Dennis Prager, well-known to readers of this web site for my pointers to his superb series on Judeo-Christian values, wrote an excellent little piece today on the experience of one university student who “turned gay” while at university.
On the one hand she admits that it was due to influence at school that she turned gay, but then gets into an argument with Prager (on his radio show but reprinted in part in his column) about what her rationale for marriage might be.
It’s not a “smoking gun” or the be-all-end-all argument against gay marriage or anything remotely like that —it’s simply one anecdote and I found it very interesting (so liberals, don’t get your panties in a knot and email me eight thousand times feigning outrage yet again and mocking me for claiming I struck gold, you silly twits).
Perhaps the most important argument against same-sex marriage is that once society honors same-sex sex as it does man-woman sex, there will inevitably be a major increase in same-sex sex. People do sexually (as in other areas) what society allows and especially what it honors.
One excellent example illustrating this is an article recently written in the McGill University newspaper by McGill student Anna Montrose. In it, she wrote:
It’s hard to go through four years of a Humanities B.A. reading Foucault and Butler and watching ‘The L Word’ and keep your rigid heterosexuality intact. I don’t know when it happened exactly, but it seems I no longer have the easy certainty of pinning my sexual desire to one gender and never the other.
He goes on to include an interview he had with her, and the very ending of it—the last sentence—is very illuminating. Read it (1 minute).
