Again, that's a problem with promiscuity, not with sexual orientation. Heterosexuals know how to be safe, if they choose to be safe or not, and homosexuals can and should too.Just as blacks are far more likely to be promiscuous and have HIV/AIDS. Statistically, blacks have a far lower life expectancy than whites.Promiscuity, NOT homosexuality, and NOT black skin, is an unhealthy lifestyle that parents shouldn't just be expected to automatically accept in their sons. There is no problem accepting your son's sexual orientation, because it isn't harmful, and you can't change it, and neither can he. Homosexuality isn't a lifestyle. (That's the only statement that needed rebutting).
@lydecker, --Again, that's a problem with promiscuity, not with sexual orientation.--I never said othewise. The fact is that, that homosexuality is very highly correlated with promiscuity/low-life-expectancy.Correlation is not necessarily a causative factor, but it often is.---There is no problem accepting your son's sexual orientation, because it isn't harmful, and you can't change it, and neither can he.---You're making a lot of assumptions there about it not being harmful, and it being 100% genetically determined.

It's amazing how many people commented with righteous indignation and obviously hadn't read the article.
