I know this is going to be unpopular , but having family that started blackwater is pretty damned swampy . <| sep |> I ' m not sure , I ' m just repeating what someone else told me . <| sep |> It is a flaw in nature . A person that has no desires for the opposite sex will not reproduce and therefore their line would die out . But we live in a modern world where someone naturally reproducing doesn ' t matter , and isn ' t the only end goal of life anymore . Doesn ' t take away that it is not a mental disorder . Even the DSMII , the APA ' s standard classifications for mental disorders that is used by many countries included it till the 1970 ' s when all the gay people started fighting it by protesting the APA conventions in San Fransico , because it hurt their feelings . There was no scientific breakthrough which led the APA to change the classification , no new facts . it was the simple reality that gay people started to kick up a fuss . With all this said , I have no problem at all with gay people . Be gay and enjoy your life .
