Sexual Preferences
| by Daniel J. M. Galpin | July 24, 2007
There's a lot of talk regarding sexual preferences when it comes to the discussion of gay rights. Since when does one's choice or preference earn one the right to be in a special class of people? If so, why is it limited to gays and lesbians? What about those whose sexual choice is different than those of straight or gay? I mean, if all things are to be equal and we're not to discriminate regarding sexual preference, why do we prosecute rape, bestiality, incest or child molesters? They're just interacting in their sex of choice.
Maybe rape can be dismissed because its against the will of the second party, not so with bestiality. How do we know the animal is against it? Is your cat telling you she/he wants some when she/he is rubbing up against your leg? Or your dog, when he's acting out on your leg or some furniture in front of you? Are they trying to tell you something? I'm sure animal rights groups would stand out and shout: NOT SO! But how do we know?
Incest is also a sexual preference for some. Does society owe them special treatment? If not, why? Who declares one sexual preference better than another? Is it okay if both family members are under age and experimenting or learning via practice so when they have sex with their partners later in life they'll know how? Is it okay if both are of legal age, but for some reason they simply prefer their siblings over others? Or maybe a parent or relative has decided their child, niece or nephew is more appealing then their spouse? This of course enters into the age issue. Is the youngest member of the proposed sexual act an adult and thus it's okay? What if the younger member is under age, then the older is guilty of both incest and molestation or are they simply guilty of sexual preference?
I was approached by a 13 year old girl two years ago when I was 37, so she was willing and able to have sex. Would it have been okay for me to have sex with her? She approached me. She made the first move and wanted to explore alternatives with me. It was her sexual preference, right? Yet if I had, I could have been placed in jail and labeled a sex offender for life. Why? If we had done so, wouldn't it have been our sexual preference?
30 to 50 years ago and beyond in this country, homosexual behavior was considered equal with that of a child molester today, but now it's supposedly okay. Children are being adopted by them and they want the rights of marriage too. Why not let child molesters adopt too and or marry thieir choice in a sexual partner? Isn't it discrimination not to? Or do they have to wait another 30 to 50 years for society to declare it okay?
What's wrong with the above picture? Sexual preferences, regardless of what they are, do not deserve special treatment. Humankind is not the lawgiver of right and wrong. We are not the Supreme One. God has place in each of our hearts that which is right and wrong. We can resist what we know is wrong until we believe it to be right, yet it is still wrong. Sex outside of a marital relationship will bring with it consequences. Sex between a husband and a wife is natural whereas all the other sexual choices mentioned herein are not natural. Perversion begets perversion. The chain will never end, although perversion will always fight for it's right of expression.
I do agree, regardless of one's sexual preference, people should be treated humane. They should not be mistreated or beaten or made fun of, but this does not constitute acceptance of perverted behavior. It is NOT discrimination to oppose perverted sexual expression. Just as a murderer, thief or embezzler should be treated as a human being, so should one with abnormal sexual preferences. Equally each should be prosecuted. Those that engage in rape, bestiality, incest, child molestation and homosexual behavior are no different. Society will eventually collapse otherwise.
