Better that than swimming with the fishes... you know... the dead ones.

I was asking about jail birds earlier...

Did you just claim homosexuality is genetic?


So male prison inmates having homosexual intercourse were "born that way"

There is no doubt that there are biological factors in explaining homosexuality. There is very good evidence that male homosexuality is at least partly X-linked, and there are good reasons why that can be explained in an evolutionary framework. There are very clearly also in utero factors- study after study in every society examined shows a birth order phenomenon. It's almost certain at this point that there will be a twofold explanation: genetics loads the gun, and maternal environment pulls the trigger. This is a rich area of research with great debate as to which particular genes are the most likely candidates, and the mechanisms for the birth order phenomenon, and I won't claim it's settled, but the evidence for X-linkage and birth order is pretty overwhelming.

*** As to "prison gay," I think people just really, really need sex, and affection. They'll get it where they can. And in male prisons, it's often about dominance and rape, not affection.

I didn't have time to read a lot of the in between parts, just start and end...

what the fuck happened here? Birds? Prison sex? wtf lol

Yeah, birdies are visible in prison and this calls for a lot of sex. Which is why it is discriminatory to use language in a Christian forum. Say whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!

I had a budgie die from humping his toy too much. True story. Sounds like getting him a partner might have been the solution to curb his untimely demise.

One of mine was seriously spending about 4-5 hours a day fucking his little red bell. His ass feathers were wearing off and he was getting thin.

Now that he fucks his cage-mate, it's down to about an hour a day and they both seem to like it, and they look just glorious. Plus it's just adorable.

Sounds like an experiment worth trying out sometime in the future. For now, we are a bird-free house because the cat reigns on high.

Screwed to death, sounds like a good way out

The attraction is genetic. The act literally can't be.

Are you doing this on purpose? I have trouble believing anyone could be this obtuse and slow without meaning to be.

Accusing me of not actually being sincere is a pretty lame way of avoiding the question.
I'm astonished you think homosexuality is genetic.
I have never seen anything conclusive of this.
Please explain how "the attraction" is genetic.
Are you claiming that the tabula rasa might not be a clean slate after all?
