  • Some religious people condemn gays in public and practise it secretly, see Cardinal Keith O'Brien and Sexual Sin for one example and George Alan Rekers for another.
  • Homosexuality is a natural sexual orientation where people are attracted to their own sex. Many Christian make people feel guilty about the way they are and make others despise homosexuals. The ex-gay movement consists of Christians and Christian organisations that claim to make gay people heterosexual. In practise this movement makes gay people dissatisfied with themselves (more dissatisfied with themselves than before) and less healthy. There is a good and a a bad side to Christianity, see
  • No bisexuals, though, because as we all know, bisexuals don't exist. (Mike Yates is not bi, he just didn't realize Jo was a girl.)
  • "Homosexuality" is an anti-gay Moon Man song from The White Side of the Moon.
  • Certain strands of the Yellow Mythos incorporate homosexuality (primarily Lesbianism). This seems to have been introduced in The River of Night's Dreaming with its elements of lesbian BDSM. Stories and poems featuring, implying or referencing homosexuality: * Acting Strangely * The River of Night's Dreaming * The Yellow House * Yellow Dresses See also: * Sappho * Oscar Wilde * Bosie
  • Homosexuality carried not too much of a stigma in Rokugan. The only reason it might be considered bad was that it might make a samurai less loyal to his daimyo.
  • Homosexuality refers to sexual behavior with or attraction to people of the same sex, or to a homosexual orientation. As a sexual orientation, homosexuality refers to "having sexual and romantic attraction primarily or exclusively to members of one’s own sex"; "it also refers to an individual’s sense of personal and social identity based on those attractions, behaviors expressing them, and membership in a community of others who share them." Homosexaulity, bisexuality, and heterosexuality together make up the three main classifications of sexual orientation and are the factors in the Heterosexual-homosexual continuum. The exact proportion of the population that is homosexual is difficult to estimate reliably, but most recent studies place it at 2–7%.
  • Homosexuality refers to the condition that includes same-sex attractions, feelings, desires, sexual behavior, identity, and all its associated aspects, such as issues with masculinity, self-perception, emotional dependencies, and relationships. Some people prefer to use the terms same-sex attraction (SSA) or same-gender attraction (SGA) to avoid the clinical and psychiatric misunderstandings that may come by using the term homosexuality. A person who experiences same-sex attraction or same-gender attraction may experience For more information, see Same-sex attraction.
  • Like the peacock, they are birds whose coloration and mating rituals seem not to serve any function in terms of Survival of the Fittest; in fact, scientists believe that evolution should have killed them off a long time ago. Despite this, they are common in all places today. Homosexuality used to be reviled, even denied. Bird-owners simply wanted to deny that homos had sex in the first place. Religious groups suggested that these colorful creatures should be allowed to fly free, but that any and all sexuality should rightfully be done in a lab, by breeders.
  • Homosexual characters are romantically and/or sexually attracted to the same gender. If you want to be less formal, you can call them "gay" or "lesbian" or, y'know, just use their names. There's a severe shortage of good homosexual characters in fiction, so people who write fanfiction often write a straight character as gay. This can be done well or done badly; and while it's technically an AU, it's usually just called slash, which refers specifically to same-sex romance and is usually the reason someone would write a canonically straight character as gay or bi.
  • Homosexuality refers to Human sexual behavior with or without attraction to people of the same sex, or to a sexual orientation. As a sexual orientation, homosexuality refers to "an enduring pattern of or disposition to experience sexual, affectional, or romantic attractions primarily to" people of the same sex; "it also refers to an individual’s sense of personal and social identity based on those attractions, behaviors expressing them, and membership in a community of others who share them." The exact proportion of the population that is homosexual is difficult to estimate reliably, but studies place it at 2-7%.
  • The issue of Homosexuality within Christianity has become a matter of intense theological debate among some Christians, with ongoing argument over whether homosexuality, and specifically homosexual sex, is immoral or a sin.
