"Abnormal" vs. "unnatural" (etc)
Chose? Give me some evidence that a gay person "chose" that lifestyle. Why is it "abnormal"?
I sometimes ponder the meanings of "normal" and "abnormal". As I see it, the terms are rooted in statistics. As such, is anyone (fully) normal?
Anyway, "abnormal" does not equal "unnatural".
I am a "night person". The norm is "day person", thus I am abnormal. But that doesn't mean unnatural or improper.
As heterosexuality is the norm, calling homosexuality "abnormal" is technically correct, but that word does carry the implication of being something worse.
Abnormally yours,
Moose
