What's wrong with being gay?

[Daedalus X]

This thread is a continuation of an off topic conversation from here.

First, I think that we all agree that it's important to promote understanding, respect, and equality for all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation. Everyone should be treated with dignity and allowed to express their identity without fear of discrimination or harm.


Question for debate is LGTBQIA2S+ a harmless social contagion, or are there serious unintended consequences awaiting the individuals and societies that are going down this road?

Logical fallacy: ad hominem

Ad hominem is a Latin term for arguments that attack the person making a claim rather than the claim itself.

No. You've got that wrong.
If you do use ad-hominem you're not attacking a person, but their claim (whatever that might be).
In effect you would be saying that this person's claim must be correct because they are (for example) a professor of that subject. So ad-hominem claims this person is right because of who they are and not because of their reasoning.
