He had two functioning hands, but it hurt him in school as you really need to have a dominate hand to do some work. We had to force him to choose a hand to use... did we choose wrong? Dunno, but ultimately he had to choose a way to go."<br /><br />So say your kid was bisexual...would you make him choose one sex, and you chose wrong, doesn't that make you a terrible parent if you forced them to use one hand or in my analogy only one sex. Oh, and being ambidextrous really has nothing to do with this. <br /><br />So...<br /><br />Anyway thumbs up!<br /><br />=Dtreena-ivy-carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567514211133979859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313594.post-87913939709057159332011-02-19T22:00:55.053-08:002011-02-19T22:00:55.053-08:00Hi MG,

There's no "on/off switch" for what's inside all of us, that most of us can't even put into words -- "it" (our sexuality and attraction) just "is"...<br />xo Paul V. - Born This Way BlogDJ Paul V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18153342642716256652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313594.post-73559663916258614352011-02-06T14:15:28.708-08:002011-02-06T14:15:28.708-08:00You're muddying the debate.

Your comment was about government laws and such about their relationships. <br /><br />Not related.<br /><br />Regarding birth defects. There are no perfect, one size fits all answers. While not minimizing the situation I can use one of my children as an example. He is EXTREMELY ambidextrous. He had two functioning hands, but it hurt him in school as you really need to have a dominate hand to do some work. We had to force him to choose a hand to use... did we choose wrong? Dunno, but ultimately he had to choose a way to go.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313594.post-81560995683969995842011-02-06T13:27:48.266-08:002011-02-06T13:27:48.266-08:00Well, it IS.Well, it IS.Paul Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07825674914008378242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313594.post-55147585395619303182011-02-06T07:03:23.069-08:002011-02-06T07:03:23.069-08:00Paul - I spat up coffee reading that! ;-)Paul - I spat up coffee reading that! ;-)Roland Hulmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08979437320446956987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313594.post-910029770797724222011-02-06T07:03:00.484-08:002011-02-06T07:03:00.484-08:00Hi ATP - I see the logic of your design point, but...Hi ATP - I see the logic of your design point, but it doesn't stand up to scrutiny. What about hermaphrodites, born with sex organs of both genders? What were they 'designed' for? <br /><br />But I see what you mean - on the cosmic assembly line, men and women get churned out with non-standard design schematics all the time. As you said, people are 'born angry' - just like some dogs are just born 'bad uns.' The fact that they're born that way doesn't mean that their violent behavior is justified.<br /><br />From a sexuality point of view, you could argue that maybe pedophiles are 'born that way' and that doesn't make their disgusting behavior 'justifiable' - so some conservatives have drawn a parallel between the two. The difference is, of course, that a child (or an animal, or a vacuum cleaner, or whatever somebody was 'born' to be attracted to) can't consent; so they can never ethically consummate their attraction.<br /><br />Gay people have consensual relationships with other gay people; so I think it VERY different. As long as all parties are willing, I don't think we have a right to object to however they want to express their sexuality. Just like in the court case in California, it winds up with straight people having no moral or legal standing to prevent gay people have relationships with the gender they feel they were born to.Roland Hulmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08979437320446956987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313594.post-20496518583495305632011-02-05T19:54:57.609-08:002011-02-05T19:54:57.609-08:00Dude, that site is really gay.Dude, that site is really gay.Paul Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07825674914008378242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313594.post-33520187927853403392011-02-05T19:38:04.326-08:002011-02-05T19:38:04.326-08:00Its a false argument in many ways from a person li...Its a false argument in many ways from a person like me.
