If you think about it, homosexuality is a dysfunction. The purpose of sex is to procreate, and homo sex don't do that brah. Dysfunction.

Actually IIRC there's evidence that homosexuality may serve a reproductive purpose(at least in males) in a roundabout way. I can't find the paper (which irks me to no end) but it was fairly interesting. It was about how one sibling would be hyperpotent and the other would be homosexual and they thought it may be linked by a gene. I'm paraphrasing of course because I can't find the stupid paper.

There are many other "functions" of sex

[quote]The purpose of sex is to procreate[/quote]nope

Sex isn't for reproduction? Then why does it exist?
-
[quote]pleasure, social connection, bond strengthening, etc. sometimes the purpose is procreation, but more often than not, it's one of the other things.[/quote]

Umm... Yes it is. I think you need a refresher in basic biology and maybe another study on reproduction. It's purpose isn't to reproduce? All right then wise guy, tell me what the purpose is.

What you listed are all residual effects to sex. Do you want to know why it's so pleasurable? Evolution has engraved into our minds that sex is necessary, and it's pleasurable because it helps us reproduce, something beneficial to our species. That is the MAIN purpose of sex. You insert your ding dong into a vag so that your sperm can provide the egg with the DNA it needs to create another human being. That's the underlying reason of why we do it. We may not SAY or THINK that's why we're doing it, but nonetheless hundreds of millions of years of evolution has created this pleasure experience so that we can ultimately make babies. Any argument against that is pitifully wrong.

Although, underpopulation is no longer a problem in today's world. Well... maybe except for Russia.
-
why we do it and why it's pleasurable are two separate things. the vast majority of sex isn't done with the intent of producing offspring. why do you think that condoms, birth control pills, vasectomies, etc. exist? because we have moved on, as a society, from sex being solely about reproduction. the evolutionary reason why sex is pleasurable isn't relevant to what we are talking about. evolution has given us the ability to do what we want for our own reasons, not necessarily for the survival of the species.

Изменено (DemonRonin): 6/10/2014 4:29:44 PMStray too far into thinking humans are exempt from this world because we are self aware, or chosen by some deity and one will keep falling into the same situations that every animal on this planet has to go through. DARWIN had it right. Sex in general purpose is for reproduction. For the individual purpose that is not the case. Reproduction being bottom on list. Hell look at japan. They have "MOVED ON" as well.
-
Are you making a point?
-
Yeah kinda meant that on it's basic level that was the blue print intent for sex. reproduce. Not so much now. No bad or good. but their are consequences for every action. Japan declining population. Well they complain about it, but they are choosing not to reproduce so I don't get the complaints. lol
-
By that logic, any kind of sex that didn't result in pregnancy is a dysfunction as well.
-
It is. It doesn't function properly, therefore it is a dysfunction.
-
It's extremely common in the animal kingdom for life to have sex with the same sex. If that doesn't constitute as proof of homosexuality being natural, I don't know what it.
-
I have no idea why you're bringing up the question if it's natural or not.
-
because you said it's a dysfunction when it's not.
-
But it is a dysfunction. Being dysfunctional and being natural are two completely separate things. When something doesn't perform the way it's supposed to, it's a dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction? Your ding dong doesn't erect. 1+1=2 right?
-
and who's to say that homosexuality isn't how something is supposed to perform?
-
That has got to be one of the most pseudo logical things I've heard in a long time. If homosexuality is the way things are supposed to be, there would be a whole lot less of us and we'd probably even be extinct. Let me say this again. The purpose of sex is to reproduce. Homosexuality doesn't do that. If you've taken any biology course, you'd know that a species HAS to reproduce or else it will go extinct, and it does that through sex mostly. Homosexuality goes against that and does not produce another human being, therefore being a dysfunction. This really isn't rocket science.
-
you have this misconception that sex is just for reproduction. sex is more than reproduction. otherwise animals wouldn't be homosexual. it's about the orgasm.

Изменено (Uncle Putin): 6/10/2014 3:01:04 PM[quote]it's about the orgasm[/quote] I'm sorry, but you're just wrong. Yes there are other functions besides procreation and I'm not arguing that at all, but the main purpose, what hundreds of millions of years of evolution and survival of the fittest has told us, is to make babies. Humans are smart enough to hijack this purpose so that we won't make babies if we don't want them, but the reason why it's so pleasurable is because of evolution. Yes there are other social functions and yes it can create bonding, but those things aren't the underlying reasons why we do it. If humans didn't need to reproduce, we wouldn't be having sex.

i disagree still. this is a philosophical difference. end this now, because you seem like a genuinely smart user, and i don't want to mute you.
