prison for being caught of having gay relationship or somewhat....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:World_homosexuality_laws.svg

heres a link, of the picture of the world, and colored summary of which countries ban gays or allow gays and stuff

basically go backwards starting from blue...
blue : support only foreign gay rights
green : support gay rights
light green : dont support gay rights
yellow : penalty ( just a fine )
orange : large penalty ( fine and prison, same as drunk offense )
red : life time in prison
dark red : DEATH PENALTY

Fix up your grammar before you want someone to respect your offense.

First of all i think that would be a waste of tax $$$$$$$$$... dead
There are a lot of serious problems that need addressing so it would be a big waste...

Plus if what ever you said really happen then there would be a whole bunch of problems cause ppl may force others to go.
Also the ppl who hate ppl who are homosexual may some how get the cure and force it on those who choose not to get it and cause a lot of other problems..

But, Seriously People can be who they want to be its not like they are hurting others and how about using money on something more worth wild like ending genocide or supporting schools or something.

But seriously i would just live my life like i always do. The only thing that would piss me off is WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY ON SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T HARM ANYONE!

Why cure people of a harmless disease they don't want to get rid of?

Plus, it'd create a whole new slew of problems: some countries will ban the medicine, some might allow the usage, but then it could get used on people without their consent, and some might just not care or keep the death sentence.

There are too few people who could actually benefit from it (people who regret their orientation), too many people that could risk getting their orientation, and even their lifestyle changed without their consent, and too many people that will have very diverging opinions. The legality of homosexuality is already a very tricky thing, it doesn't need to be complicated any further.

I doubt a medicine would ever be created though: it goes too much against human rights, and creating a medicine illegally would be much more difficult without proper funds and research.

And well, as for declaring it a mental disease, it can't be helped: some people only believe what they want to see. Forcing treatment or even making treatment available (which can become "forced" if the person in cause is forced into it by people around him/her) is the problem part. As with gay marriage, the medical pov will depend on each country and their tolerance of homosexuality.

Homosexuality was counted as a disease in the past.

Who knows? I suppose that it could be made available, as long as it wasn't forced. After all, being homosexual doesn't have direct health consequences and doesn't (shouldn't) affect one's ability to contribute to the society.

yeh but there was no actual proof of it. And back then it was very bad for some one to be gay cuz if people knew you would get harassed, beaten, or killed

if they discovered that homosexuality was a disease then i for one believe it'd be fukkin ace if they'd force the homo's to get cured by being surrounded and serviced by loads of 100cm bust women with "naisu" bodies.

hold on a sec that sounds like a great manga idea im going to write that one down bbl

As a homosexual, I would not take a "cure" for something I don't feel is wrong. Now there are many homosexuals I know of that would but it all depends on their experiences and surrounds growing up. If they ever tried that crap of we have a "cure", like those religious freaks and tried to make me be "cured" there would be a whole bunch of dead bodies lining the floor. I stayed in the "closet" at home for 2 years to make sure it was the lifestyle I wanted, there is no way in hell I am going back in any "closet!" Plus, I believe we are with the people in our lives because we are meant to be, my partner is the first person in my life that has except everything, and by everything I mean EVERYTHING about me and love me for it all. That type of love doesn't come often enough in our lives, so I would be forced to give that up? Hell, no! Besides that is where my argument that "homosexually" is not a "disease" that needs a "cure," we like everyone else are just looking for that one person to spend the majority of our lives with, it just happens that I would rather it be my partner, a female.
