Life / How do Polish people see homosexuality? [152]

Regarding my first point about the emotional problems that arise from being homosexual, I just want to finish that point by saying that if homosexuality was more accepted by fellow human beings, I think the numbers would significantly go down on the life spam of them, and the anger they have which allegedly makes them violent in their domestic relationships, It would definitely decrease the number of substance abusers in the gay community because they wouldn't have to use chemicals to feel happy and to escape the hatred that they deal with on a daily basis, When the number of substance abuse goes down, the average health will go up because there will be no reason to pollute their bodies.

These statistics exist because of the way that they are forced to live. They are not accepted and therefor feel horrible about themselves and think that they are worthless. Regardless of sexuality, anyone that has a horrible self esteem and feels unloved by the world is going to go out and have sex, and do drugs, and party. That's WHY (on average) people become drug addicts and excessively party and have sex with everyone they meet. They are looking for love and happiness and validation! If they can get that from their fellow citizens and if they are treated as human being and as fellow citizens with the same human rights as everyone else regardless of sexuality, then I KNOW that those statistics will then be fasle. They will have changed and the gay community will finally be able to show their true beautiful colors to the world. It's just a matter of letting them do that.

I must be having a hard time understanding this. At first you are relaying the point about Polish and the overwhelming opposition to homosexuality and their adopting children. Then you say it's advisable and ethical to place orphans in these horrible homes.

I'm only to assume that you are being sarcastic.

Look at the numbers of hetero vs. homo. Homosexuality is a small percentage of the population of the world. In theory, the great thing about averaging in statistics is that it is even. I think that at this point in the history of the coming out of homosexuals, there are a lot of other factors to consider. The main being the fact that homosexuals are often time emotionally distressed. Especially at a younger age. My brother for example is a 17 year old out of the closet homosexual. This is very hard on him and even at his young age, he cannot handle being in a relationship. There are a lot of psychological problems that come from hiding who you are from the world for an extended period of time.

I'm not saying that those statistics are false at all. I just think that if a nice stable couple who just happens to be same sex wants to adopt a child they should be able to. The same way a hetero sexual couple who is sane and stable and loving. Statistics like these could go very far and be quite ridiculous. Look at black people. Are you going to deny a black couple the right to adopt because the fathers more commonly desert the family? Because they commonly do crack and are in gangs? I wonder what the statistics look like for black people (At least in America. I live in the United States in Chicago so that's what I'm going by.)

When ANY couple wants to adopt a child, the adoption agency should really make sure that the family is a good safe environment for a child to be raised. If an adoption agency going to the house of ANY couple and seeing beer cans on the floor, they are going to be denied the right to adopt a child. That should be standard. A psychological test should be done on hetero or homo sexual couples.

I guess I could go on forever but it just seems like the same rights should be available for single men, or single woman, married couples, or unmarried couples, and gay couples, or straight couples...

After being confronted with your information about adoption, I plan to look into different statistics other things. Such as, the process of adoption and what ways they gage whether or not the home is fit for a "tramatized orphan", is there discrimination upon black people adopting children based upon the statistics that they generally have, and most importantly, how children feel and the type of person they grow up to be when they have been raise by a same sex couple. I imagine they are beautiful people who except people from all walks of life no matter how different they are... Which is what everyone, in my opinion, needs to do better, be more than tolerant or compassionate, but understanding and excited to meet someone different!

Thank you for sharing those statistics with me. They really made me think.

Oh no!!! This is so ignorant! I rarely encounter people that feel that way towards other human beings. It's so sad to see those words...
