It strikes me that these could be intersecting sets. I find that delicious.

Oh, and the name, CRB?  Homavert.

i am so scared of the future...

I've actually had my switch turned off and it's amazing!  I'm no longer attracted to female fruit flies!    !http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/eek.gif|src=http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/eek.gif|border=0!

On a serious note...I'm thinking the human mind and human sexuality is much more complex than that of fruit flies....I know I'll alway like a nice set of boobies. !http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/tongue.gif|src=http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/tongue.gif|border=0!

I think its interesting how quickly we dismiss that "flipping the switch" is even possible.  I understand that our systems are a bit more complicated than fruit flies, but it seems somewhat short sighted to dismiss it completely without further research (it would be similarly short sighted to embrace it as gospel, however).

If it did turn out that there was a switch it would be an interesting debate as to how we would handle that. From a survival of the species stand point, we should switch everyone to hetero, but with our species far from endangered I don't see the point of forcing people into it.

As to whether its a sin or not, I maintain that neither side can prove the moral high ground here.

That's like telling someone that if you flip a switch they'll no longer love their children. (Poor fruit fly babies)

Sorry....it's simply not going to happen....and if for some strange reason it does happen, it won't be natural....just like taking a mothers love for her baby....not natural.

Not natural, or not right?

Far be it from me to contradict your description of lesbian lovin' as a "plethora of euphoric wonderment."  Tomato/tomahto, and all that.  Besides, who doesn't appreciate a nice pair of boobies?     But natural =/= good.

Among things "natural" are poison oak, lyme disease, AIDS, muscular dystrophy, draught, pneumonia, Downs Syndrome and lima beans.   I think we'd all like to eradicate those things if we could, no matter how "natural" they are.  And The Gay, of course.  We wanna get rid of that horrid disease, too.  How else could er prance nekkid in a locker room unless we know we won't catch The Gay from it?

{{{{{{bburgoyne}}}}}}

they had a breakthrough several decades ago... it can't be fixed, due to the Y chromosome you're missing the important part...

...of course, there's always Spray-On Hair, if I remember the k-tel ads correctly...
