Gay dude: No, not that much.
Anti-gay Detective: Aha! So you like ugly girls. I just KNEW you weren't gay!

I really hope you're a poe, because you're not just wrong, you seem to be answering comments in the most maximally ridiculous way that you can find.

No, I am reducing your arguments to absurdity. I’ll explain it to you; it is where you take a person’s argument and demonstrate that it leads to conclusions that are absurd (such as rape and pedophilia being permissible). Fidel has no more logical reason to believe that rape is morally wrong than I do for believing homosexuality is. Any attempted distinction is purely arbitrary and therefore meaningless (as we have seen).
Still a failing argument. In homosexuality, the parties involved have made informed consent. In the case of rape, consent has not been made; in the case of pedophilia, a child does not have the capacity to make informed consent.

The problem with rape and pedophilia isn't the mechanical act. It's the infringement on the will (or devlopment) of the participants. Homosexuality has no such problem.
