Actually, Carson's argument, even though he never meant it this way, is an illustrative way to show these or those that think homosexuality is the same as being a race or gender, need only ask themselves whether going to jail could in any way force someone to go black, if white, or turn female if male?
Often on these forums those that are in support of gay rights will say that being gay is a
state of mind, as if this actually has any material or practical meaning within the proper syntax and understanding of linguistics. A state of mind is always fluid, almost never static, and ones state of mind is wholly dependent on the circumstances and influences they are embroiled in. For instance, I'm not a murderer, and I have never killed anyone (that's my story and I'm sticking to it
), however, sometimes when I watch the news, or I encounter evil, I have often placed myself in that mindset whereby, I actually think if presented with the opportunity, I would indeed take someone's life. Anger, emotions, rage, all of which are uncontrollable urges we have no real understanding of, but at the time, other than actually taking action, I am for all intents and purposes a murderer, or someone capable of it. This is what a state of mind means in any context, and syntax is properly established and logical, however, until I actual do take action I am not a murderer, but the narrative from the gay left is that, regardless, I am still a murderer just like whether I was actually being gay or acting gay.
Illogical, right? You betcha, not only is it illogical, it psychological gobbily goop, or word-speak! In order to be defined as something, one needs to actually do that something, but how does anyone know without knowing the mind of the individual? The answer is we define them by their actions at any given moment. Outside of rape, a man consensually having sex with another man, or women having sex with another woman is by all measures acting in a way that defines them as gay. An urge of sexual gratification can be handled simply by self-pleasuring, but no, in jail or anywhere else, the urge for self pleasure or pleasure seems to only be satisfied by the action of homosexuality. The leap from sexual need turns from an urge to a conscious choice, and the pattern or made by which it manifest isn't nearly as important that the leap is what defines our state of mind at the time.
It's why some younger females experiment with bi-sexuality or exclusive lesbianism, and why some men do at early ages, but what I find curious is that, boys who experiment seem to adopt the almost always exclusive homosexual identification, whilst young ladies, either adopt an adult bi-sexuality (until later in life where they ultimately choose one or the other but rarely both) or heterosexuality, with only a very small margin of those younger females that experiment choose or adopt an identity that is exclusively homosexual. The differences in the sexes and sexuality is often overlooked in psyche circles, why? I have no real way of knowing, but I suspect that it
feels uncomfortable for them to explore with the intuitive answer being females can choose their sexuality more often than not, whilst men seem to not be as so fluid, suggesting that, at least with females sexuality is a choice. Something I suspect leaves psychologist and apologists really confused.
I believe that sexuality is glaring more or less complex in women in that they appear to have a better handle over it, whereas with men, it seems to get them early and sticks more often than not. I have my theories as to why, mostly in prefrontal context development between the sexes, but nothing I can prove conclusively. The inescapable fact is though, that sexuality to one degree or another is fluid, somewhat of a choice, and defined by ones state of mind at any given moment.
