Is mise,
<<Suggest that you look up the meaning of normal.>> O.K. 1a: conforming to a type, standard, or regular pattern : characterized by that which is considered usual, typical, or routine. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/normal So what one considers normal (say yourself), does not apply to others. <<Most human beings are not hunters therefore were I to say that hunting is normal then I’d be in error.>> In terms of normal, the majority do not use guns either or weapons, so the use of guns and weapons could be described as not normal in that context. Furthermore there is no usual way of doing things, some people are simply different than others in how they work and operate. Some of these "not normal" people are potentially operating better (in terms of bodily functions and living) daily as a result, where as a simplistic "majority" are tired, flat and feel as if they are failing dismally.

Nathan,
As heterosexuality is normal then it’s opposite must be the opposite of normal. Put another way, people who insist on entering a building through the exit would not be considered normal, same goes for others who prefer to enter via the exit. Posted by Is Mise, Sunday, 31 October 2021 11:31:53 AM

Is Mise,
When did you choose to be straight? Gay people were born gay just like straight people were born straight. All our sexualities are "just there." We don't need an explanation for homosexuality just as we don't need one for heterosexuality. Did you know that heterosexuality was not considered "normal" in past history? There's much more at the following link that explains a few things we may not have known.

Lets get back to the reality all of us actually live in. It used to be that heterosexuality was necessary for procreation - and this was seen as the reason for marriage and stability for the parties concerned and for society. Yet times have changed: - Technologies like pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) and in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) are only improving. In fact millions of children have been born through assisted technologies. Socially too heterosexuality is losing its "high ground." Today we see a world riddled with heterosexual affairs of politicians and celebrities complete with pictures, text messages, and more than a few video tapes. Popular culture is full with images of dysfunctional straight relationships and marriages. Divorce is commonplace. And we can no longer claim that relationship instability is something exclusive to homosexuality. The line between heterosexuality and homesexuality isn't just blurry, it's an invention, a myth, and an outdated one. Men and women will continue to have difference genital sex with each other until the human species is no more. But heterosexuality as a social marker, as a way of life, as an identity, may well die out long before then. Posted by Foxy, Sunday, 31 October 2021 1:37:58 PM

Foxy,
What I’m talking about is what is normal, surely you’ll agree that a woman being pregnant is a normal requisite for coming breast feeding and that breast feeding without ever having been pregnant ,indeed without ever having sexual intercourse, is not normal? I couldn’t care less what a person’s sexual preferences are, in much earlier posts I told of how in the Infantry we covered for homosexual soldiers but never put two of them together in the one foxhole nor ever put them on sentry together. It was a crime back then punishable by dishonourable discharge and the difficulties that that entailed in civvy life. Posted by Is Mise, Sunday, 31 October 2021 1:47:50 PM

It's just that you seem to be obsessed with eunuchs.
I think we all can guess why.
