Ben Carson forms presidential exploratory committee[W:175,246, 296]

Re: Ben Carson forms presidential exploratory committee

While its true some are raped (and are considered therefore gay by other inmates), for others that's clearly not the case and it appears to be by choice.
Prison sexuality - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Prisons are separated by gender. If you take away someone's choices for sex... then blame them for having sex where there is no choice in kind doesn't make one gay... yeah... your wikipedia source is beyond weak.

It makes them a man who has sex with men.
 
Re: Ben Carson forms presidential exploratory committee

Thats the medical descriptor used.

Well, no. The APA(that would be the appropriate place to go for a clinical descriptor) says this: Answers to Your Questions For a Better Understanding of Sexual Orientation and Homosexuality

Sexual orientation refers to an enduring pattern of emotional, romantic and/or sexual attractions to men, women or both sexes. Sexual orientation also refers to a person's sense of identity based on those attractions, related behaviors and membership in a community of others who share those attractions. Research over several decades has demonstrated that sexual orientation ranges along a continuum, from exclusive attraction to the other sex to exclusive attraction to the same sex. However, sexual orientation is usually discussed in terms of three categories: heterosexual (having emotional, romantic or sexual attractions to members of the other sex), gay/lesbian (having emotional, romantic or sexual attractions to members of one's own sex) and bisexual (having emotional, romantic or sexual attractions to both men and women).

I love watching liberals with no medical education telling me how to question patients. Men who have sex with men is a way to find out if they are at risk for disease without making a value judgement. Many MSM's dont consider themselves homosexual.
 
Re: Ben Carson forms presidential exploratory committee

lolz I asked if you aren't straight. You claim the answer remains no-fair enough. Like I said I respect your right to get married.

I am married. Unlike you. I am married to a woman. Now please stop harassing me to have sex with you or I will report you.

Nothing you said in any way indicated anything other than what I just said. That you still do not understand the difference between orientation and action suggests you might educate yourself on the issue before saying further stupid things.

Ben Carson forms presidential exploratory committee | Fox News



I didn't really expect Carson to run. But from the look of this it sounds like he is actually extremely likely to make the attempt. I guess that makes sense considering he's hovering in 2nd or 3rd place in the polls though. I still find it extremely unlikely he'll win the nomination with his lack of political and campaign experience.

Dr. Ben Carson is quite the character. I don't think for one minute this creepy guy will win the GOP nomination. Why yesterday, while being interviewed, (I forgot who the interviewer was) Carson was asked about his views on Gays. He, mind you, is a Neurosurgeon, said, "being Gay is a choice." What an asinine thing to say. One would expect a low-information, never left the farm type, to state something so dumb, but a Neurosurgeon?! My Gawd, what a dummy!

Orientation is how the individual sees himself/herself. But it does not change behavior. Theres a difference.

Do you think being gay is something quantified in medicine? Theres no lab test for gay.

Well, no. I posted what the APA says orientation is, as they are kinda what you would call experts on the subject. You just might want to go read what I quoted from them. It will be an education.

Experts? :lol:

I practice medicine. I have data and experience much more accurate and up to date than what you think you've found.
I dont need to read what you wrote-I know where you got it and how, but more importantly I know the most up to date info. See how this works?

Are you trying to suggest homosexuality is a medical condition? Want to provide some actual links to support your claim of "medical data"?

Homosexuality the sexual orientation? No. MSM? Very much so yes-in that the risks are objectively and therefore medically undeniable.

MSM is a behavior. Homosexuality is an orientation. To use smaller words, MSM refers to what certain people do, homosexuality refers to what certain people are. This is really basic stuff.

Oh, and by the way, MSM are not necessarily homosexuals.

Redress, I already said that, over several posts.

Glad to see you are paying attention.

I did not say there was a lab test for being Gay. Are you suffering from an over active imagination? As a doctor, Dr. Carson should be familiar with human nature and that Nature is diverse in its creation of all species. Civilization created the structure: two sexes, man and woman scenario for marriage. Nature created humans with different sexual needs; sometimes a child is born with both male and female genitalia and at other times this sexual difference is not so obvious at birth. Humans are diverse in their sexual needs. There are Lesbians, Transgender, Gays etc. The point is most reasonably educated people will agree that Gays are naturally born and for a doctor to say being Gay is a choice just illustrates his profound bias.

Even a psychiatrist will tell you that these things are unknown and theoretical. You act like its settled fact.
 
Re: Ben Carson forms presidential exploratory committee[W:175,246]

It's great to see that Ben Carson is basing his political platform on the pressing issues of the day. Such as whether or not prison can turn a man gay.

What a f**king loser.

I agree with you...Saving lives and posting on a forum must take lots of your time. Reading actual posts would take away from saving lives or posting.
