Does this take into account that one parent families are far more likely to be single mothers than single fathers? Mothers would seem to have more opportunity to abuse children.
The other question is were single parent families taken into account period. If they only looked at two parent homes, then the issue of single mother families becomes moot.
I do agree and think it blatantly obvious that there is this sexist double standard and we all instinctively care when the woman is victim but not when she is aggressor. I admit that i have the same gut reaction, and know it is wrong. This sexism is something we should consciously guard Yes. But there would still be thr question of who spends more time with the children.
I have found myself having that gut reaction less and less. Especially since incidents like the Duke Lacrosse team, where the woman blatantly lied. Them we have to ask if the male is more abusive because he doesn't spend as much time with the kids, or the female because she spends too much time with them, going with the stereotypical idea of how much time each spends with the kids.
I don't personally have kids, so can't really relate. I don't trust children. They are plotting to take our jobs
Wrong. lesbians are born lesbians just as hetero men and women are born hetero and gay men are born gay
The Bible saying even their women hints lesbianism is worse than male homosexuality which hints it's not as genetic if genetic at all.
There is no single gene that affects sexuality. Homosexuality is homosexuality. It's not different between males and females. Homosexuals are born because of reproduction as well. Ironically enough, more homosexuals are born to heterosexual couples than are born to homosexuals.
And your qualifications/expertise in genetics is what exactly? I only ask because despite decades of extensive scientific investigation the biological underpinnings of human sexuality have still not been precisely determined. Which means either ; A) You must be the world's outstanding leader in this field of research. And I mean seriously, you should publish, because there's probably even a Nobel Prize in it for you if you do. Or alternately; B) Your talking out of your ass. Anyone want to lay bets on which option it is?
Two misconceptions here. First lesbian means female homosexual. If they are bisexual, then they are not lesbians. Second, sexuality is what sexually attracts you, not what you are willing to have sex with. There are plenty of straight people who will have homosexual sex for a variety of reasons, chief among them being money. Likewise, there are plenty of homosexual people who are willing to have heterosexual sex, again for a wide variety of reason. These can also include, especially among homosexual men, helping another to have children, or among homosexual women, having children. Being sexually attracted to one sex, does not automatically mean that one is repulsed by the idea of copulations with the other sex. Don't confuse the attraction (sexuality) with the action (sex). I'd much rather use actual scientific sources. As is we have yet to determine any actual cause. It could well be genetic, but due to whether certain genes or combinations of genes activate or don't activate, opposite of what they normally do. It could be due to other environmental stimuli that we have yet to isolate, especially if it is a combination of things. It could well be that there are multiple sources. And for all we know, homosexuality could well be a population control factor built into our genetic structure. Most (but obviously not all) homosexuals are the younger children of their families. As an aside, why to you quote the same post a second time? You do know that you can edit post for a certain amount of time after you submit them, right?
Sadly enough, there are plenty on both sides that think it is. On the pro side that is obvious why they think that, and want it to be true. Ironically enough I have found a few anti-gays that think it is a genetic inheritable defect, and that we can possibly cure it with retro-viruses, or the like.
The Bible is not against gay people. It's really between the person and God, and a straight person has sin.
If there is a God then he can change anything but there is no evidence that he exists or changes people
