PSEUDOLIBERALISM

i was talkin to two of my friends about GAY RIGHTS the other day.. and we had vastly different opinions..i mean it is one of those endless arguments..but i decided to spell it out nywayz,since my blog has become my venting machine for nowadays.basically it was both the argument and the way they chose to defend their stand,that is bothering me....
MY STAND- i feel that 1.being gay is not a crime
2.what is anybody's problem if two ppl,from whatever sex choose to spend their time together,and be happy.i mean 'live and let live' rite???!!!i know endless number of 'hetero sexual' ppl who are not happy,cant stand each other,hate each other..so isn't it nice if atleast some ppl in the world,in whatever way manage to find happiness???!!!
3.it might not be common but it cannot be unnatural....i mean nature comprises of us.and if ppl are born or develop a sexuality or sexual preferences different from us,how is it their fault???? i know how all things indian want to blame the 'westernisation' for all things new... but we have so many villages in our country with no electricity and no television and not an english speakin soul,where ppl develop different sexualities.i mean if u want statistics maybe we can look into(sadly) the same sex molestation charges from these god forsaken places,which indicates how the culprits frustration at being 'uncommon' and unaccepatable led to perversion of the mind

i know the old argument goes that men's purpose in the world is to spread their seed and women to reproduce ...but what if the purpose changed now!?!what if ,this is a kind of evolution of human purpose where the goal is self happiness and not baby producing machinery!!!maybe its even nature's or karma's or god's own method of contraception!!! what if?????!!!!!!
and these are not thoughts i m simply echoing coz alotta ppl have started talkin bout 'gay rights' nowadays,or because the 'evil westernisation';-D has made it the 'in' thing... i really do believe it... i mean we are surrounded by so many mysteries of nature,that i dont believe their can be any absolutes..certainly not constants governed by old doctrines written by even more close minded ppl thousands of years ago!!!!
THEIR ARGUMENT-
ok so yeah my friends didn't agree with any of this...and instead they believe that the only status they can give a sexuality of that kind is to call it a 'freak of nature'..when i insisted on not callin it unnatural... and they believe that like other 'freaks of natur' say mental retardation,congenital deformities..this is also one such disease that requires treatment..coz for some reason these ppl pose a threat to themselves and the society at large....

ok i m not gonna justify anythin..and since my entry into adulthood i have realised that DIFFERENT PPL HAVE DIFFERENT OPINIONS..and life is just much better if u realise that soon enough.. but apparently everybody does not think so. coz not only did my friend very eloquently (if i may say so) keep harping on the same thing..but got so mad at me for havin a different opinion that she called me A PSEUDOLIBERAL....gasp!!!rite?!k dont get me wrong she is a real sweet girl otherwise..but i felt so deeply injured by this attack coz its such a supercillious judgement passed on my character based on a difference of opinion!!!ppl need to lighten up a bit,huh!?nyway it made me realise,atleast for some part, what causes wars:-D lol...so i let it go,except for writing bout it on my blog several days later;-)....
oh yeah I AM NOT GAY...i just have opinions on things.......
k till next time
