Aren't you against abortion and contraceptives too?

Because children are too young to consent to sex in a fully informed way, and the adult has more power over the child.

So 'hate the sin, love the sinner?' I'm pretty sure it's an insult to someone's dignity to be considered a sinner with loose morals.

The vast majority of people have enough self-control to keep it in their pants, if they're not in a consensual situation. We don't need rigid rules to control our sex lives. I just can't understand why a lot of religious people (and I'm not referring to you personally, dqualk) believe that we would all rape and molest to our heart's content if God's objective morality and next-life punishments weren't there to stop us.
Heterosexual sex has its dangers too, you can still get STDS, HIV, get pregnant unintentionally etc.. Just use protection, be careful, be faithful to your partner (unless you both agree to some other arrangement), and don't force sex on anyone who doesn't want it (or cannot consent). I don't see why any other rules are necessary.

Instead they act like crazies. Parade around in slutty attire, mock their countrymen who disagree with them ,and call for ever progessive sexual standards.
Who's trying to change sexual mores? The 'progressive sexual standards' that society's trying to promote are just about sex education, awareness of the risks, and respect for sexual differences. 'Pride parades' are the attempt of a long oppressed group of people to be noticed, acknowledged and accepted. Once the party is over, I'm sure they get back to their normal lives and aren't constantly 'crazy' and 'slutty' or trying to convert others to homosexuality.
I'm sure most of them want stability too, like most people. Not allowing them to marry or adopt or even be intimate with each other is not exactly helping them in their quest for a stable family life.
