What is the difference between having a sexual relationship with a person in a long-term, stable, and loving homosexual relationship vis a vis a heterosexual relationship (this includes marriage)?

Poor analogy as alcoholism is only relevant after one is addicted
no. totally wrong. the analogy is inescapably isomorphic. the epigenetic tendency of alcoholism is what led to the person succumbing to alchohol in the first place. was the person forced to drink? no. quote:absolutely. is it difficult? absolutely.
can one avoid taking a drink.

quote:acting on it absolutely is a choice. having the proclivity is not to a certain degree. people have been able to beat the urge to smoke through hypnosis. that is an epigenetic tendency just like homosexuality.
Being gay is not a choice

quote:you would have an exceedingly hard time proving this in an objective and quantifiable sense because it is an epigenetic phenomenon. it's ontological and metaphysical, not empirical.
It doesn't lead never-exposed individuals to want to drink

I’m sure there are identical twins who have different sexual preferences, and they are a close genetically as you can get

quote:omg. seriously? there is no gay gene. there never was.
a fetus has two hormones (estrogen and testosterone). one harmone takes over the other and a sex is determined. however, sometimes........one doesn't finish the job. when this occurs, the gay "gene" is possibly present.
my word the education system has TOTALLY failed the west.

run the test in twins
quote:monozygotic twins have in some studies exhibited disparate sexual orientation.
if it is a gene and one is straigh and one gay then it's environment not genetics as both have the same DNA code

It’s both genetic and environmental
quote:my word, that is something that is taught. you've never heard of the word ambidextrous?
you can have identical twins with one right handed and one left handed.

Look to nature, young one.
The answer is easy enough to find.

quote:i wondered how long it would be before this one made an appearance. the purported homosexual behavior of animals is first, difficult to objectively quantify and second, thought to be related to the establishment of social hierarchy, not for any reasons of sexual attraction.
That explains why there’s absolutely no evidence of homosexual behavior in the animal kingdom outside of humans.
Oh wait...

So you are saying the ghey can be prevented and/or cured if so desired?
narth has been accomplishing this for years.

This has become a catch-all for all manner of quackery.

Sexual attraction is not something someone mulls over in puberty and "decides"
