    That depends on your own view of morality. As a Christian, my immutable answer is ‘yes!’ but that doesn’t mean my neighbor doesn’t feel differently. Heterosexual incest can have its consequences, though, regardless of your view of the matter. My advice is to avoid it.

    I believe it was Voltaire who said something along the lines of ‘I disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it!’ If gays make it an issue to censor the opposition we’re no more strategical than the ‘conservatives’ who oppose us. I did look at the website and I did find it offensive — but that doesn’t mean I would object to a heterosexual wearing a shirt saying ‘straight pride.’ This issue has tickled my conscience for awhile now, that minorities are allowed to express their differences with an almost eccentric flamboyancy but if a member of the majority tries to share the joy by displaying his own God-given identity he’s labeled ‘discrimatory.’ I think I’ll go out and buy myself a ‘white pride’ t-shirt…though chances are I’ll have a difficult time finding a retail chain bold enough to carry it.

    I believe true pedophilia is committed by a person over the age of 18, with a minor five or more years his junior. Therefore a 16-year-old having sex with 13 and 14-year-olds would not be considered illegal.

    Homosexuality in an of itself is generally accepted as not being a choice. The ‘homosexual lifestyle’ on the other hand, implies a a degree of free will. As a lesbian, I could choose not to love, show affection to or have sex with other women. To do so would arguably be denying myself a fundamental need for a loving connection. However there are homosexuals who choose to do just that for moral or other personal reasons. In the Christian community, they are known as being ‘Side B.’ Side B gay Christians believe that being gay is not wrong but acting on those feelings is, to remain in accordance with certain Biblical texts. Most ‘Side A’ Christians view this belief as ‘internalized homophobia.’

    I don’t have a simple answer to your question as I am not completely convinced that homosexuality is neo-natally determined. However I am sure that my own sexual orientation was established at a very young age; somewhere probably around toddlerhood. I think the lesbians to whom you refer are girls of underdeveloped identity who ‘decided to become gay’ in response to Western society’s obsession with lesbian sex. This pseudo-transformation is not necessarily a conscious decision and I feel really troubled by this ‘gay fad.’ What happens when these girls mature and are in and out of empty same-sex relationships? They will ultimately come to terms with their straight identity and forever associate homosexuals with hedonistic pleasure. I believe that men almost have an advantage then for society doesn’t subconsciously instill in them a prurient lust for unnatural attractions.

    In simple response to your question, I would have to say that I can be listening to music while reading a book and keeping half of an ear on the television and if someone in the room says ‘gay’ whether I mean to or not, all of my senses immediately focus on the speaker. Just saying ‘gay’ or using it as a means of classification is not offensive to me.

    I think it’s important for you to remember that your son is at a crucial age where he is developing his own sense-of-self and therefore his own sexuality. Although he finds engaging in erotic activity with another boy stimulating, it is not a definite indication of his sexuality. Many people will hesitate to reveal that they’re not so sure of the concreteness of their own sexual orientation — that an attraction solely to one sex could completely change on a seemingly spontaneous incident — and therefore, without reliable research to back up any individuals’ claim to homo or heterosexuality, it is safe to assume that sexual orientation in and of itself is fluid. In regard to your son, if this behavior bothers you on a moral level I would encourage you to talk openly with him about this behavior, your fears and expectations, and what kind of man he sees himself becoming.
