>nor is gender non-conformity homosexuality. >nor are homosexuals unable to breed.
yes. i was more identifying the source of the taboo and a culture that isn't greek or roman that had homosexuality. in new zealand, again, fa-afafine people tend to end up all out gay and pimping themselves. i see the current manifestation of mass media gay orgie irrsesponisble sex and drug consumption as a hard core escapist symptoms of very real depression. you don't have that in samoa pre colonialism. would you define homosexuality as the desire to engage in sexual acts with others of the same sex and that alone? for men, is homosexuality when you want to stick you penis into another mans bum and vice versa? on a very basic level i object. if you want to argue that anything is unclean, anal sex is unclean. animal sex, child sex, bum sex. not clean. i think it's great to love your friends, but i don't see the physical consumation of that love as anything more then severely damaging, and in the case of men, illogical. and that's what homosexuality is. bum sex with other dudes. no bum sex. i think that bum sex is demeaning. i know that i can get more physical spiritual and mental enjoyment from a game of basket ball or a musical jam then sex with anything or anyone. and i think that's the problem. trying too hard to impose my life style on others to their detriment. i think the over politcizing of homosexuality would be to the detriment of black people and thus damaging to african spirituality... although if we can make it through crack, cointel pro, and 400 years of slavery, maybe this too is just another test to triumph over.
on the other hand, i know some people who are just gay.
but look at this. in a gay parent house hold, there is an increased chance that the child will 'choose' homosexuality as a lifestyle. i think it drives another wedge into the rift between man and woman in the black family. i understand what gays are pushing for. if they were not discriminated against, perhaps they wouldn't have a wounded spirituality. or be physically wounded/threatened with impunity on the part of their attackers.
do you honestly advocate homosexual marriage and the raising of children? how does it work, kind of like she hate me but the opposite? a womans eggs are valuable! it takes nine months to make a child... would you only choose from lesbian females? isn't that just way too much? we have so many obvious problems in the black community at home and at large that why do we need this as well? would there be more or less instances of child molestation? is child sex next? and then animal sex? because there are people out there who think that's ok. there are people who want to fuck animals. and kids. and they do. are these people sick? where do you draw the line? what about golden showers and scatt and all that nasty business? is there a straightforward code of conduct in the homosexual arena? will the socialization of homosexuality create such a code? what about the rent boy thing? doesn't that suck (no pun intended) that youth have to submit sexually to their teachers and benefactors? it seems wrong to me and indicative of a social sickness.
>lastly, I don't see how homosexuality is necessarily seen as >a threat to the perpetuation of the black race. many or >most black gay men and womyn I know are having and raising >black children (or considering it).
well, if they are raising their kids black and proud of their african heritage and with a militant mindset filled with knowledge and upholding african unity and not overtly imposing their beliefs on them (which is very hard not to do! children do as you do not as you say!) then i suppose it's more good then bad. would these people have two or three children and devote their time and energy to raising them adequately? many of the problems i'm citing don't have homosexuality as a sole cause. i think in general the lack of community culture and education amongst black people is leaving us out there in the wilderness for any wolf to come along and steal away with.
let me ask you this, would you sacrifice your sexual lifestyle for africa?

were you ever molested or improperly dealt with by an elder or a member of the white 'race'? were you just born gay? if such is the case, if you are not a product of a dangerous environment, and are just gay, then so be it. a female ancestor born a man. it happens, i guess. if your ready to die for africa and her people, then so be it. we'll work the rest out on the other side.
>my twenty-five sense,
please hear me. i may sound over zealous, but i am honestly trying to find out the best way home. and i am willing to listen.
ok!
